In this paper, we want proposed a new method for ranking in areas of two generalized trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. A simpler and easier approach is proposed for the ranking of generalized trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. For the confirmation this results, we compared with different existing approaches. 2010 AMS CLASSIFICATION: 47S20, 03E72.

this study considers an eoq inventory model with advance payment policy in a fuzzy situation by employing two types of fuzzy numbers that are trapezoidal and triangular. two fuzzy models are developed here. in the first model the cost parameters are fuzzified, but the demand rate is treated as crisp constant. in the second model, the demand rate is fuzzified but the cost parameters are treated ...

Product planning is one of four important processes in new product development (NPD) using quality function deployment (QFD), which is a widely used customer-driven approach. In our opinion, the first problem to be solved is how to incorporate both qualitative and quantitative information regarding relationships between customer requirements (CRs) and engineering characteristics (ECs) as well a...

The fuzzy c-means clustering algorithm is a useful tool for clustering; but it is convenient only for crisp complete data. In this article, an enhancement of the algorithm is proposed which is suitable for clustering trapezoidal fuzzy data. A linear ranking function is used to define a distance for trapezoidal fuzzy data. Then, as an application, a method based on the proposed algorithm is pres...

This paper presents a new class of fuzzy expectation data envelopment analysis (FEDEA) models with credibility constraints. Since the proposed model contains the credibility of fuzzy events in the constraints and the expected value of a fuzzy variable in the objective, the solution process is very complex. Thus, in the case when the inputs and outputs are mutually independent trapezoidal fuzzy ...

The railway transportation planning under the fuzzy environment is investigated in this paper. As a main result, a new modeling method, called minimum risk chance-constrained model, is presented based on the credibility measure. For the convenience ofs olving the mathematical model, the crisp equivalents ofc hance functions are analyzed under the condition that the involved fuzzy parameter...

In the present paper, the study of fully fuzzy linear fractional programming problem (FFLFPP) using graded mean integration representation method is discussed where all the parameters and variables are characterized by trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. A computational algorithm has been presented to obtain an optimal solution by applying simplex method. To demonstrate the applicability of the proposed...

this paper considers the fuzzy inventory model for deteriorating items for power demand under fully backlogged conditions. we define various factors which are affecting the inventory cost by using the shortage costs. an intention of this paper is to study the inventory modelling through fuzzy environment. inventory parameters, such as holding cost, shortage cost, purchasing cost and deteriorati...

In this paper, the problem of low probability of identification (LPID) improvement for radar network systems is investigated. Firstly, the security information is derived to evaluate the LPID performance for radar network. Then, without any prior knowledge of hostile intercept receiver, a novel fuzzy chance-constrained programming (FCCP) based security information optimization scheme is present...
