In this paper, the problem of determining the quality level, lead time for order delivery and price of a product produced by a manufacturer is considered. In this problem the demand for the product is influenced by all three decision variables: price, lead time and quality level. To formulate the demand function, a fuzzy rule base that estimates the demand value based on the three decision vari...

Fuzzy logic is recently getting increasing emphasis in soft computing applications in the recent days. This paper presents an application of the fuzzy logic scheme to control the speed of an AC servo system & the same is proposed for a space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) inverter-fed permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive. Based on the analysis of the PMSM transient response, a...

In 1966, (Imai and Iseki, 1966) defined a class of algebras of type (2, 0) named BCK-algebras. At the same time, (Iseki, 1966) generalized another class of algebras of type (2, 0) called BCI-algebras. Hu and Li (1983) introduced the concept of BCH-algebras and gave examples of proper BCH-algebras (Hu and Li, 1985). Neggers and Kim (2001) introduced and investigated a class of algebras, viz., th...

Owing to rapidly growing global competition, enterprises are increasingly focusing on their core competencies. The focal company faces the challenge of creating alliances with more suppliers to create outsourcing synergy and provide heterogeneous products for customers. This study proposes a fuzzy multiple attribute decision making (FMADM) method based on the fuzzy linguistic quantifier. An att...

The input to the freeform fabrication process is essentially geometric data, raw material, material data and process parameters. Optimal process parameters depend upon current material and the part geometry. This paper describes an research approach in which all necessary input including process parameters are obtained or derived from the product model. The part geometry with its process parame...

Nowadays, customer expectations are increasing and organizations are prone to operate in an uncertain environment. Under this uncertain environment, the ultimate success of the firm depends on its ability to integrate business processes among supply chain partners. Supply chain management emphasizes cross-functional links to improve the competitive strategy of organizations. Now, companies are ...

The article addresses comparison of fuzzy BKproduct approach with A* search algorithm for optimal path finding of the autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). The technique is designed to accomplish two missions: obstacle avoidance using ARTMAP and fuzzy BK-product and comparison of optimal path finding with A* search algorithm. In the first mission, underwater obstacle avoidance technique has al...

In this paper, we investigate the existence of a positive solution of fully fuzzy linear equation systems where fuzzy coefficient matrix is a positive matrix. This paper mainly discusses a new decomposition of a nonsingular fuzzy matrix, a symmetric matrix times to a triangular (ST) decomposition. By this decomposition, every nonsingular fuzzy matrix can be represented as a product of a fuzzy s...

The oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) performance over Na-W-Mn/SiO2 at elevated pressures has been simulated by adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) using reaction data gathered in an isothermal fixed bed microreactor. In the designed neuro fuzzy models, three important parameters such as methane to oxygen ratio, gas hourly space velocity (GHSV), and reaction temperature were conside...

The goal of this paper is to introduce the notions of , -double fuzzy ideals and , -double fuzzy ideal bases where and are strictly two-sided, commutative quanta and also investigate the relationships between these two structures. Then, we construct a functor from the category of , -double fuzzy ideal spaces to the category of , -double fuzzy cotopological spaces. Furthermore, we show the exist...
