Cost-time Minimization in a Transportation Problem with Fuzzy Parameters: A Case Study

چکیده

In real world applications the supply, the demand and the transportation cost per unit of the quantities in a transportation problem are hardly specified precisely because of the changing economic and environmental conditions. It is also important that the time required for transportation should be minimum. In this paper a method has been proposed for the minimization of transportation cost as well as time of transportation when the demand, supply and transportation cost per unit of the quantities are fuzzy. The problem is modeled as multi objective linear programming problem with imprecise parameters. Fuzzy parametric programming has been used to handle impreciseness and the resulting multi objective problem has been solved by prioritized goal programming approach. A case study has been made using the proposed approach.

A Grey Transportation Problem in Fuzzy Environment

In classical transport models, it is always assumed that parameters such as the distance from each supply node to each demand node or the cost of transferring goods from one node to another, as well as quantities such as supply and demand are definite and definite amounts. But in real matters, considering these assumptions is not logical. On the other hand, there may be a real problem in mathem...

Electromagnetism-like Algorithms for The Fuzzy Fixed Charge Transportation Problem

In this paper, we consider the fuzzy fixed-charge transportation problem (FFCTP). Both of fixed and transportation cost are fuzzy numbers. Contrary to previous works, Electromagnetism-like Algorithms (EM) is firstly proposed in this research area to solve the problem. Three types of EM; original EM, revised EM, and hybrid EM are firstly employed for the given problem. The latter is being firstl...
