Risk assessment of hydropower stations through an integrated fuzzy entropy-weight multiple criteria decision making method: A case study of the Xiangxi River

An integrated fuzzy entropy-weight multiple criteria decision making (IFEMCDM) method was proposed and applied to risk assessment of hydropower stations in the Xiangxi River. The IFEMCDM integrates the fuzzy set theory, the entropy weight method and the multiple criteria decision making method within a risk assessment framework. It can quantify uncertainties presented in fuzzy sets and assess multi-criteria decision problems in a more objective …
