Background and aims: One of the most common accidents that annoy many people in the world every year is road traffic accidents. Today, the largest share of accidents related to traffic accidents. Iran is one of the countries with the highest incidence and mortality due to road accidents and traffic. Survey of these events can identify the main factors, prioritization and preventive programs for them. Methods: In this research, the multi-criteria decision-making method based on FUZZY TOPSIS has been used to selection the main risk factors. Five criteria specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and timeable are used for prioritizing of traffic police risk factors. Results: In this research, fuzzy multi-criteria decision-making method has been used to selection the most important risk factors. Five criteria include: specific, measureable, Attainable, Realistic, and time frame were used for ranking risk factors in traffic police. According to the results, the humanchr('39')s behavior was identified as the most appropriate factors for road safety (coefficients = 0.204684). Safety equipment and vehiclechr('39')s usage were ranked in grade 3 and 4. Other indicators of risk in order of importance and influence were at lower levels. Conclusion: Identify and Priority of traffic risk factors would help to managers and policy makers for managing the factors affecting accidents. Humanchr('39')s behavior and humanchr('39')s decision were identified as main role in road accident control.

Selecting cost-effective and efficient air filtration technologies that ensure sustainable development is a challenge to national, regional and local policy makers. Various factors such as efficiency, maintainability, and design of the developed devices can affect the selection of optimized technologies. The present study aimed to select optimal technologies for air filtration devices in petrochemical industries through a multi-criteria decision-making (MADM) method based on a fuzzy model of Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS). Five criteria (filtration efficiency, cost, maintainability, designability, and size) were used to rank air pollution control technologies designed to eliminate particulate matter (PM), volatile organic compounds ( VOCs), and ammonia (NH 3 ). According to the results, the research criteria had different weights for different air pollutants. High-efficiency particulate air (HEPA + pre collector) filters, plasma chemistry, and chemical absorption were identified as the most appropriate filtration methods for PM, VOCs, and NH 3 , respectively (coefficients = 0.923, 0.9586, and 0.867, respectively).
