SELECTION OF MATERIAL FOR BEARING USING MADM APPROACH

Abstract

In Industries, there are several reasons of failure of bearing and this rate of failure of bearing can be avoided by
proper selection of bearing materials. Numerous authors have presented different ranking methods to rank alternatives,
during the last two decades. A novel multiple attribute decision making (MADM) method for material selection for a
considered design problem was purposed. In this paper analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method, Simple Additive Weighting
(SAW) and Weighted Product Method (WPM) have been applied to rank out the material of bearing among of five materials.
