in some multi-attribute decision making (madm) problems, various relationships among the decision attributes should be considered. this paper investigates the prioritization relationship of attributes in madm with trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (trifns). trifns are a special intuitionistic fuzzy set on a real number set and have the better capability to model ill-known quantities. fir...

A fractional trapezoidal rule type difference scheme for fractional order integro-differential equation is considered. The equation is discretized in time by means of a method based on the trapezoidal rule: while the time derivative is approximated by the standard trapezoidal rule, the integral term is discretized by means of a fractional quadrature rule constructed again from the trapezoidal r...

It is generally agreed that of all quadrature formulae, the trapezoidal rule, while being the simplest, is also the least accurate. There is, however, a rather general class of integrals for which the trapezoidal rule can be shown to be a highly accurate means of obtaining numerical values. Specifically, if the integrand is a periodic, even function with all derivatives continuous, then the int...

In this paper, we prove new distance properties between a fuzzy number and its trapezoidal approximation preserving the expected interval. Then, we find the best Lipschitz constant of the trapezoidal approximation operator preserving the expected interval. Finally, we use this result in finding within a reasonable error the trapezoidal approximation of a fuzzy number preserving the expected int...

Many authors analyzed triangular and trapezoidal approximation of fuzzy numbers. But, to best of our knowledge, there is no method for symmetric trapezoidal fuzzy number approximation of fuzzy numbers. So, in this paper, we try to convert any fuzzy number into symmetric trapezoidal fuzzy number by using metric distance. This approximation helps us to avoid the computational complexity in the pr...

We propose a new approach to assigning distance between fuzzy numbers. A pseudo-metric on the set of fuzzy numbers and a metric on the set of trapezoidal fuzzy numbers are described. The regular reducing functions and the Hausdorff metric are used to define the metric. Using this metric, we can approximate an arbitrary generalized left right fuzzy number with a trapezoidal one. Finally, powers ...

Defuzzification is the process of converting a fuzzy quantity to precise quantity, just as fuzzification is the conversion of a precise quantity to a fuzzy quantity. Various types of defuzzification methods, are available for conversion of fuzzy to non-fuzzy. In this paper, defuzzification functions in intuitionistic fuzzy environment such as triangular, trapezoidal, L-trapezoidal, R-trapezoida...

trapezoidal channels are frequently used in irrigation networks and other free surface water conveyance systems. the computation of the critical flow depth is one of the primary importance in the design process. it is usually determined by using design charts of iteration techniques. however, researchers have recently proposed formulas that directly provide approximate solutions. this paper pre...
