In this paper, we present a new method for fuzzy risk analysis based on ranking generalized fuzzy numbers with different heights and different spreads. First, we present a new method for ranking generalized fuzzy numbers. The proposed method considers the defuzzified values, the heights and the spreads for ranking generalized fuzzy numbers. Based on the proposed method for ranking generalized f...

Contract bridge occupies nowadays a position of great prestige being, together with chess, the only mind sports officially recognized by the International Olympic Committee. In the present paper an innovative method for assessing the total performance of bridge-players’ belonging to groups of special interest (e.g. different bridge clubs during a tournament, men and women, new and old players, ...

All the real systems exhibits non-linear nature, conventional controllers are not always able to provide good and accurate results. Fuzzy Logic Control is used to obtain better response. A model for simulation is designed and all the assumptions are made before the development of the model. An attempt has been made to analyze the efficiency of a fuzzy controller over a conventional PID controll...

The system dynamics technique has been demonstrated to be a proper method by which to model and simulate the development of spatial data infrastructures (SDI). An SDI is a collaborative effort to manage and share spatial data at different political and administrative levels. It is comprised of various dynamically interacting quantitative and qualitative (linguistic) variables. To incorporate li...

In this paper, we concentrate on linear programming problems in which both the right-hand side and the technological coefficients are fuzzy numbers.We consider here only the case of fuzzy numbers with linear membership function. The determination of a crisp maximizing decision [2] is used for a defuzzification of these problems. The crisp problems obtained after the defuzzification are non-line...

Although simple additive weighting method (SAW) is the most popular approach for classical multiple attribute decision making (MADM), it is not practical any more if information is fuzzy. The existing methods of Fuzzy Simple Additive Weighting method (FSAW) apply defuzzification which distorts fuzzy numbers. Furthermore, most of the methods usually require lengthy and laborious manipulations. I...
