Water Absorption Process Parametric Selection For Natural Composites Using The PROMETHEE Method And Analytical Hierarchy Process For Objective Weights For Ship’s Hull Application

Victor Chidiebere Maduekwe, Sunday Ayoola Oke

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to establish the importance of parameters in a water absorption process for natural particulate composite for ship’s hull applications. To attain useful and reliable outcomes, the subjective evaluation of the assessor and weights of inputs are combined in a PROMETHEE and analytical hierarchy process (AHP) approach. The PROMETHEE serves the goal of ranking while the AHP is deployed to establish the objective weighing. It was found that time is the heading parameter for the natural particulate thermoset composite solutions, compared with thickness and length. By integrating PROMETHEE and AHP, it was proved that this approach offers a higher level of confidence to composite developers than initiative practices that currently dominate choices of parameters. It is particularly useful for natural particulate water absorption parametric selection since it is an innovative and scientific choice approach involving multicriteria analysis.
