The ranking grade of rock engineering stability is generally determined by the maximum
membership degree principle, and the value of membership degree is an exact numerical value.
However, the membership degree of uncertainty with randomness and fuzziness has not been
considered. The membership degree with uncertainty can describe the uncertainty effects
of the evaluating factors on rock engineering stability and fully shows the degrees of one evaluating
factor belonging to the ranking grades. In this study, a quantitative index representing the membership
degree with uncertainty is proposed and obtained based on the membership degree of the cloud model.
The membership degree of the cloud model is obtained based on normal cloud theory, the system
and the ranking grade of evaluation factors and analytical hierarchy process (AHP) based on scale
of the cloud model. An evaluation method for the membership degree of cloud model is conducted and
applied in a rock slope project. The feasible and practical evaluation results is verified by comparing
with that of AHP method, the extension theory and the numerical simulation. This proposed method can
serve as a decision tool for stability evaluation in other similar projects.
