Resumen
To effectively enhance the adaptability of earthquake rescue robots in dynamic environments and complex tasks, there is an urgent need for an evaluation method that quantifies their performance and facilitates the selection of rescue robots with optimal overall capabilities. In this paper, twenty-two evaluation criteria are proposed based on a comprehensive review of existing evaluation criteria for rescue robots across various domains. The evaluation criteria are tested using the test modules developed by the National Earthquake Response support service, obtaining the corresponding values for each criterion. Then, the weights of the criterion layer and comprehensive evaluation index are determined based on the analytical hierarch process and trapezoidal fuzzy number complementary judgment matrix, and a new consistency test method is proposed. The qualitative evaluation and quantitative analysis are effectively combined to overcome the subjective influence of expert decision-making. Additionally, the performance of three earthquake search and rescue robots is comprehensively evaluated and ranked using the improved radar chart method as an empirical example. Finally, the robustness of the ranking results is examined using a weight sensitivity analysis. The results of the sensitivity analysis demonstrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method, thereby providing valuable insights for developing multi-objective optimization control strategies and structural designs for earthquake search and rescue robots.
