A fuzzy analytic network process method for risk prioritization in freeway PPP projects: an Iranian case study

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focused on prioritizing significant risks in freeway PPP projects applying a fuzzy analytic network process (FANP) method for overcoming the problems of interdependencies and feedback among different risk-ranking alternatives.

Multi-period sustainable and integrated recycling network for municipal solid waste – A case study in Tehran

TL;DR: In this paper, a multi-period mixed integer linear programming model is proposed to design the network optimally as well as to optimally operate the network, which involves decisions related to facilities selection, capacity level and location of facilities, allocation of solid waste to facilities, transportation of waste among facilities and distribution of recycled materials.

Fuzzy approach for the selection of third party reverse logistics provider

TL;DR: In this article, a structured model for evaluating and selecting the best third party reverse logistics provider (3PRLP) under fuzzy environment for the battery industry is proposed, where multi-criteria decision-making tools such as analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and fuzzy analytic hierarchical process (FAHP) are adopted to solve the problem of selection of 3PRLP.

The Analytic Hierarchy Process

TL;DR: Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) as mentioned in this paper is a systematic procedure for representing the elements of any problem hierarchically, which organizes the basic rationality by breaking down a problem into its smaller constituent parts and then guides decision makers through a series of pairwise comparison judgments to express the relative strength or intensity of impact of the elements in the hierarchy.

A fuzzy extension of Saaty's priority theory

TL;DR: A fuzzy version of Saaty's pairwise comparison method (1980) extended by de Graan and Lootsma (1981), adapted in such a way, that decision-makers are asked to express their opinions in fuzzy numbers with triangular membership functions.
