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...

a fully fuzzy linear programming (fflp) formulation for the reservoir operation of amultipurpose reservoir in presented in the ongoing paper. in the real world, water resourcessystems usually have complexities among social, economic, natural resources andenvironmental aspects, which lead to multi-objective problems of significant uncertainties insystem parameters, objectives and in their intera...

This paper focuses on multiobjective linear programming problems involving fuzzy random variable coefficients. A new decision making model and Pareto optimal solution concept are proposed using α-level cuts of membership function. It is shown that the problem including both randomness and fuzziness is equivalently transformed into a deterministic problem. An interactive algorithm is proposed in...

generally, an engineering design problem has multiple objective functions. some of these problems can be formulated as multiobjective geometric programming models. on the other hand,often in the real world, coefficients of the objective functions are not known precisely. coefficients may be interpreted as fuzzy numbers, which lead to a multiobjective geometric programming with fuzzy parameters....

Type-2 (T2) fuzzy variable is an extension of an ordinary fuzzy variable. In fuzzy possibility theory, T2 fuzzy variable is defined as a measurable map from the universe to the set of real numbers, and the possibility of a T2 fuzzy variable takes on a real number is a regular fuzzy variable (RFV). T2 fuzziness, which is usually used to handle linguistic uncertainties, can be described as T2 fuz...

Fishburne coefficients, fuzzy knowledge, membership function. Abstract— We have considered designation and structure of the knowledge acquisition block of the expert system for technical and technological service of complex machines. The main aspects of fuzzy expert knowledge representation designated for setting parameters of the machines technological adjustment have been studied. The block o...

This paper considers interactive fuzzy programming for multi-level 0-1 programming problems involving random variable coefficients both in objective functions and constraints. Following the concept of fractile criterion optimization together with chance constrained programming, the formulated stochastic multi-level 0-1 programming problems are transformed into deterministic ones. Taking into ac...
