The Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets (IFSs), proposed in 1983, are extensions of fuzzy sets. Some years after their introduction, sequentially, intuitionistic fuzzy propositional logic, intuitionistic fuzzy predicate logic, intuitionistic fuzzy modal logic and intuitionistic fuzzy temporal logic have been introduced, presented here shortly. During the last 25 years, different intuitionistic fuzzy tool...

Interval neutrosophic set (INS) is a generalization of interval valued intuitionistic fuzzy set (IVIFS), whose the membership and non-membership values of elements consist of fuzzy range, while single valued neutrosophic set (SVNS) is regarded as extension of intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS). In this paper, we extend the hierarchical clustering techniques proposed for IFSs and IVIFSs to SVNSs and...

We exploit the fact that the classical Bernoulli systems are con-tractive iterated function systems (IFS) of affine type to prove a number of properties of the infinite Bernoulli convolution measures ν λ. We develop and use a new duality notion for affine IFSs. This duality is based on a natural transfer operator R W , and on an associated random walk process Px. We show that the absolute-squar...

Received: October 28, 2017 Revised: December 28, 2017 Accepted: January 30, 2018 Abstract: Background: When patient(s) approach to a medical expert to explain their problems, they often explain their conditions through vague linguistic expression [1]. Medical expert needs to prepare a list of potential symptoms for the particular diseases of the patients based on their vague linguistic statemen...

In this work, ozone modification method and air-oxidation are used for the surface treatment of polyacrylonitrile(PAN)based carbon fiber. The surface characteristics of carbon fibers are characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The interfacial properties of carbon fiber reinforced polyamide 6 (CF/PA6) composites are investigated by means of the single fiber pull-out tests. As a ...

Transportation systems play a key role in urban development by providing access for people to markets and education, employment, health care, recreation, other services. However, uncontrolled population fast growth of vehicle mobility inevitably lead unsustainable transportation terms economic, technical, social, geographical aspects sustainability. Thus, there is need select suitable sustainab...

The English classroom teaching effect evaluation is looked as the multiattribute group decision-making (MAGDM). Thus, a useful MAGDM algorithm needed to cope with it. Depending on classical GRA process and interval-valued IFSs (IVIFSs), this study builds IVIF-GRA assess effect. First of all, concepts IVIFSs are reviewed. In addition, weights criteria derived through CRITIC method. Afterwards, m...

It is often suggested that optimization of the fibre-matrix interfacial adhesion essential to improve mechanical performance natural fibre reinforced thermoplastic compounds. The use such composites in many applications requires characterisation over a range temperatures. This paper presents study on measurements coir with various polyolefin matrices at room temperature. We then present novel a...

Interval-valued Pythagorean fuzzy sets (IVPFSs) as enhanced type of (PFSs) improve the expression degrees membership, non-membership and hesitancy in comparison with intuitionistic (IFSs). In this paper, to use advantages IVPFSs a new group decision-making method is introduced based on linear assignment (LAM). approach, subjective objective weights criteria are taken into account. Moreover, app...
