With the rapid development of the social economy, China is suffering from severe water scarcity due to improper management. Evaluation of water resource value is a crucial issue for innovative management in regional water resources. In this paper, in consideration of the complexity and uncertainty of water resources, 15 indicators were selected to establish the assessment system for its value in Wuhan City from the following three aspects, namely the environment, resources, and society. The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and Entropy Weight Method were combined to calculate the comprehensive weight. An improved set pair analysis (SPA) model was applied to evaluate water resource assets in the period of 2013–2017. For the sake of the dependability of these results, the James Pollution Loss model was utilized to compute loss of water resource value caused by the decline of water quality in the water pollution environment. The results show that the amount of water resource through physical quantitative accounting in Wuhan City fluctuates greatly. The initial change is relatively stable, then surges in 2015 and 2016, but slumps in 2017. The total water resource assets for Wuhan City from 2013 to 2017 are 14.221, 14.833, 28.375, 75.558, and 21.315 billion RMB, respectively. Therefore, water resource value accounting plays an indispensable role in the environmental protection and sustainable development of water, as well as provides a support for comprehensive calculation and management of various valuable natural resources.

Pair Analysis

In view of the uncertainty of evaluation indicators for water resources carrying capacity the theory of set pair analysis is adopted. The samples are preliminarily classified by calculating the connection degree between the samples and evaluation indicators. Then the samples are further ranked through the identity, difference and antagonism set pair analysis. The weights of evaluation factors in the model are obtained from the avail value of data reflecting the information entropy, by which the weight allocation is more reasonable. The application result of this model to an example is compared with those obtained from integrated evaluating methods and the attribute recognition method. It shows that the proposed method is practical and reasonable.

Sustainable Water Resources

Based on the studies on water resource system, we discuss the connotation of sustainable water resource system and explore the operating mechanisms of sustainable water resource system, including dynamic, resistance and coordination for three mechanisms, which control the evolution of sustainable water resource system. Then, after the establishment of the indicator system of sustainable water resource system evaluation, the regional sustainable water resource system evaluation model is set up by using set pair analysis theory. The evaluation results are obtained by calculating connection degree of each indicator. Finally, taking Shanghai as an example, it analyzes the water resource sustainability in Shanghai by using this model. The calculating results indicate that the situation of sustainable water resources system was better, which is in accordance with the actual situation in Shanghai.

Reform And Opening Up

Since the reform and opening up, with the rapid development of economy and society, China's water resources are facing severe challenges. However, there is no recognized best method for the evaluation of water resources carrying capacity. The evaluation process is either subjective and random. Either the researcher relies too much on the inherent information of the sample and ignores the subjective initiative. The results of both evaluations are not objective and fair. The entropy weight method is used to determine the weight of sample index, and the water resources carrying capacity is comprehensively evaluated through the coupling of the Philo model. Taking Hefei City as an example, the evaluation results are scientific, reasonable and authentic, which can provide reference for the comprehensive evaluation of water resources carrying capacity of related cities.

Water Resources Vulnerability

Climate change has tremendously changed the hydrological processes with global warming. There are many uncertainties in assessing water resources vulnerability. To assess the water resources vulnerability rationally under climate change, an improved set pair analysis model is established, in which set pair analysis theory is introduced and the weights are determined by the analytic hierarchy process method. The index systems and criteria of water resources vulnerability assessment in terms of water cycle, socio-economy, and ecological environment are established based on the analysis of sensibility and adaptability. Improved set pair analysis model is used to assess water resource vulnerability in Ningxia with twelve indexes under four kinds of future climate scenarios. Certain and uncertain information quantity of water resource vulnerability is calculated by connection numbers in the improved set pair analysis model. Results show that Ningxia is higher vulnerability under climate change scenarios. Improved set pair analysis model can fully take advantage of certain and uncertain knowledge, subjective and objective information compared with fuzzy assessment model and artificial neural network model. The improved set pair analysis is an extension to the vulnerability assessment model of water resources system.

Despite the rapid development of risk analysis in dam engineering, there is a relative absence of research on the environmental impact of dam break. As a systematic theory, set pair analysis has a good effect in dealing with uncertainties, although the result is relatively rough and easy to distort. A connection degree of five grades and a generalized set of potential are introduced to improve traditional set pair analysis. Combined with the index system, the evaluation model of the environmental impact of dam break is established, which is based on generalized set pair analysis. Taking Sheheji Reservoir dam as an example, a comparison of evaluation results of fuzzy mathematics theory and generalized set pair analysis is made, which verifies the scientificity and practicability of the method proposed in this paper. The results show that the evaluation grade of the environmental impact of dam break at Sheheji Reservoir is serious, and appropriate management measures should be taken to reduce the risk.

In recent years, urbanization has developed rapidly, and urban road play a vital role as the premise. Due to the good effectiveness of asphalt pavement, which is more popular in urban road, and road maintenance demands are also increasing. In order to make the maintenance work appropriate, accurate pavement performance evaluation is the premise. This paper collects the data of a road pavement condition in Shanghai and calculates the sub-indexes of each section. We use the entropy weight method to obtain the influence degree of each sub-index. Then we use the revised set pair analysis to construct the comprehensive performance evaluation model of urban road pavement. The analysis shows that compared with the standard method and the set pair analysis, the revised model is more objective, in line with the actual use of the road.
