Vegetation Slope Protection Engineering was affected by several factors, and has become the focus of the geotechnical engineering. The stability of the vegetation slope must be controlled rigorous according to the surrounding environment condition and safety level of the slope in highway. According to the Grey Incidence Analysis (GIA) method of grey system theory, a new grey theory model is applied in analyzing of the characteristics of Eco-engineering protected by roots of vegetation, to attain the correlation coefficient affected by extent of the factors. After analysis of several practical Bio-engineering examples, to attain the most influencing factors of the stability of vegetation slope are the density of roots (ρ), the length of roots (L), the diameter of roots (D), the weight of soil (γ), the anti-pulling force of roots (P), internal friction angle (φ), cohesive strength(c) and the shear strength of the soil (τ). The role of factors is classified in order to define the extent of the impact and provide guidance for construction and design of Eco-engineering. After analyzing the data collected from the field and several classicistic documents, utilized Grey Incidence Analysis method to make prediction in order to guarantee the slope safety. It shows that the grey system theory can be effectively and practically adopted in the slope stability analysis of vegetation slope in expressway and that has a good prospect.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to identify most favorable (or quasi-preferred) industry characteristics of remanufacturing industry and most favorable (or quasi-preferred) industry factors which have an effect on these characteristics so as to improve these factors. Design/methodology/approach Grey system theory has prominent advantage of using few data and uncertainty information to analyze many factors. Therefore, it is more suited for system analysis than traditional statistical analysis methods like regression analysis, variance analysis and principal component analysis, which require massive data, certain probability distribution in the data and few variant factors. So in this paper, grey incidence analysis method, which is an important part of grey system theory, is used to identify industry characteristics and key industry factor of remanufacturing industry in China and then put forward appropriate industrial policies and countermeasures to improve these industry factors. Findings According to the results of this study, it reveals that there are no most favorable industry characteristics and no most favorable industry factors in remanufacturing industry of China. “Annual sale of remanufacturing industry” is identified as quasi-preferred industry characteristic, and “total number of employees with master degree or above in remanufacturing enterprise” is identified as the quasi-preferred industry factor. “Total building area of remanufacturing enterprise” is referred as the most unfavorable industry factors. Practical implications Judging from the findings of this study, four practical implications are summarized as follows: “annual sale of remanufacturing industry” should be given great importance because it is a quasi-preferred industry characteristic. “Total number of employees with master degree or above in remanufacturing enterprise” and “total number of research institution and university participated in remanufacturing” should be further strengthened by establishing an industry-university-research institute collaboration network, due to the fact that they are the top two quasi-preferred industry factors. “Total investment of remanufacturing industry” and “total annual R&D expenditures” have not played their due role in improving remanufacturing industry, so they should be moderately controlled so as to reduce waste of investment. “Total building area of remanufacturing enterprise” must be strictly controlled because of its little impact on remanufacturing industry. Originality/value In this research, grey incidence analysis is applied to identify key industry factors of remanufacturing industry for the first time. It helps in finding industry factors which are in urgent need of improvement and assists in making appropriate industrial policies and countermeasures to improve them by studying relationships between industry characteristic and industry factors.

Grey system theory has been widely used to forecast the economic data that are often highly nonlinear, irregular and non-stationary. Many models based on grey system theory could adapt to various economic time series data. However, some of these models didnt consider the impact of the model parameters, or only considered a simple change of the model parameters for the prediction. In this paper, we proposed the PSO based GM (1, 1) model using the optimized parameters in order to improve the forecasting accuracy. The experiment shows that PSO based GM (1, 1) gets much better forecasting accuracy compared with other widely used grey models on the actual chaotic economic data.

Purpose Performance evaluation of airports or any other organisation is paramount for improving performance. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate and compare the performance of the three international airports in Libya (MJI, MRA, and LAQ airports) by considering five aspects of performance. Design/methodology/approach The considered aspects are airport service quality, airport operations, airport economy, safety and security, and environmental. The paper uses the grey system theory to assess these airports by summarizing the opinions of experts. Findings The finding of this study provides directions of the evaluated airports to take the correct actions to improve overall performance. Originality/value No literature has been found till date is to evaluate and compare the performance of the international airports in Libya.

According to the grey system theory and markov principle, the fitting accuracy index is stochastic and fluctuant when time series datadevelopment trend is fitted through the grey theory; but the markov principle is suitable for processing the system with great stochastic fluctuation; therefore, a forecast model is put forward which is in accordance with the characteristics of construction accidents’ statistical data and is based on the grey system theory and markov principle. The model is suitable for the dynamic forecasting process featured by short forecasting time, small data quality and great stochastic fluctuation. The conclusion about the development trend of construction accidents with the model based on the grey-markov theory is more ideal compared with the grey model. The application example shows that the forecasting conclusion based on grey-markov theory is more accurate and more reliable. So the model is available enough to forecast the construction accidents.

Grey system theory has been widely used to forecast the economic data that are often highly nonlinear, irregular, and nonstationary. The size of these economic datasets is often very small. Many models based on grey system theory could be adapted to various economic time series data. However, some of these models did not consider the impact of recent data or the effective model parameters that can improve forecast accuracy. In this paper, we proposed the PRGM(1,1) model, a rolling mechanism based grey model optimized by the particle swarm optimization, in order to improve the forecast accuracy. The experiment shows that PRGM(1,1) gets much better forecast accuracy among other widely used grey models on three actual economic datasets.

The international oil price has fluctuated in a relatively large amplitude fluctuation in recent years, so the accurately prediction of the crude oil price is very important for a country and a company. There are a lot of means to forecast the trend of things, but if the problem is uncertain and the information is lacking, grey system theory (GST) is an efficient method. In this work we forecast the international crude oil price by using the grey system theory and creating a MATLBA program to achieve it. In order to improve the prediction accuracy, we modified the prediction results.
