Abstract

In this study, Flood Control Projects in the Karun River were evaluated using Bifuzzy and fuzzy multi-criteria group decision making model. For this purpose, four main criteria of economic, environmental, social and technical and fifteen subcriteria were used. Then, optimistic and pessimistic scores were used to rank the projects according to different subcriteria. The results showed that the economic criteria with fuzzy weight of (0. 202, 0. 310, 0. 452) had the most impact on the evaluation process, and the technical, environmental and social criteria were ranked next. The results also showed that the overall ranking of Flood Control Projects based on Bifuzzy and fuzzy method is different. So that the ranking based on Bifuzzy method as follows: Detention dam, diversion channel, dredging, dike, beach construction, and groyne. But based on the fuzzy method, diversion channel and detention dam have first and second priorities, respectively. So, based on the results of both methods, it is suggested that Khuzestan Water and Power Authority, as the proctor of Karun River, put the construction of detention dam and diversion channel in higher priority than other Flood Control Projects and provide the funding needed to carry out these projects.
