pollen grain morphology of 15 taxa of the hedysareae tribe distributed throughout iran was studied using light and electron microscopy to identify major taxonomical characteristics of pollen grains. the pollen grains were tricolpate and tricolporate, prolate and perprolate. the ectocolpi were elongated, shallow or deep, narrowing at the poles. the colpus membrane was covered by large granules. ...

in this paper, we investigate the existence of a positive solution of fully fuzzy linear equation systems. this paper mainly to discuss a new decomposition of a nonsingular fuzzy matrix, the symmetric times triangular (st) decomposition. by this decomposition, every nonsingular fuzzy matrix can be represented as a product of a fuzzy symmetric matrix s and a fuzzy triangular matrix t.

the most promising method for micro scale energy scavenging is via vibration energy harvesting which converts mechanical energy to electrical energy by the effect of coupling between electric fields and mechanical variables. using piezoelectric cantilevers is the most common method for vibration energy harvesting. changing the shape of the cantilevers can lead to changing the generated output v...

jahanshahloo has suggested a method for the solving linear programming problems with zero-one variables‎. ‎in this paper we formulate fully fuzzy linear programming problems with zero-one variables and a method for solving these problems is presented using the ranking function and also the branch and bound method along with an example is presented.

We consider linear equality systems where all the parameters may be fuzzy variables specified by their possibility distribution, the operations addition and multiplication by a real number of fuzzy parameters are defined via a suptriangular norm composition, and the equations are understood in possibilistic sense. We show that when the triangular norm defining the operations and equations is co...

The Archimedean components of triangular norms (which turn the closed unit interval into an abelian, totally ordered semigroup with neutral element 1) are studied, in particular their extension to triangular norms, and some construction methods for Archimedean components are given. The triangular norms which are uniquely determined by their Archimedean components are characterized. Using ordina...

The main contribution of this paper is to introduce an autonomous definition of the connective “fuzzy exclusive or” (fuzzy Xor, for short), which is independent from others connectives. Also, two canonical definitions of the connective Xor are obtained from the composition of fuzzy connectives, and based on the commutative and associative properties related to the notions of triangular norms, t...
