This study proposes a novel methodology for constructing intuitionistic $\tilde{\overline{X}}-\tilde{R}$ and $\tilde{\overline{X}}-\tilde{S}$ control charts by incorporating a ranking method developed explicitly for triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers....

We address information fusion and spatial structure modeling in high-dimensional fuzzy multi-attribute decision-making by proposing a novel framework that couples Triangular Intuitionistic Fuzzy Numbers (TIFNs) with the Plant Growth Simulation Algori...

Triangular intuitionistic fuzzy number (TIFN) is a more generalized platform for expressing imprecise, incomplete, and inconsistent information when solving multi-criteria decision-making problems, as well as for expressing and reflecting the evaluat...

The aim of this study was to develop a novel intuitionistic Type-2 fuzzy inference system (IT-2 FIS) which adopts a parameterized Yager-generating function and particle swarm optimization (PSO). In IT-2 FIS, the intuitionistic Type-2 is set as a fuzz...

Estimating loss reserves is a crucial activity for non-life insurance companies. It involves adjusting the expected evolution of claims over different periods of active policies and their fluctuations. The chain-ladder (CL) technique is recognized as...

Developing hydrogen-based multi-microgrid systems (HBMMSs) is vital to the low-carbon energy transition, which can promote the utilization of renewable energy and reduce carbon emissions. However, there have been no studies presenting a sustainabilit...

To address the challenges of high-dimensional complexity and increasing heterogeneity in expert opinions, this study proposes a novel numerical aggregation model for multi-expert decision making based on triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (TIFNs...

Electric vehicle charging station (EVCS) site selection occupies a prominent position in the development of the electric community to solve the hard problem of Electric Vehicle (EV) charging. However, two critical issues have not been solved by the e...

Inbound tourism has become an important indicator of destination openness, service capacity, cultural communication, and sustainable governance. However, existing evaluations often separate visitor experience, destination competitiveness, and sustain...

To address the impact of the dynamic evolution of flood disaster chains and decision-makers’ (DMs’) risk preference heterogeneity on group decision-making, this study proposes a social network group decision-making method that integrates...

In this paper, Normalized Weighted Bonferroni Mean (NWBM) and Normalized Weighted Bonferroni Harmonic Mean (NWBHM) aggregation operators are proposed. Besides, we check the properties thereof, which include idempotency, monotonicity, commutativity, a...

This paper aims toward the improvement of the limitations of traditional failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) and examines the crucial failure modes and components for railway train operation. In order to overcome the drawbacks of current FMEA, th...

Trapezoidal-valued intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (TrVIFNs) are the real generalizations of intuitionistic fuzzy numbers, interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy numbers, and triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers, which effectively model real-life probl...

Over the past few decades, several researchers and professionals have focused on the development and application of multi-criteria group decision making (MCGDM) methods under a fuzzy environment in different areas and disciplines. This complex resear...

Several life contingency agreements are based on the assumption that policyholders have impaired life expectancy attributable to factors, such as lifestyle, social class, or preexisting health issues. Quantifying two crucial variables, augmented deat...

T-spherical fuzzy set (TSFS) is a fuzzy layout aiming to provide a larger room for the processing of uncertain information-based data where four aspects of unpredictable information are studied. The frame of picture fuzzy sets (PFSs) and intuitionist...

This study seeks to advance group decision-making in project management by introducing a hybrid intuitionistic fuzzy brainstorming (IFBS) method tailored for identifying and assessing earthquake risks in worn-out urban fabrics in Iran. By integrating...

The third-party platform named ECO system is used by many transnational companies to monitor the sustainability performance of their global suppliers because of its easiness and shareability. Nonetheless, methods used in this platform for evaluating...

Hydrogen is a potential source of imminent clean energy in the future, with its transportation playing a crucial role in allowing large-scale deployment. The challenge lies in selecting an effective, sustainable, and scalable transportation alternati...

With respect to different confidence on evaluation result from different decision-makers to the hybrid multi-attribute with risk, an approach to group decision- making based on prospect theory and projection theory is proposed. Firstly, a tuple is es...

Foamed asphalt recycling technology can effectively recover waste asphalt pavement materials and achieve the sustainable utilization of resources. This technology’s core equipment is asphalt foaming equipment. Since the asphalt foaming device&r...

The aim of this research is to propose a hybrid decision-making model for evaluation and selection of quality methods whose application leads to improved reliability of manufacturing in the process industry. Evaluation of failures and determination o...

Dombi t-norm (DTN) and t-conorm (TCN) are among the most effective triangular norms in fuzzy systems for aggregation purposes. The environment of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy (IVIF) set gives us precision in expressing uncertain information b...

In order to adapt to ever-changing customer needs and satisfy them, good Business Process Management (BPM) in Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) is crucial. The target group of this research is production SMEs whose BPM can be monitored respec...
