This work presents a fuzzy TOPSIS model under group decisions for solving the facility location selection problem, where the ratings of various alternative locations under different subjective attributes and the importance weights of all attributes are assessed in linguistic values represented by fuzzy numbers. The objective attributes are transformed into dimensionless indices to ensure compatibility with the linguistic ratings of the subjective attributes. Furthermore, the membership function of the aggregation of the ratings and weights for each alternative location versus each attribute can be developed by interval arithmetic and alpha-cuts of fuzzy numbers. The ranking method of the mean of the integral values is applied to help derive the ideal and negative-ideal fuzzy solutions to complete the proposed fuzzy TOPSIS model. Finally, a numerical example demonstrates the computational process of the proposed model.
