Abstract :

Manufacturing environment advancement has become extensively precise in measurement of performance using multi criteria decision making method. Material selection for the specific applications with specific properties from a large number of alternatives is a difficult task. In this paper, a new simple, rational and systematic decision making method named MERDE is proposed. The flexibility for it application is demonstrated using ten material selection problems. The mathematical procedure of MERDE method is based on arithmetic mean and consisting of a new way of normalization of the data set to make them dimensionless.
