Background: This paper proposes a novel hybrid group decision making methodology to solve a coalition-formation problem for cooperative replenishment with multiple firms to achieve operational efficiency. We consider a case of horizontal cooperation between firms, and we investigate the profitability of horizontal cooperation when designing collaborative contracts. Methods: This study presents the application of a hybrid approach for group decision support for the coalition-formation problem. Multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) and intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) theory have been integrated to provide group decision support under consensus achievement. In addition, this study employs the entropy method to identify the weights of the decision makers. Results: The proposed integrated approach has been further studied through an illustrative example. The decision procedure used here is simply structured so that it may easily be implemented with a computer. Conclusions: This research may be beneficial to decision makers, researchers and organizations in helping them to understand project based evaluation in order to design and plan better horizontal cooperation.

Wstęp: W artykule zaproponowano nową metodologię podejmowania decyzji dotyczących tworzenia koalicji między wieloma firmami w celu osiągnięcia wydajności operacyjnej. Rozważany jest przypadek horyzontalnej współpracy między firmami, a następnie badana jest opłacalność współpracy horyzontalnej przy projektowaniu umów o współpracę. Metody: W pracy przedstawiono zastosowanie podejścia hybrydowego do wspomagania decyzji grupowych w przypadku problemu koalicji. Zintegrowano wielokryterialne podejmowanie decyzji (MCDM) i intuicyjną teorię zbiorów rozmytych (IFS), aby zapewnić grupowe wsparcie decyzji przy osiągnięciu konsensusu. Ponadto zastosowano metodę entropii do identyfikacji wag osób podejmujących decyzje. Wyniki: Proponowane zintegrowane podejście zostało poddane dalszej analizie za pomocą przykładu. Zastosowana tutaj procedura decyzyjna ma prostą strukturę, dzięki czemu można ją łatwo wdrożyć za pomocą komputera. Wnioski: Badania te mogą być korzystne dla decydentów, badaczy i organizacji, pomagając im zaprojektować i zaplanować współpracę horyzontalną.

The application of micro components in various fields such as biomedical, medical, automobile, electronics, automobile and aviation significantly improved. To manufacture the micro components, different techniques exist in the non-traditional machining process. In those techniques, electrochemical micromachining (ECMM) exhibits a unique machining nature, such as no tool wear, non-contact machining process, residual stress, and heat-affected zone. Hence, in this study, micro holes were fabricated on the copper work material. The sodium nitrate (NaNO₃) electrolyte is considered for the experiments. During the experiments, magnetic fields strength along with UV rays are applied to the electrolyte. The L₁₈ orthogonal array (OA) experimental design is planned with electrolyte concentration (EC), machining voltage (MV), duty cycle (DC) and electrolyte temperature (ET). The optimization techniques such as similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS), VlseKriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje (VIKOR) and grey relational analysis (GRA) were employed to find the optimal parameter combinations. The entropy weight method is used to assess the weight of responses such as MR and OC. The optimal combination using TOPSIS, VIKOR and GRA methods shows the same results for the experimental runs 8, 9 and 7, and the best optimal parameter combination is 28 g/l EC, 11 V MV, 85 % DC and 37°C ET. Based on the analysis of variance (ANOVA) results, electrolyte concentration plays a significant role by contributing 86 % to machining performance. The second and least contributions are DC (3.86 %) and ET (1.74 %) respectively on the performance. Furthermore, scanning electron microscope (SEM) images analyses are carried out to understand the effect of magnetic field and heated electrolyte on the work material.

In the contemporary period of the green economy, energy planning has grown more complicated due to the inclusion of numerous standards, including technical, social, economic, and environmental. This, in turn, restricts the ability of decision-makers to make the most efficient use of energy resources. In addition, the difficulty of energy planning is exacerbated by topographical restrictions on renewable energy systems, the majority of which are found in nature. Based on factors such as total installed capacity, total reservoir capacity, total surface capacity, the height, length, number of units, and the cost of the dam were used to determine the finest hydro power project in India, according to this study. For performance evaluation, multi criteria decision making (MCDM) techniques like analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and TOPSIS (technique for order reference by similarity to ideal solution) are used in conjunction with VIKOR (vlekriterijumsko kompromisno rangiranje) for performance evaluation. AHP is used to calculate the weights of each criteria. The TOPSIS and VIKOR methods will utilise these weights to choose the optimal option. For the purpose of demonstrating the approaches’ applicability, an in-depth case study of various hydropower facilities in India was carried out.
