The Use of the AHP in Civil Engineering Projects [PDF]

Most engineering, economic, social and institutional decisions are made with explicit notions of optimal behavior and implicit human motivations. In such a process, manipulation of both tangible and intangible data and satisfaction of multiple criteria ...

Built‐to‐Suit Telecoms Contractor Selection Using an Interval Type‐3 Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 9, September 2026.
Selecting build‐to‐suit telecom contractors is a high‐stakes decision shaped by vague expert judgments. This study develops an interval type‐3 fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process whose secondary credibility grade models uncertainty about the judgments themselves.

Climate‐Driven Shifts in Wind Energy Potential Across Central Asia Based on a Multi‐Model Ensemble and Tier‐Based Assessment

Global Challenges, Volume 10, Issue 9, September 2026.
This study presents a climate‐informed framework for assessing future wind energy potential across Central Asia using bias‐corrected Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) 100 m wind‐speed projections. Integrating Weibull characterization, seasonal variability, exceedance probabilities, and scenario sensitivity, the framework identifies ...

Artificial intelligence driven diet‐intestinal microbiota‐host health integration: A four‐dimensional paradigm for advancing host wellness research

iMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2026.
This graphical abstract presents a novel Diet‐Artificial Intelligence (AI)‐intestinal Microbiota–Host Health paradigm integrating microbiota‐centric pathways and an AI‐driven multi‐omics workflow. Diet shapes gut bacteria that regulate intestinal mucosal integrity, immune signaling, and gut–brain neurotransmitters to influence host health.

Do Forest Fires and Land Degradation Undermine Environmental Sustainability? Evidence From China

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 15, Page 11598-11612, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Forest fires (FFs), land degradation (LD), and ineffective land use reduce carbon sinks, disrupt ecosystems, and increase greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, creating challenges for environmental sustainability (ES). Addressing these challenges through targeted green investments (GIs) and effective land reforms (LRs) aligns with sustainable ...
