Analytic Network Process (ANP) for solar power plant location problem
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Institute of Industrial Engineers, 2010)Solar energy is the most readily available source of energy and one of the most important sources of the renewable energy because it is non-polluting and helps in lessening the greenhouse effect. Main problem of establishing a solar power plant is to determine its location. In the presence of many location alternatives and evaluation criteria a multiple-criteria decision making problem arises. In this work the location problem will be solved by using Analytic Network Process (ANP) to figure out ...

Determining master schedule of surgical operations by integer programming: A case study
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Institute of Industrial Engineers, 2010)Fixed amounts of available Operating Room (OR) time compatibility of ORs and restrictions related to surgery equipment and surgeon availabilities complicate the process of preparing the master surgical schedule at hospitals. In this research an integer programming model and its application at Etiler World Eye Hospital (in Turkey) are presented in order to create a master surgical schedule that includes the most common surgery types on weekly basis and resolves surgeon equipment and operating room ...

Fuzzy AHP-GRA approach to evaluating energy sources: a case of Turkey
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(EMERALD GROUP PUBLISHING LTD, 2020)Purpose Since the demand for energy has dramatically increased in the countries which have fast-growing population and economy, they have faced with a critical problem of how to evaluate a set of potential energy sources (i.e. nuclear, natural gas, bio, geothermal, hydro, wind and solar) and choose the ultimate energy source for their needs. On the other hand, this critical problem turns into a multiple-criteria decision-making (MCDM) in the presence of a set of energy source alternatives and ...

Multi - objective location routing problem for nuclear power plants and nuclear waste disposal centers
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Kadir Has University, 2011)Nuclear energy is used by many countries and has already taken its place among the future sources of energy. in Turkey nuclear energy has recently been accepted by the majority of people as an alternative energy source. As a result inspections and research have accelerated to establish a nuclear power plant. in this thesis a new multi-objective location-routing mathematical model is developed and implemented using actual data for Turkey. The model selects best locations for nuclear power plants ...
