Safety evaluation method of tailings dam based on uncertain linguistic information
In order to accurately evaluate the safety level of a tailings dam,the parameters and indexes related to the safety of a tailings dam are classified to establish an index system based on correlation analysis.A method of safety evaluation of a tailings dam is developed based on interval two-tuple linguistic information aggregated with IT-WAA and IT-CWAA operators in this study.The result shows that the evaluation method can effectively avoid the distortion of language assessment and is more relevant to the reality.The study result has a useful reference value and is of significance to the safety evaluation and management of tailings dams.
ABSTRACTThis article describes the process of modifying an assessment tool in order to make it culturally appropriate for South Asian Tamil refugees and asylum seekers. This was envisioned as an important step in giving practitioners who work with Tamils a useful tool and advancing the knowledge base on cultural competence to make it more inclusive of instrument development. This article provides a detailed description of how the instrument was developed, thus addressing a significant deficiency in the literature.
