With the development of urbanization in developing countries, some large cities have experienced rapid population growth and industrial expansion in a short period of time. In order to reasonably expand the scale of the city and guide the orderly outward movement of population and industries, it is urgent to improve the human settlement environment (THSE) in the surrounding areas of large cities. In the case of limited financial funds, different areas around the city need to be improved one by one according to the order of improvement grades. Since THSE is a comprehensive system involving multiple levels and indexes, it is difficult to assess it in a simple way. The previous assessment of THSE mainly focused on qualitative and semi-quantitative aspects, with poor accuracy. In this paper, the author takes JianYang County under the jurisdiction of Chengdu City in Southwest China as an example and uses the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) to quantitatively calculate the improvement grade of THSE in 55 townships of JianYang County. The author carried out an investigation for more than one year. According to the actual situation of JianYang County, five primary indexes and 22 secondary indexes were selected to establish a comprehensive evaluation index system. This index system contains 1210 statistical data points, and more than 30,000 data points were calculated and derived in this article. Finally, the author calculated the improvement grade of 55 townships by FAHP quantitatively and carried out a horizontal comparison of townships within the same grade to further determine the order of improvement of THSE.

For the selection of the suitable place for the construction of sanitary landfill and biogas plant in the city of Najaf Abad, this study used fuzzy analytic hierarchy process, fuzzy analytic network process, and geographic information system. In this research, factors such as slope, aspect, geology, land use, biomass, and distance from groundwater, electricity network, protected areas, and roads were used as the most important criteria for site selection of biogas plant. The results of weighting and overlaying the maps of different criteria showed that based on the analytic network process, the best place selected for the establishment of biogas reactor was located in the southwest and based on analytic hierarchy process, the best places are located in the south and southwest of the study area. Suggested places, which are the best for the establishment of biogas plant, are located in barren lands of Najaf Abad. Moreover, according to the result, it is found that 10% and 11% of the study area are highly suitable based on fuzzy analytic hierarchy process and analytic network process methods, respectively. The results showed that the usage of fuzzy analytic hierarchy process, fuzzy analytic network process as multi-criteria decision-making methods in combination with geographic information system are suitable for selecting the best place for landfill and biogas plant.

The city integrated emergency response system achieved consolidated receive alarm and command which cross-regional, inter-departmental and cross-force, it can conduct emergency rescue or relief disaster timely, orderly and efficiently. This paper mainly used the method of analytic hierarchy process (AHP), analysis the city integrated emergency response system through the establishment of evaluation index system, get the calculation formula of its comprehensive score, and take Nanning city integrated emergency response system for example, apply and prove the index system and calculation formula.

Decisions usually involve the getting the best solution, selecting the suitable experiments, most appropriate judgments, taking the quality results etc., using some techniques.  Every decision making can be considered as the choice from the set of alternatives based on a set of criteria.  The fuzzy analytic hierarchy process is a multi-criteria decision making and is dealing with decision making problems through pairwise comparisons mode [10].  The weight vectors from this comparison model are obtained by using extent analysis method.  This paper concern with an alternate method of finding the weight vectors from the original fuzzy AHP decision model (moderate fuzzy AHP model), that has the same rank as obtained in original fuzzy AHP and ideal fuzzy AHP decision models.

Grassland resources are an important part of land resources. Moreover, it has the functions of regulating the climate, windproof and sand fixation, conserving water sources, maintaining water and soil, raising livestock, providing food, purifying the air, and beautifying the environment in terrestrial ecosystems. Grassland resource evaluation is of great significance to the sustainable development of grassland resources. Therefore, this paper improves the BP neural network, uses the comprehensive index method to calculate the weights in the analytic hierarchy process, and constructs a water resources carrying capacity research and analysis system based on the entropy weight extension decision theory. Meanwhile, this paper analyzes different levels of resource and environmental carrying capacity to achieve the purpose of comprehensive evaluation of resource and environmental carrying capacity. In addition, based on the theory of sustainable development, under the guidance of the principle of index system construction, this paper studies the actual situation of grassland resources and the availability and operability of data, and combines with the opinions given by experts to form an evaluation index system of grassland resources and environmental carrying capacity. Finally, through the actual case study analysis, it is concluded that the model constructed in this paper has a certain effect.
