Abstract

In this paper, a fuzzy decision making method is proposed which is based on the fuzzy set theory and the hierarchical structure analysis. The method employs two key concepts: linguistic variables and fuzzy numbers. The linguistic variables and fuzzy numbers are used to represent the decision-maker's subjective assessments for the decision criteria and the decision alternatives versus the decision criteria. The fuzzy mean operator is used to aggregate the decision-maker's subjective assessments and the total integral value method is used to rank the decision alternatives. As a case study, the method is applied to evaluating the spent fuel storage options in Korea.
