Abstract

This work deals with the design of new shielding materials for the protection of electrical devices. Since there are many different requirements for modern materials, we have chosen a multi-objective approach to this problem. As material under consideration we chose conducting polymer composites due to their excellent electromagnetic properties in the microwave band and their high potential for the optimization process. In this paper, we start this process with the formulation of a novel model, deal further with the approximation of these solution sets, and finally consider the decision support related to this problem.
