A decision-making strategy to combat CO$ _2 $ emissions using sine trigonometric aggregation operators with cubic bipolar fuzzy input

Abstract

<abstract><p>A cubic bipolar fuzzy set (CBFS) is by far the most efficient model for handling bipolar fuzziness because it carries both single-valued (SV) and interval-valued (Ⅳ) bipolar fuzzy numbers at the same time. The sine trigonometric function possesses two consequential qualities, namely, periodicity and symmetry, both of which are helpful tools for matching decision makers' conjectures. This article aims to integrate the sine function and cubic bipolar fuzzy data. As a result, sine trigonometric operational laws (STOLs) for cubic bipolar fuzzy numbers (CBFNs) are defined in this article. Premised on these laws, a substantial range of aggregation operators (AOs) are introduced. Certain features of these operators, including monotonicity, idempotency, and boundedness, are explored as well. Using the proffered AOs, a novel multi-criteria group decision-making (MCGDM) strategy is developed. An extensive case study of carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology has been provided to show the viability of the suggested method. A numerical example is provided to manifest the feasibility of the developed approach. Finally, a comparison study is executed to discuss the efficacy of the novel MCGDM framework.</p></abstract>
