Multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods are crucial for addressing complex real-world problems with multiple conflicting criteria. One of the most common MCDM methods is the Weighted Aggregated Sum Product Assessment (WASPAS) method, which combines the weighted sum (WSM) and weighted...

This paper introduces the Quickest Evacuation Location problem (QELP), a novel optimisation problem aimed at supporting humanitarian operations by combining the quickest flow problem and the discrete facility location problem. Its scope falls into the field of evacuation planning and design,...

There is increasing attention on developing efficient processes including circular economy principles, and obtaining fuels from wastewater treatment feedstocks is among the most promising. As a wastewater treatment byproduct, sewage sludge is a source of lipids that can be converted to biodiesel...

Forest roads can potentially cause environmental impacts, especially related to water dynamics and sediment production. To identify critical areas for forest road allocation, we considered landscape criteria such as slope, erodibility (K), distance to accumulated water flow, and aspect. The...
