Abstract

A methodology developed specifically for the evaluation of requirements of materials intended to high-demanding applications is the stringency levels methodology. The objective of this work is to perform a sensitivity analysis of the methodology of multicriteria stringency levels for the evaluation of technological requirements of materials, creating a new methodology that provides a final results studying variability that let us make an objective decision. The case study has been the evaluation of steels used in the manufacture of components housed in the primary loop of a nuclear power plant. To ease the calculation of the stringency levels, the algorithm has been computed in Labview®. Considering the dispersion that can generate the numerical weighting process, the analysis has shown that the variability in calculated values is not significant. The analysis proposed with this methodology could be used, in the future, for the selection of materials for innovative manufacturing processes.
