Dielectric surfaces exposed to partial discharges (PD) undergo aging, which is reflected by changes in the discharge pulse form. An approach is described in which fuzzy logic and neural networks are used in conjunction with the wavelet transform to identify the parameters in the PD pulse form for the purpose of classifying the aging phenomena due to partial discharge degradation.

Complete pre-orders can be characterized in terms of the transitivity of the corresponding strict preference and indifference relations. In this paper, we investigate this characterization in a fuzzy setting. We consider two types of completeness (weak completeness and strong completeness) and decompose a fuzzy pre-order by means of an indifference generator, in particular a Frank t-norm. In th...

We define fuzzy constraint networks and prove a theorem about their relationship to fuzzy logic. Then we introduce Khayyam, a fuzzy constraint-based programming language in which any sentence in the first-order fuzzy predicate calculus is a well-formed constraint statement. Finally, using Khayyam to address an equipment selection application, we illustrate the expressive power of fuzzy constrai...

Fuzzy relational databases have been introduced to deal with uncertain or incomplete information demonstrating the efficiency of processing fuzzy queries. For these reasons, many organizations aim to integrate flexible querying to handle imprecise data or to use fuzzy data mining tools, minimizing the transformation costs. The best solution is to offer a smooth migration towards this technology...

In this paper a new method for solving fuzzy differential equation with fractional order is considered. The fuzzy solution is construct by power series in the Caputo derivatives sense. To illustrate the reliability of method some examples are provided. In this paper a new method for solving fuzzy differential equation with fractional order is considered. The fuzzy solution is construct by power...

This paper is on the solutions of fuzzy initial value problems for fourth-order fuzzy differential equations with positive and negative fuzzy coefficients by fuzzy Laplace transform. Examples are solved. Conclusions are given.

This paper aims at being a systematic investigation of different completeness properties of first-order predicate logics with truth-constants based on a large class of left-continuous t-norms (mainly continuous and weak nilpotent minimum t-norms). We consider standard semantics over the real unit interval but also we explore alternative semantics based on the rational unit interval and on finit...

in this paper the solution of a second order linear dierential equations with intu-itionistic fuzzy boundary value is described. it is discussed for two dierent cases: coecientis positive crisp number and coecient is negative crisp number. here fuzzy numbers aretaken as generalized trapezoidal intutionistic fuzzy numbers (gtrifns). further a numericalexample is illustrated.

We present a fuzzy (or quantitative) version of the van Benthem theorem, which characterizes propositional modal logic as the bisimulation-invariant fragment of first-order logic. Specifically, we consider a first-order fuzzy predicate logic alongwith its modal fragment, and show that the fuzzy first-order formulas that are non-expansive w.r.t. the natural notion of bisimulation distance are ex...

In economic order quantity models without backordering, both the stock cost of each unit quantity and the order cost of each cycle are characterized as independent fuzzy variables rather than fuzzy numbers as in previous studies. Based on an expected value criterion or a credibility criterion, a fuzzy expected value model and a fuzzy dependent chance programming (DCP) model are constructed. The...
