“…Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) substantially evolved during the past decades and became one of the most important areas in Operational Research/Management Science (Kaplinski et al 2014;Zavadskas et al 2015aZavadskas et al , 2015b. Weight assessment is an important issue in many Multi Attribute Decision Making (MADM) problems (Kaplinski, Tamošaitienė 2015).…”

Accidental and intentional explosions are incidents often destroying buildings and leaving casualties. As a result of these blasts all over the world, demand of safe constructions with less vulnerability to explosions is rising. A large number of office buildings are built each year in many countries, housing large numbers of staff and clients, and due to specific nature and function, activities and services, these buildings are usually centrally located. Their architectural form being vital, therefore the article attempts, firstly, to present indices depicting the building form from the viewpoint of vulnerability to explosion. Secondly, the article presents such indexes as: capability to reduce blast effects, economic factors, simplicity of implementation, relationship among spaces in the crisis condition, and creating the least unusable space. The model of rapid assessment of vulnerability of office buildings forms to blast, SMART (simple multi attribute ranking technique) procedure is used and, applying the SWARA method, the weight of each major index and sub-index is arrived at. The model presented in the paper shows the assessment systems using figures between zero and a hundred, and four levels of vulnerability: weak, medium, good and excellent. The closer the figure to a hundred, the lower the vulnerability of the office building forms to blast. Swiss Re Tower case study was presented in the article rating of vulnerability of this building against explosion. It was found to be equal to 62.11%, and its standing was at medium level.

“…The next chapter is dedicated to two of the most outstanding traits of this prominent scientist, namely, creativity and the ability to accept and discuss new ideas. The earlier works by Prof. Zavadskas have been widely described in various papers (Kaplinski et al, 2014a;Kaplinski et al, 2014b;Kaplinski, 2009). This work presents a detailed description of scientific achievements by Professor and academician Zavadskas over the period of the last five years, when he focused on the investigation and solution of various sustainability problems (Fig.…”

A B S T R A C TThe article presents a description of scientific achievements concerning Multiple-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) methods attained as part of the cooperation between scientific centres of Lithuania, Germany and Poland with a special emphasis on the input by Professor Edmundas K. Zavadskas and his scientific school. The cooperation, which commenced in 1986, focused on "Colloquia" -the systematic, international scientific seminars. The article aimed to summarise and popularise the achievement of these "Colloquia" in the area of MCDM as well as spotlight the outstanding theoretical and application significance of accomplishments by Prof. Zavadskas. Also, the work presents the most recent MCDM methods developed by Prof. Zavadskas that improve the accuracy of calculations and extend the area of their application.
