Group Decision-Making Model With Hesitant Multiplicative Preference Relations Based on Regression Method and Feedback Mechanism

IEEE Access, 2018
The hesitant multiplicative preference relation (HMPR) was initially put forward in 2013. Utilizing the HMPR, the decision makers can give some possible preference values from the Saaty's 1-9 scale for pairwise comparisons over alternatives.

Bistable Networks Enable Complex Shape Changes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Transition‐controlled metamaterials are networks of bistable mechanical memory that store local binary states and express them as global shape change. By decoupling low‐force programming from high‐force holding, a single lattice is reconfigured into distinct 2D profiles and 3D surfaces without continuous actuation, enabling reusable morphing materials ...

An Algorithm for Interval-Valued Intuitionistic Fuzzy Preference Relations in Group Decision Making Based on Acceptability Measurement and Priority Weight Determination

Algorithms, 2018
Group decision making with intuitionistic fuzzy preference information contains two key issues: acceptability measurement and priority weight determination. In this paper, we investigate the above two issues with respect to multiplicative interval-valued

Breaking the Durability–Power Trade‐Off: Boron‐Directed Faceted O3 Cathodes for High‐Rate Sodium‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Boron‐oxide‐assisted particle engineering stabilizes O3‐type layered cathodes for sodium‐ion batteries by mitigating phase transitions and lattice strain. Acting as flux and structural modifier, boron forms submicron hexagonal platelets with (003) facets and expanded Na‐layer spacing, enabling rapid Na⁺ diffusion and mechanical resilience.

Farmers' Preferences for Gene Editing Crops and Influencing Factors

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gene editing (GE) is gaining momentum worldwide, but limited data on UK farmers' preferences hinders our understanding of its potential impact amid deregulation debates. Based on a survey of 200 English arable farmers, we employ a Latent Class Analysis and Multinomial Logit regressions to investigate current preferences for GE crops.

The Role of Actual and Purported Origin in e‐Commerce Wine Pricing: Evidence From Italian and French Names on Labels

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The origin of a product, if associated with good quality, can contribute to building a positive collective reputation, leading to a potential price premium. However, it is conceivable that a producer markets a product by evoking symbols, images, words, and values typical of places other than where it was designed or produced, creating a ...

Mapping the Innovation DNA of Agribusiness Firms: A Multi‐Method Analysis of Strategic Capabilities and Performance

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Innovation is essential for competitiveness in agribusiness facing dynamic environments. This study examines how market orientation, marketing, relational, and social capabilities influence innovation performance. Using data from 751 Spanish firms and a multi‐method approach that integrates Structural Equation Modeling (PLS‐SEM), Necessary ...

Solid particles focusing, orienting, and de‐focusing in planar Poiseuille flow

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Three‐dimensional, time‐dependent lattice‐Boltzmann simulations of neutrally buoyant particles in planar Poiseuille flow have been performed. The particles are spherical or cylindrical (the latter with a length over diameter ratios in the range 1/3 to 2) and have volume fraction ranging from virtually zero (one particle) to 0.15. The channel's

A Novel Group Decision-Making Method with Adjustment Willingness in a Distributed Hesitant Fuzzy Linguistic Environment

Mathematics
This research aims to construct a group decision-making (GDM) method that considers decision makers’ (DMs’) willingness to adjust in a distributed hesitant fuzzy linguistic (DHFL) environment.
