Abstract

The technical feasibility analysis of an aircraft design scheme directly influences the design proposal, which determines whether scheme can satisfy the maximum design requirements or we can continue the detailed design. Conventional design evaluation of a new technical influence is insufficient, because the weight evaluation (analytic hierarchy process, AHP) is usually subjective. This paper proposes a new impact analysis method based on probability theory, and the comprehensive information including the data envelopment analysis (DEA) and the interval number AHP is referred to as a comprehensive empowerment of the appraisal criterion. According to the proposed method, the best selection method of an aircraft conceptual/preliminary scheme based on probability and integration judgment is established. Finally, some examples are presented to demonstrate the validity of the method.
