Applying Fuzzy Logic and Analysis Hierarchy Process (AHP) in the Design of Residential Spaces; Case of Study: Arak City

Abstract

Today, quality is measured in the form of sustainable architecture in the areas of meeting the physical needs of users. If architectural paradigms that include people's emotions and psyche have been neglected then this issue causes spiritual and even cultural and social losses. As a result, the quality value of the building has decreased. With this perspective, the present plan is trying to achieve a design with a phenomenological approach that is evaluated from the point of view of the end users of the buildings, so that it is finally considered to be of high quality. The methodology of this research is quantitative, and the data collection tool is a questionnaire. The data analysis tool is the use of Riashi's equations through Expert Choice software. Also MATLAB software version 2018 is used for fuzzy logic. After collecting the fuzzy weight differences of each building concerning each criterion, it still cannot be used as a ranking. Finally, after the analyses done by the researchers in this research through research tools, the proposed designs for the design of buildings that will be built in Arak City according to the indicators and evaluations of this research have been displayed.
