Hierarchy Process

Being able to evaluate risks is an important task in many areas of human activity: economics, ecology, etc. Usually, environmental risk assessment is carried out on the basis of multiple and sometimes conflicting factors. Using multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) methodology is one of the possible ways to solve the problem. Methodologies of analytic hierarchy process (AHP) are the most commonly used MCDM methods, which combine subjective and personal preferences in risk assessment process. However, AHP involves human subjectivity, which introduces vagueness type of uncertainty and requires the usage of decision making under those uncertainties. In this paper it was considered to deal with uncertainty by using the fuzzy-based techniques. However, nowadays there exist multiple Fuzzy AHP methodologies developed by different authors. In this paper, these Fuzzy AHP methodologies will be compared, and the most appropriate Fuzzy AHP methodology for the application in case of environmental risks assessment will be offered on the basis of this comparison.

Driving Risk

Planning and decision making amidst programmatic and technological risks represent significant challenges for projects. This presentation addresses the four-step risk assessment process needed to determine a clear path forward to mature needed technology and design, license, and construct advanced first-of-a-kind nuclear power plants, including Small Modular Reactors. This four-step process has been carefully applied to the Next Generation Nuclear Plant.
