Selecting a supplier for emergency medical supplies during disasters can be considered a typical multiple attribute group decision-making (MAGDM) problem. MAGDM is an intriguing common problem that is rife with ambiguity and uncertainty. It becomes much more challenging when governments and medical care enterprises adjust their priorities in response to the escalating problems and the effectiveness of the actions taken in different countries. As decision-making problems become increasingly complicated nowadays, a growing number of experts are likely to use T-spherical fuzzy sets (T-SFSs) rather than exact numbers. T-SFS is a novel extension of fuzzy sets that can fully convey ambiguous and complicated information in MAGDM. The objective of this paper is to propose a MAGDM methodology based on interaction and feedback mechanism (IFM) and T-SFS theory. In it, we first introduce T-SF partitioned Bonferroni mean (T-SFPBM) and T-SF weighted partitioned Bonferroni mean (T-SFWPBM) operators to fuse the evaluation information provided by experts. Then, an IFM is designed to achieve a consensus between multiple experts. In the meantime, we also find the weights of experts by using T-SF information. Furthermore, in light of the combination of IFM and T-SFWPBM operator, an MAGDM algorithm is designed. Finally, an example of supplier selection for emergency medical supplies is provided to demonstrate the viability of the suggested approach. The influence of parameters on decision results and comparative analysis with the existing methods confirmed the reliability and accuracy of the suggested approach.
Green technologies are defined as the utilization of advanced scientific and technological methodologies to fabricate products that minimize environmental impact. The assessment of green technology alternatives necessitates a comprehensive analysis incorporating a multitude of criteria, many of which may be conflicting. Optimal selections must encompass technical performance, economic feasibility, environmental sustainability, and societal implications. Additionally, the data gaps and vague information typical when dealing with emerging technologies make traditional techniques unproductive. This work thus proposes a dynamic multi-criteria group decision making (MCGDM) model by integrating the Criteria Importance Through Intercriteria Correlation (CRITIC) method with the Evaluation based on Distance from Average Solution (EDAS) technique under the linguistic T-spherical fuzzy (LT-SF) environment. Initially, we define some Hamacher operations for LT-SF numbers (LT-SFNs) and then use them to develop some Hamacher aggregation operators (HAOs) synthesizing expert assessments. Meanwhile, some prominent features of these newly developed operators are also discussed. Next, we introduce a novel LT-SF-CRITIC-EDAS model, where LT-SF-CRITIC determines criteria weights, and LT-SF-EDAS evaluates the ranking of available alternatives. To illustrate the designed model’s applicability, we apply it to a real-world scenario of selecting the most appropriate green technology from available options. Finally, a sensitivity analysis and comparative evaluation against existing methods demonstrate our proposed approach’s superior feasibility and reliability. This research contributes to advancing decision making methodologies for assessing green technologies under complex and uncertain conditions.
