GIS-based multicriteria analysis as decision support in flood risk management [PDF]

In this report we develop a GIS-based multicriteria flood risk assessment and mapping approach. This approach has the ability a) to consider also flood risks which are not measured in monetary terms, b) to show the spatial distribution of these multiple ...

Impact of Packaging and Recycling Systems on Material Recirculation: A Stage‐Decomposition Model

Packaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.
A system‐level view emerges from decomposing recycling into four stages (participation, collection, sorting and process yield), diagnosing constraints and targeting interventions. Cumulative equivalent uses (CEUs) quantify long‐term retention, revealing marginal improvements at high baselines generate disproportionately larger gains than low‐baseline ...

Multicriteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) Methods in Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) : a Comparison of Private Passenger Vehicles

Operations Research and Decisions, 2018
Analogies between the life cycle assessment (LCA) and multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA) methodologies have been discussed as well as LCA as an MCDA problem for resolving the trade-offs between multiple environmental objectives. The objective of this

From Prediction to Prevention: An Explainable GeoAI Framework for Flood Susceptibility and Urban Exposure Assessment Using Machine and Deep Learning Models

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rapid urbanisation and intensifying rainfall have increased cities' vulnerability to flooding, posing major challenges to sustainable development. Although machine learning models have improved flood prediction accuracy, most remain limited by their black‐box nature and lack of actionable insights.

Advancing Green Human Resource Management Aspects and Practices in Organizations: The Power of Fuzzy Importance Performance Analysis

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drawing on intersections between the Ability–Motivation–Opportunity (AMO) framework and the Resource‐Based View of the Firm (RBV‐F), this research critiques key convergent and divergent theoretical aspects of Green HRM. This approach led to the formulation and implementation of a Fuzzy Importance–Performance Analysis (FIPA) method to evaluate ...

Behavioral Analysis of Aggregation in Multicriteria Decision Aid [PDF]

, 2000
The most often used operator to aggregate criteria in decision making problems is the classical weighted arithmetic mean. In many problems however, the criteria considered interact, and a substitute to the weighted arithmetic mean has to be adopted.

Project Management Methodologies of International Development Agencies and the Concept of Sustainable Project Management

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research explores to what extent the ideas and notions of sustainable project management (SPM) are reflected in the project management methodologies of three selected international development agencies. A conceptual framework is developed, and a deductive content analysis is performed.

Selecting essential information for biosurveillance--a multi-criteria decision analysis.

PLoS ONE, 2014
The National Strategy for Biosurveillance defines biosurveillance as "the process of gathering, integrating, interpreting, and communicating essential information related to all-hazards threats or disease activity affecting human, animal, or plant health
