Hybrid energy storage system (HESS) composed of lithium-ion battery and supercapacitors has been recognized as one of the most promising solutions to face against the high cost, low power density and short cycle life of the battery-only energy storage system, which is the major headache hindering the further penetration of electric vehicles. In this work, the HESS sizing and energy management p...

In this paper we introduce the concept of fuzzy generalized bi-ideal of a Γsemigroup, which is an extension of the concept of a fuzzy bi-ideal of a Γsemigroup and characterize regular Γ-semigroups in terms of fuzzy generalized bi-ideals. AMS Mathematics Subject Classification(2000): 08A72, 20M12, 3F55

More general forms of the paper by O. Kazanci and S. Yamak (Generalized fuzzy bi-ideals of semigroups, Soft Comput. 12, 1119–1124, 2008) are discussed. The notion of (∈,∈∨ qk)-fuzzy bi-ideals in a semigroup S is introduced, and several properties are investigated. Characterizations of an (∈,∈∨ qk)-fuzzy bi-ideal in a semigroup S are discussed.

this paper presents a mathematical model for a flow shop scheduling problem consisting of m machine and n jobs with fuzzy processing times that can be estimated as independent stochastic or fuzzy numbers. in the traditional flow shop scheduling problem, the typical objective is to minimize the makespan). however,, two significant criteria for each schedule in stochastic models are: expectable m...

In this paper, we introduce the notion of ($epsilon $, $epsilon $ $vee$ q_{k})− fuzzy subnear-ring which is a generalization of ($epsilon $, $epsilon $ $vee$ q)−fuzzy subnear-ring. We have given examples which are ($epsilon $, $epsilon $ $vee$ q_{k})−fuzzy ideals but they are not ($epsilon $, $epsilon $ $vee$ q)−fuzzy ideals. We have also introduced the notions of ($epsilon $, $epsilon $ $vee$ ...

the intuitionistic fuzzy set has been applied to game theory very rarely since it was introduced by atanassov in 1983. the aim of this paper is to develop an effective methodology for solving matrix games with payoffs of atanassov’s triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (tifns). in this methodology, the concepts and ranking order relations of atanassov’s tifns are defined. a pair of bi-object...

in this paper, the researchers present a multi-objective linear fractional inventory model using fuzzy pro-gramming. the proposed method in this paper is applied to a problem with two objective functions. the re-sulted fuzzy model is transformed into an ordinary linear programming. the implementation of the develop-ing model presented in this paper is demonstrated through the use of some numeri...

design and expansion of distribution systems seems inevitable in view of the need to satisfy the rise in energy consumption in a technical and economical way. optimal location, sizing and determining the service area of substations is one of the principle problems in expansion of distribution systems. also uncertainty is one of the important factors that increase risk of exact decision makings....

Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from municipal solid waste (MSW) management significantly contribute to high global warming potential (GWP). However, most studies have failed to facilitate identifying MSW management schemes capable of comprehensively meeting the goals from decision-makers at different hierarchical levels under uncertainties. This study develops an inexact bi-level linear program...

In this paper we introduce bipolar fuzzy subsemigroup, bipolar fuzzy left (right) ideals and bipolar fuzzy bi-ideal in ordered semigroups. We characterize different classes of ordered semigroups by the properties of their bipolar fuzzy ideals and bipolar fuzzy bi-ideals.
