the bi-objective warehouse problem in a crisp environment is often not eective in dealing with the imprecision or vagueness in the values of the problem parameters. to deal with such situations, several researchers have proposed that the parameters be represented as fuzzy numbers. we describe a new algorithm for fuzzy bi-objective warehouse problem using a ranking function followed by an applic...

fuzzy linear programming problem occur in many elds such as mathematical modeling, control theory and management sciences, etc. in this paper we focus on a kind of linear programming with fuzzy numbers and variables namely fully fuzzy linear programming (fflp) problem, in which the constraints are in inequality forms. then a new method is proposed to ne the fuzzy solution for solving (fflp). ...

in the literature hardly any attention is paid to solving a fuzzy fixed charge transportation problem. in this paper, we consider the fully fixed-charge transportation problem and try to find both the lower and upper bounds on the fuzzy optimal value of such a problem in which all of the parameters are triangular fuzzy numbers. to illustrate the proposed method, a numerical example is ‎presented.‎

Ranking of fuzzy numbers play an important role in decision making, optimization and forecasting etc. Fuzzy numbers must be ranked before an action is taken by a decision maker. In this paper, with the help of several counter examples, it is proved that ranking method proposed by Chen and Chen (Expert Systems with Applications 36 (3): 6833) is incorrect. The main aim of this paper is to propose...

the intuitionistic fuzzy set has been applied to game theory very rarely since it was introduced by atanassov in 1983. the aim of this paper is to develop an effective methodology for solving matrix games with payoffs of atanassov’s triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (tifns). in this methodology, the concepts and ranking order relations of atanassov’s tifns are defined. a pair of bi-object...

The new concept of a Z – number has been recently introduced in decision making analysis. This concept is capable of effectively dealing with uncertainty in information about a decision. As this concept is relatively new in fuzzy sets, its underlying theoretical aspects have not been established yet. In this paper, a multi-layer methodology for ranking Z – numbers is proposed for the first time...

In most of the commonly used approaches, the ranking of generalized fuzzy numbers is calculated based on the only one criterion i.e., rank criteria. However, there are some weaknesses associated with this criterion. In this paper, we discuss the insufficiency of considering only rank for the ordering of generalized fuzzy numbers. Some shortcomings in existing ranking methods have been pointed o...
