Social stability risk assessment of NIMBY major projects by OWA, matter-element, and cloud model
Li Ma, Xuhui Cong · Journal of Intelligent & Fuzzy Systems · 2019
To solve the problem of Social Stability Risk (SSR) assessment for Not In My Back Yard (NIMBY) major projects, first, we established an SSR assessment index system in terms of legality, rationality, feasibility, and controllability. Then, we used the cloud model to determine the value of SSR assess ment indicator and the Ordered Weighted Averaging (OWA) operator to weight SSR indicators. Finally, the SSR levels of NIMBY major projects were measured by the matter-element model. The case study shows that the SSR indicator system and assessment model developed in this work can assess the SSR of NIMBY major projects and provide a reference for the investment decisions of government departments.
