Flight attendants working in airline companies are the airline personnel with whom the passengers are in contact from boarding the plane to the landing process. Therefore, it is important to choose a flight attendant for an airline company. The aim of this study is to determine the importance of the criteria that airline companies should take into consideration when recruiting cabin crew and to choose the most suitable one among cabin crew alternatives. Fuzzy SWARA was used to find the criterion weights, and the Fuzzy MARCOS method was used to rank the candidates. In the literature research, it has not been found a study that Fuzzy SWARA and Fuzzy MARCOS methods are used in evaluating the alternatives and the criteria that play a role in the selection of cabin crew and. In the analysis results, it was determined that the three most important evaluation criteria are "education and success status", "foreign language knowledge" and "physical characteristics", respectively. Candidate number 3 was also ranked first as the most suitable flight attendant. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The results of the long term wars depend upon the right usage of the country resources in addition to war strategies. If a country is not powerful economically, it cannot be expected to win a long term campaign. In this study, two different models for WWII Pacific Front ground and sea battles have been prepared with Stella 9.1.4 software in the framework of the system dynamics by understanding the effect of mass production. Then, the model has been run in according to the different scenarios for ground battles and the results have been analyzed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

There have been different machine types that the companies need for production activities. Purchasing decision of the most appropriate machine necessitates to evaluate many different criteria together. The methods that are used for decision by analyzing many criteria together are called multi criteria decision making methods. In some cases, the lower values of the evaluation criteria like time and cost are preferable. One of the multi criteria decision making methods that can be used for this condition is Copras. In this study, 38 different eccentric pres alternatives have been analysed according to tonnage height, table-ram distance, stroke adjustment, slide adjustment, motor power, unit stroke time evaluation criteria, and then the results have been compared.
