the linear multiobjective transportation problem is a special type of vector minimum problem in which constraints are all equality type and the objectives are conicting in nature. this paper presents an application of fuzzy goal programming to the linear multiobjective transportation problem. in this paper, we use a special type of nonlinear (hyperbolic and exponential) membership functions to ...

triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (tifns) is a special case of intuitionistic fuzzy (if) set and the ranking of tifns is an important problem. the aim of this paper is to develop a new methodology for ranking tifns by using multiattribute decision making methods (madm). in this methodology, the value and ambiguity indices of tifns may be considered as the attributes and the tifns in compa...

This study proposes a combination of a fuzzy sliding mode controller (FSMC) with integral-proportion-Derivative switching surface based superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) and PID tuned by a multi-objective optimization algorithm to solve the load frequency control in power systems. The goal of design is to improve the dynamic response of power systems after load demand changes. In t...

In automotive industry fixtures have a direct effect on product manufacturing quality, productivity and cost, as a result fixtures, particularly welding fixture, play a crucial role in the auto industry. The fixture is a special tool for holding a work piece in proper position during manufacturing operation, so in the phase of the fixture design process positioning pins and surfaces are used to...

variational iteration method using he's polynomials can be used to construct solitary solution and  compacton-like solution for nonlinear dispersive equatioons. the chosen initial solution can be determined in compacton-like form or in solitary form with some compacton-like or solitary forms with some unknown parameters, which can be determined in the solution procedure. the compacton-like solu...

in this paper, the approximate solution of the differential system modeling hiv infection of cd4+ t cells isobtained by a reliable algorithm based on an adaptation of the standard variational iteration method (vim), which is called the multi-stage variational iteration method(msvim). a comparison between msvim and the fourthorder runge-kutta method (rk4-method) reveal that the proposed techniqu...
