Abstract:The demands for alternative energy resources have been increasing exponentially in the 21st century due to continuous industrial development, depletion of fossil fuels and emerging environmental consciousness. Renewable energy sources, including wind energy, hydropower energy, geothermal energy, solar energy, biomass energy and ocean power, have received increasing attention as alternative means of meeting global energy demands. After Japan's Fukushima nuclear plant disaster in March 2011, more and more countries are having doubt about the safety of nuclear plants. As a result, safe and renewable energy sources are attracting even more attention these days. Wind energy production, with its relatively safer and positive environmental characteristics, has evolved in the past few decades from a marginal activity into a multi-billion dollar industry. In this research, a comprehensive evaluation model is constructed to select a suitable location for developing a wind farm. The model incorporates interpretive structural modeling (ISM), benefits, opportunities, costs and risks (BOCR) and fuzzy analytic network process (FANP). Experts in the field are invited to contribute their expertise in evaluating the importance of the factors and various aspects of the wind farm evaluation OPEN ACCESSEnergies 2011, 4 2003 problem, and the most suitable wind farm can finally be generated from the model. A case study is carried out in Taiwan in evaluating the expected performance of several potential wind farms, and a recommendation is provided for selecting the most appropriate wind farm for construction.

“…The system of higher education is not devoid of this concept." 9 Baldwin another educational advocate, refers to meeting the challenges in our current STEM classrooms and considers possible innovative solutions to such demands: "Today many of the efforts to strengthen undergraduate education in Science, Technology Engineering, and Math (STEM) fields continue to rely on individual faculty and small faculty groups who are committed to the cause of improving science or technology education in their department or institution." 2 Baldwin and Upadhyay provide an apt lens for this focus on raising educational quality and inspiration to seek out ways to accomplish this .…”

is a member of Northeastern University's Gateway Team, a select group of full-time faculty devoted to the First-year Engineering Program at Northeastern University (NU). While she concentrates on first-year engineering courses and instructs across all engineering disciplines, Dr. Jaeger also teaches specialty courses in the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering at NU in Digital Simulation, Facilities Planning, and Human-Machine Systems. Corey Balint, Northeastern UniversityCorey Balint is a junior Industrial Engineering major at Northeastern University who volunteered to assist with this research project after experiencing it first hand. He has been active in FIRST Robotics since his freshman year of high school as both a student and mentor. He also has served on the Executive Board of the Institute of Industrial Engineers since 2007, as well as serving as a peer mentor for the College of Engineering.
