The effective management of failure risk of buried infrastructure assets requires knowledge of their current condition, their rate of deterioration, the expected consequences of their failure and the owner's (decision-maker) risk tolerance. Fuzzy-based techniques seem to be particularly suited to modeling the deterioration of buried infrastructure assets, for which data are scarce, cause-effect...

The aim of this article is to study the concept of unique solvability of max-min fuzzy neutrosophic soft matrix equation and strong regularity of fuzzy neutrosophic soft matrices over Fuzzy Neutrosophic Soft Algebra (FNSA). A Fuzzy Neutrosophic Soft Matrix (FNSM) is said to have Strong, Linear Independent (SLI) column (or, in the case of fuzzy neutrosophic soft square matrices, to be strongly r...

a‎s we know, developing mathematical models and numerical procedures that would appropriately treat and solve systems of linear equations where some of the system's parameters are proposed as fuzzy numbers is very important in fuzzy set theory. for this reason, many researchers have used various numerical methods to solve fuzzy linear systems. in this paper, we define the concepts of midpoint a...

⎯ In our paper, the properties of the simplest Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy controller are first investigated. Next, based on the well-known Popov criterion with graphical interpretation, a sufficient condition in the frequency domain is proposed to guarantee the globally asymptotical stability of the simplest T-S fuzzy control system. Since this sufficient condition is presented in the frequency ...

In the paper the problem of mathematical properties of B-operations and weak WB-operations introduced by the author for interpretation of connectives “and”, “or”, and “also” in fuzzy rules is considered. In previous author’s papers some interesting properties of fuzzy systems with these operations were shown. These operations are weaker than triangular norms used commonly for a fuzzy system des...

We study closure operators and closure structures in a fuzzy setting. Our main interest is the monotony condition of closure operators. In a fuzzy setting, the monotony condition may take several particular forms, all of them equivalent in the bivalent case. We study closure operators, called fuzzy closure operators with truth stresser, satisfying the monotony condition which can be linguistica...

We shall prove the existence and uniqueness theorem of a solution to the nonlocal fuzzy differential equation using the contraction mapping principle. Ams Mathematics Subject Classification : 94D05, 34C27

Using order relations on the space of fuzzy numbers, we define the levels of fuzzy number valued mappings and we present some topologicals and geometrics properties. We use this concept to locate points and the set of points that solve a problem of fuzzy optimization. Consequently we obtain a necessary condition, for means of fuzzy integrals, for fuzzy global optimality.

The fuzzy logic technique is one of the effective approaches for evaluating flexible and rigid pavement distress. process classifying distress usually performed by visual inspection surface or using data collected automated measurement equipment. Fuzzy mathematics provides a convenient tool incorporating subjective analysis, uncertainty in condition index, maintenance-needs assessment, can grea...
