This paper presents solution technique of geometric programming with fuzzy parameters to solve structural model. Here we are considered all fuzzy parameters as a generalized fuzzy number i.e. generalized triangular fuzzy number and generalized trapezoidal fuzzy number. Here material density of the bar, permissible stress of each bar and applied load are fuzzy numbers. We use geometric programmi...

The purpose of this research paper was to propose a method which can be utilized to determine the different types of performance measures on the basis of the crisp values for the fuzzy queuing model which has an unreliable server and where the rate of arrival, the rate of service, the rate of breakdown and the rate of repair are all expressed as the fuzzy numbers. In this case the inter arrival...

‎The importance of Problem Solving (PS) has been realized for such a long time that in a direct or indirect way affects our daily lives in many ways‎. ‎Assessment cases appear frequently for PS skills which involve a degree of uncertainty and (or) ambiguity‎. ‎Fuzzy logic‎, ‎due to its nature of characterizing such cases with multiple values‎, ‎offers rich resources for dealing with them‎. ‎On ...

ranking fuzzy numbers plays a very important role in linguistic decision making and other fuzzy application systems. in spite of many ranking methods, no one can rank fuzzy numbers with human intuition consistently in all cases. shortcoming are found in some of the convenient methods for ranking triangular fuzzy numbers such as the coefficient of variation (cv index), distance between fuzzy set...

although there are many excellent ways presenting the principle of the classical calculus, the novel presentations probably leads most naturally to the development of the non-newtonian calculus. the important point to note is that the non-newtonian calculus is a self-contained system independent of any other system of calculus. since this self-contained work is intended for a wide audience, inc...

In this paper, we present a solution of an arbitrary general fully fuzzy linear systems (FFLS) in the form Ã⊗ x̃ = b̃. Where coefficient matrix à is anm×n fuzzy matrix and all of this system are elements of LR type fuzzy numbers. Our method discuss a general FFLS (square or rectangle fully fuzzy linear systems with trapezoidal or triangular LR fuzzy numbers). To do this, we transform fully fuzzy ...

In 2007, Zeng and Li proposed a weighted triangular approximation of a fuzzy number. Unfortunately, this approximation may fail to be a fuzzy number. In this paper, we improve this approximation and propose a generalization by the name of weighted trapezoidal approximation. Their algorithms are also presented. Finally, some examples and relevant properties are discussed. © 2009 Elsevier B.V. Al...

Recent articles of Sánchez and Gómez (2003a, 2003b, 2004) addressed the subject of fuzzy regression (FR) and the term structure of interest rates (TSIR). Following Tanaka et. al. (1982), their regression models included a fuzzy output, fuzzy coefficients and an non-fuzzy input vector. The fuzzy components were assumed to be triangular fuzzy numbers (TFNs). The basic idea was to minimize the fuz...

Assignment problem is a well-known topic and is used very often in solving problems of engineering and management science. In this problem denotes the cost for assigning the job to the person. This cost is usually deterministic in nature. In this paper has been considered to be triangular or trapezoidal fuzzy numbers denoted by ̃ which are more realistic and general in nature. A new ranking meth...

In this paper, two-person matrix games is considered whose elements of pay-off matrix are triangular fuzzy numbers (TFNs). To solve such game a new method based on α-cut of TFN is developed for each of the players. In this method, two auxiliary bi-objective linear programming (BOLP) models are derived. Then using average weighted approach these two BOLP models are decomposed into two auxiliary ...
