Consensus Reaching Process for Traditional Group Decision Making in View of the Optimal Adjustment Mechanism.

Consensus reaching process (CRP) is a key topic in the area of group decision making (GDM). When the consensus level is not high enough, it becomes necessary to adjust the original opinions of decision makers (DMs). To offer the adjustment reference for DMs, we build the programming models to determine the minimum modification to be carried out from the individual and global perspectives.

Optimal Interaction Priority Calculation From Hesitant Fuzzy Preference Relations Based on the Monte Carlo Simulation Method for the Acceptable Consistency and Consensus.

To address the situation where the complete consistency is unnecessary, a stepwise optimization model-based method for testing the acceptably additive consistency (AAC) of hesitant fuzzy preference relations (HFPRs) is introduced. Then, an AAC concept for HFPRs is defined. Meanwhile, incomplete HFPRs (iHFPRs) are discussed and a series of optimization models to acquire complete HFPRs is constructed.

[Study on equilibrium adsorption of volatile chlorinated hydrocarbons on humid soils].

Adsorption is one of the principal mechanisms for soil contamination by volatile chlorinated hydrocarbons (VCHs). Dynamic adsorption experiments were carried out to study the equilibrium adsorption of four common VCHs pollutants onto eight typical soils in China. Results showed that dry soils had far greater adsorption capacity than humid soils.

[Study on equilibrium adsorption of volatile chlorinated hydrocarbons on dry soils].

Adsorption is one of the principal mechanisms of soil contamination by volatile chlorinated hydrocarbons (VCHs). Three typical paddy soils were collected from Yangtze Delta Region, onto which the equilibrium adsorption of six VCHs was studied under dry conditions using static equilibrium adsorption experiments. Results showed that the equilibrium adsorption isotherms of dry soils did not fit the Langmuir equation or BET equation, but could be well fitted the Dubinin-Astakhov equation (R2 > 0.
