Abstract:

In this paper, we study the linear fractional transportation problem with uncertain arameters. After recalling some definitions, concepts and theorems in uncertainty theory we present three approaches for solving this problem. First we consider the expected value of the objective function together with the expectation of satisfying constraints. Optimizing the expected value of the objective function with considering chance constrained method for the restrictions is our second approach. In the third approach we add the objective function to the constraints and solve again the problem by chance constrained method. A numerical example is solved by three approaches and their solutions are compaired.

E-model for Transportation Problem of Linear Stochastic Fractional Programming

This paper deals with the so-called transportation problem of linear stochastic fractional programming, and emphasizes the wide applicability of LSFP. The transportation problem, received this name because many of its applications involve in determining how to optimally transport goods. However, some of its applications (e.g., production scheduling) actually have nothing to do with transportati...

Generalized linear fractional programming under interval uncertainty

Data in many real-life engineering and economical problems suffer from inexactness. Herein we assume that we are given some intervals in which the data can simultaneously and independently perturb. We consider a generalized linear fractional programming problem with interval data and present an efficient method for computing the range of optimal values. The method reduces the problem to solving...

Fixed Charge Capacitated Non-Linear Transportation Problem

The fixed charge (fixed cost) may present the cost of renting a vehicle, landing fees in an airport, setup cost for machines in a manufacturing environment, etc. In this paper, we discuss fixed charge capacitated in a non-linear transportation problem. Thereby, we establish local optimum condition of this problem. Next we establish an algorithm for solving this transportation problem. Also, we ...
