This dissertation focuses on the use of three new combinational hybrid approaches to solve a rational decision problem. Even though Multi-Attribute Utility Theory (MAUT) and the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), and the Analytic Network Process (ANP), are all long established theories, their practical applications continue to grow and generate new knowledge. As a case study approach, there exists a knowledge gap concerning the use of these MCDM methods in the area of environmental remediation, and more especially, in situations that involve radioactive materials. From this, and as borne out by the literature review discussed herein, a problem statement is thus …

Abstract: The paper analyzes the related influence factors when closed residential area is open to its surrounding roads. Using the traffic flow theory, the evaluation system of AHP and vacation queuing model based on Markov chain are established. After describing and quantifying the road traffic impact about the open community, we put forward some suggestions about the open of closed residential community. At the same time, the evaluation and improvement rate are proposed under different conditions such as changing the structure of the community, changing the surrounding road structure and changing the traffic flow off. In consideration of traffic lights, …
