Potential detection of water resources in karst formations using APLIS model and modification with AHP and TOPSIS

Abstract: Population growth and water shortage in Iran have highlighted the importance of studies on karst. However, in developing countries such as Iran, studies on the karst region including the construction of piezometric wells, exploratory boreholes, qualitative sampling and tracing tests are performed infrequently due to the huge costs. Hence, it is necessary to conduct karst studies in regions with a high potential of recharge using the map of groundwater recharge potential. In addition, determining and estimating… Show more

“…e determined alternative scheme should be located at the shortest geometric distance from the optimal scheme and the longest geometric distance from the worst scheme [30]. As a multicriteria decision analysis method, TOPSIS has been successfully applied to industrial technology [31,32], computer science [33][34][35], medical problems [36], applied statistics [37][38][39][40], environmental protection [41,42], and other fields.…”

“…Internal Failure Costs: include defects identi ed in various stages before delivering the product or service to the customer by inspection or quality control units and action taken to eliminate it [36,37]. In the present study, internal failure costs include water collection and treatment costs, water loss costs, preventive maintenance, failure analysis, wastewater recycling costs [38], water distribution and maintenance of good quality, treated e uent, and the cost of grading the quality of drinking water [39].…”

“…As a technique first proposed by Thomas Saaty (1980), it is widely used in a variety of fields owing to the advantage of being able to calculate weights by objectively and consistently judging the value of alternatives through pairwise comparisons for each factor (Agarwal et al, 2016;Rahmati et al, 2014;Jenifer and Jha, 2017;Arulbalaji et al, 2019). In addition, the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) suggested by Hwang and Yoon (1981) is widely used in studies on the selection of optimal sites (Arabameri et al, 2019;Zaree et al, 2019). In brief, TOPSIS is a method for selecting the alternative that is closest to a positive ideal solution (PIS) and far from a negative ideal solution (NIS).…”
