In this paper, the solution to Fuzzy sequential Fractional Initial Value Problem [FFIVP] under Caputo type fuzzy fractional derivatives by a modified fractional Euler method is presented. The Caputo-type fuzzy fractional derivatives are defined based on Hukuhara difference and strongly generalized fuzzy differentiability. The modified fractional Euler method based on a generalized Taylors formu...

The aim of this paper is to investigate the multiple attribute decision making problems to deal with supplier selection with intuitionistic trapezoidal fuzzy information, in which the information about attribute weights is completely known, and the attribute values take the form of intuitionistic trapezoidal fuzzy number. We developed a multiple attribute decision making method by closeness to ...

A b s t r a c t . Numerous authors have proposed functions to quantify the degree of similarity between two fuzzy numbers using various descriptive parameters, such as the geometric distance, the distance between the centers of gravity or the perimeter. However, these similarity functions have drawbacks for specific situations. We propose a new similarity measure for generalized trapezoidal fuz...

In some cases, our uncertainty about about a quantity can be described by an interval of its possible values. If we have two or more pieces of interval information about the same quantity, then we can conclude that the actual value belongs to the intersection of these intervals. In general, we may need a fuzzy number to represent our partial knowledge. A fuzzy number can be viewed as a collecti...

Ranking fuzzy numbers plays a main role in many applied models inreal world and in particular decision-making procedures. In manyproposed methods by other researchers may exist some shortcoming.The most commonly used approaches for ranking fuzzy numbers isbased on defuzzification method. Many ranking fuzzy numberscannot discriminate between two symmetric fuzzy numbers withidentical core. In 200...

In the current presentation, we suggest a very simple and effective post-processing procedure to increase the order of accuracy in time for numerical results obtained at time integration of linear elastodynamics problems by the trapezoidal rule. This technique is based on a new exact, closed-form, a-priori error estimator for time integration of linear elastodynamics equations by the trapezoida...

In this paper I will introduce the trapezoidal intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (IF numbers) and will prove some operations for them. Also I am going to propose a new ordering method for IF numbers in which I will consider two characteristic values of membership and non-membership functions for an IF number. These values are defined by the integral of the inverse fuzzy membership and non-membership...

Ranking of fuzzy numbers play an important role in decision making, optimization and forecasting etc. Fuzzy numbers must be ranked before an action is taken by a decision maker. In this paper, with the help of several counter examples, it is proved that ranking method proposed by Chen and Chen (Expert Systems with Applications 36 (3): 6833) is incorrect. The main aim of this paper is to propose...

The objective of the study is to present cosine similarity measure based multi-attribute decision making under neutrosophic environment. The assesments of alternatives over the attributes are expressed with trapezoidal fuzzy neutrosophic numbers in which the three independent components namely, truth-membership degree (T), indeterminacy-membership degree (I) and falsity-membership degree (F) ar...
