a necessary and sufficient condition in terms of lower cut sets are given for the insertion of a $gamma-$continuous function between two comparable real-valued functions.

fault tree analysis (fta) as a probabilistic risk assessment (pra) method is used to identify basic causes leading to an undesired event, to represent logical relation of these basic causes in leading to the event, and finally to calculate the probability of occurrence of this event. to conduct a quantitative fta, one needs a fault tree along with failure data of the basic events (bes). someti...

The aim of this paper is to study the properties of t-cut set, strong t-cut set, t-quasi-cut set, strong t-quasi-cut set and ∈ ∨q-cut set of a fuzzy set μ. For any intuitionistic fuzzy A =< μA, νA > and α, β ∈ [0, 1], we define and study the properties of upper (α, β) cut setA(α,β), strong upper (α, β) cut setA(α, β) ̇ , lower (α, β) cut set A, strong lower (α, β) cut set A (α, β) ̇ , upper (α, β...
