A novel approach for failure mode and effects analysis using combination weighting and fuzzy VIKOR method

- A novel FMEA approach is proposed using combination weighting and fuzzy VIKOR.
- Combination of fuzzy AHP and entropy method is applied for risk factor weighting.
- Fuzzy VIKOR method is used to determine the risk priorities of failure modes.
- An empirical example is offered to illustrate the effectiveness of the new method.
