In recent work authors have proposed four new aggregation operators for triangular and trapezoidal fuzzy numbers based on means of apex angles [1][2][3][4]. Subsequently authors have proposed [5] a new aggregation operator for TFNs based on the arithmetic mean of slopes of the Land Rmembership lines. In this paper the work is extended and a new aggregation operator for TFNs is proposed in which...

Direct implementation of extended arithmetic operators on fuzzy numbers is computationally complex. Implementation of the extension principle is equivalent to solving a nonlinear programming problem. To overcome this difficulty many applications limit the membership functions to certain shapes, usually either triangular fuzzy numbers (TFN) or trapezoidal fuzzy numbers (TrFN). Then calculation o...

In recent work authors have proposed four new aggregation operators based on the arithmetic and geometric means of the Land Ror right side and left side apex angles for triangular [1] [2] and trapezoidal [3] [4] fuzzy numbers respectively. In this paper authors propose a new aggregation operator for TFNs in which the Land Rmembership function lines of the aggregate TFN have slopes which are the...

The main purposes of this paper are to probe for the entropy differences between arithmetically manipulated Triangular Fuzzy Numbers (TFNs) using Shannon’s Function; and to study the relationships between any two TFNs. Simultaneously, we expand on the articles of Wang et al. [6] and Wang et al. [5]. The entropy differences between two TFNs subjected to different arithmetic operations are classi...

In previous work, authors have proposed two new aggregation operators for a class of LR fuzzy numbers known as triangular fuzzy numbers (TFNs) in which the Land Rapex angles of the piecewise continuous linear membership function of the composite or resultant or aggregate TFN are the arithmetic means [1] and the geometric means [2] of the Land Rapex angles of the individual TFNs. In another pape...

We establish relationships between the set of trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy numbers and the set of interval-valued trapezoidal fuzzy numbers and, on the other hand, between the set of triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers and the set of triangular fuzzy numbers. Based on these main results of the paper, the methods or procedures elaborated for interval-valued trapezoidal or triangular fuzz...

In conventional transportation problem (TP), supplies, demands and costs are always certain. In this paper, the author tried to categories the TP under the mixture of certain and uncertain environment and formulates the problem and utilizes the crisp numbers, triangular fuzzy numbers (TFNs) and trapezoidal fuzzy numbers (TrFNs) to solve the TP. The existing ranking procedure of Liou and Wang is...

In this paper a new aggregation operator for a class of LR Fuzzy Numbers i.e., Triangular Fuzzy Numbers (TFNs) in which the Land Rapex angles of the piecewise continuous linear membership function of the composite or resultant or aggregate TFN are the arithmetic means of the corresponding Land Rapex angles of the individual TFNs is proposed. The Land Rapex angles have been treated independently...

In the fuzzy arithmetic, the definitions of addition and multiplication of fuzzy numbers are based on Zadeh’s extension principle. From theoretical and practical points of view, this multiplication of fuzzy numbers owns several unnatural properties. Recently, to avoid this shortcoming, a new multiplicative operation of product type is introduced, the so-called cross-product of fuzzy numbers. Th...
