This paper suggests  a novel approach for ranking the most applicable fuzzy numbers, i.e.  $LR$-fuzzy numbers. Applying the  $alpha$-optimistic values of a fuzzy number, a preference criterion is proposed for ranking fuzzy numbers using the Credibility index. The main properties of the proposed  preference criterion  are also studied.  Moreover, the proposed method is   applied for ranking fuzz...

In paper the fuzzy linear system d x C x A ~ ~ ~   where A and C are crisp matrices and n m  d~ is a LR fuzzy numbers vector, is investigated in detail. We generalize the definition and arithmetic operations of LR fuzzy numbers and convert the dual fuzzy linear system to two crisp systems of linear equations. Then the minimal fuzzy solution of the original fuzzy system is obtained by solving...

The basic transportation problem was originally developed by Hitchcock. In the literature several methods are proposed for solving Fuzzy transportation problem. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm called Fuzzy Russell’s method for the initial basic feasible solution to a Fuzzy transportation problem. To examine the proposed method a numerical example is solved. Fuzzy numbers may be normal...

To the best of our knowledge, there is no method in the literature to find the fuzzy optimal solution of fully fuzzy critical path (FFCP) problems i.e., critical path problems in which all the parameters are represented by LR flat fuzzy numbers. In this paper, a new method is proposed for the same. Also, it is shown that it is better to use JMD representation of LR flat fuzzy numbers in the pro...

AX B In the paper, a class of fuzzy matrix equations    B where A is an m × n crisp matrix and is an m × p arbitrary LR fuzzy numbers matrix, is investigated. We convert the fuzzy matrix equation into two crisp matrix equations. Then the fuzzy approximate solution of the fuzzy matrix equation is obtained by solving two crisp matrix equations. The existence condition of the strong LR fuzzy s...

In this paper, we present a solution of an arbitrary general fully fuzzy linear systems (FFLS) in the form Ã⊗ x̃ = b̃. Where coefficient matrix à is anm×n fuzzy matrix and all of this system are elements of LR type fuzzy numbers. Our method discuss a general FFLS (square or rectangle fully fuzzy linear systems with trapezoidal or triangular LR fuzzy numbers). To do this, we transform fully fuzzy ...
