The book introduces readers to some of the latest advances in and approaches to decision-making methods based on thermodynamic characters and hesitant fuzzy linguistic preference relations. By investigating the decision-making methods with thermodynamic parameters based on different information representatives, the book offers readers a novel perspective for solving problems under uncertainty. By exploring the consistency and consensus of hesitant fuzzy linguistic preference relations, the book gives readers efficient ways for preference analysis under uncertainty, chiefly intended for researchers and practitioners working in operations research, multi-attribute decision making, preference analysis, etc. The book can also be used as supplementary material for postgraduate and senior-year undergraduate students of the relevant professional institutions.

Gives a thorough and systematic introduction to recent research results Presents recent research on Decision-Making Analyses With Thermodynamic Parameters and Hesitant Fuzzy Linguistic Preference Relations Can be used as a reference for researchers and practitioners working in fuzzy mathematics, operations research, information science, management science, engineering, etc
