A Study on Fuzzy AHP Method in Green Modularity Design

Green Design and Manufacturing is a proactive approach to minimize wastes, protect the environment and conserve the resources during a product's design stage. In this paper, a theoretical scheme of multi-objective modularity analysis for discrete electromechanical product design is proposed. Product physical architecture is represented by a fuzzy graph, where fuzzy relationships contain environmental objectives and influence module formulation. Finally,the optimal product modules combining all objectives need to be searched by a clustering algorithm.
