Sustainable Green Development and Manufacturing Performance through Modern Production Techniques

<p>Various Multiple Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) techniques in one book: 13 MCDM techniques have been applied namely WSM WPM WASPAS GRA SMART CRITIC ENTROPY EDAS MOORA AHP TOPSIS VIKOR and new tools: MDEMATEL Fuzzy MDEMATEL Modified Fuzzy TOPSIS and Modified Fuzzy VIKOR. To date no other book possesses this many tools.</p><p>Various quantitative techniques: Different quantitative techniques have been applied namely Cronbach alpha Chi-square and ANOVA (for demographic analysis) Percent Point Score and Central Tendency (response analysis) Factor Analysis Correlation and Regression. To date no other book possesses this many tools.</p><p>Interpretive Structural Modelling: ISM has been applied for verifying MCDM results through MICMAC analysis and ISM model thus paving the way for model through SEM. Structural Equation Modelling: SEM using AMOS in PASW has been applied for model development.</p><p>New MCDM techniques developed: In the process during qualitative analysis new tools have been developed and their results have been compared with other existing MCDM tools and the results are encouraging. The new techniques are MDEMATEL Fuzzy MDEMATEL Modified Fuzzy TOPSIS and Modified Fuzzy VIKOR.</p><p>Qualitative Model Developed: As the title says <em>Sustainable Green Development and Manufacturing Performance through Modern Production Techniques</em>. It is a need-of-the-hour topic as industries must maintain their performance (sustainable development) and while sustaining they have to keep in mind green issues (that is environment-related issues especially during the COVID-19 pandemic) and adopt advanced manufacturing and maintenance techniques. A model for this has been developed which will be helpful to both academicians and industrialists.</p><p>Real-time Case Studies: Case studies in two industries of differing origins different manufacturing sectors different products and comparing their units in the country of their origin and India.</p><p>Dr. Chandan Deep Singh is an assistant professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering Punjabi University Patiala Punjab (India).
