The present paper attempts to study the unbalanced fuzzy transportation problem so as to minimize the transportationcost of products when supply, demand and cost of the products are represented by fuzzy numbers. In this paper, authorsuse Roubast ranking technique to transform trapezoidal fuzzy numbers to crisp numbers and propose a new algorithm tofind the fuzzy optimal solution of unbalanced fuzzy transportation problem. The proposed algorithm is more efficient thanother existing algorithms like simple VAM and is illustrated via numerical example. Also, a comparison between the resultsof the new algorithm and the result of algorithm using simple VAM is provided.

In this paper, a method is proposed to find the fuzzy optimal solution of fuzzy transportation model by representing all the parameters as trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. To illustrate the proposed method a fuzzy transportation problem is solved by using the proposed method and the results are obtained. The proposed method is easy to understand, and to apply for finding the fuzzy optimal solution of fuzzy transportation models in real life situations. However, we propose the method of fuzzy modified distribution for finding out the optimal solution for minimizing the cost of total fuzzy transportation. The advantages of the proposed method are also discussed.

The drawbacks of the existing methods to obtain the fuzzy optimal solution of such linear programming problems, in which coefficients of the constraints are represented by real numbers and all the other parameters as well as variables are represented by symmetric trapezoidal fuzzy numbers, are pointed out, and to resolve these drawbacks, a new method (named as Mehar method) is proposed for the same linear programming problems. Also, with the help of proposed Mehar method, a new method, much easy as compared to the existing methods, is proposed to deal with the sensitivity analysis of the same type of linear programming problems.

There are several methods, in literature, for finding the fuzzy optimal solution of fully fuzzy transportation problems (transportation problems in which all the parameters are represented by fuzzy numbers). In this paper, the shortcomings of some existing methods are pointed out and to overcome these shortcomings, two new methods (based on fuzzy linear programming formulation and classical transportation methods) are proposed to find the fuzzy optimal solution of unbalanced fuzzy transportation problems by representing all the parameters as trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. The advantages of the proposed methods over existing methods are also discussed. To illustrate the proposed methods a fuzzy transportation problem (FTP) is solved by using the proposed methods and the obtained results are discussed. The proposed methods are easy to understand and to apply for finding the fuzzy optimal solution of fuzzy transportation problems occurring in real life situations.
