Abstract

In this study, we proposed a Fuzzy multi-criteria decision-making hybrid approach (FMCDM) which integrates the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) and the Fuzzy Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (FTOPSIS) to evaluate the severity of the damage of Typhoon in various provinces in China. In order to match the AHP method in the 1–9 criteria, the statistics data of typhoon disaster losses in 2008 is normalized by fuzzy number and then processed by the proposed hybrid method of AHP and TOPSIS. The experiment results show that the proposed method is effective and can provide a comprehensive assessment to the damage level of Typhoon.
