The weaving machine’s reliability is assessed using newly introduced fuzzy numbers. The fuzzy numbers introduced in this study give a better method to improve the reliability than other techniques. Pendant Fuzzy Number, Hexant Fuzzy Number, and Octant Fuzzy Number are all introduced in this present study. Pendant Fuzzy Number, Hexant Fuzzy Number, and Octant Fuzzy Number,α-cuts are defined, as well as their mathematical operations. The numerical examples are utilised to conduct a comparative research of reliability using various Fuzzy Numbers, and their defuzzification is accomplished using various ways such as Signed Distance method, Graded Mean Integration Method and Centroid Method. The purpose of this study is to discover the most reliable value for a weaving machine.

This paper deals with an adaptation of an application of nonlinear heptagonal dense fuzzy number. The concept of linear and as well as non-linear for both symmetric and asymmetric heptagonal dense fuzzy number is introduced here. We develop a new ranking method for non-linear heptagonal dense fuzzy number also. Considering a backorder inventory model with non-linear heptagonal dense fuzzy demand rate we have utilized a modified centroid method for defuzzification. For decision maker’s aspects, numerical examples, comparative study with other dense fuzzy numbers and a sensitivity analysis show the superiority of the nonlinear heptagonal dense fuzzy number. Finally, graphical illustrations are made to justify the model followed by a conclusion.

This paper considers an inventory model in which the shortages are backlogged and the demand is dependent on unit cost. An optimum value for average total cost is calculated by considering various input costs, lot size and maximum inventory under fuzzy environment. The process of defuzzification is done by using the signed distance method. Numerical example and sensitivity analysis is given for calculating both crisp and fuzzy values of the total cost.

This paper formulates an economic order quantity inventory model under the condition of permissible delay in payments in fuzzy environment. All the parameters of the model, excluding permissible delay period and cycle length, are taken to be trapezoidal Fuzzy numbers. The arithmetic operations are defined under the function principle. The cost function has been defuzzified using signed distance method and thereby solved to obtain the optimal replenishment period. The numerical example is presented to show the validity of the model followed by sensitivity analysis.

Different methods have been proposed for ranking fuzzy numbers. These include methods based on distances, centroid point, coefficient of variation, and weighted mean value. However, there is still no method that can always give a satisfactory result to every situation; some are counterintuitive and not discriminating. This paper presents an approach for ranking fuzzy numbers with integral value that is an extension of the index of Liou and Wang. This method, that is independent of the type of membership function used, can rank more than two fuzzy numbers simultaneously. This ranking method use an index of optimism to reflect the decision maker's optimistic attitude, but rather it also contains an index of modality that represents the neutrality of the decision maker. The approach is illustrated with numerical examples.

In this paper, a novel approach to ranking fuzzy numbers based on the mean and the fuzzy degree of fuzzy number is proposed. In the approach, a new ranking index that is comprehensive consideration of the mean and the fuzzy degree of fuzzy number is constructed, and then the properties of the ranking index are given. Moreover, to compare the proposed approach with the existing approaches, numerical examples are given. The comparative results illustrate that the approach proposed in this paper is better and has simpler calculations.

Fuzzy numbers are used to represent uncertainty. Various types of fuzzy numbers are used in practical applications. In this paper we define Perfect Pentagonal Fuzzy Number (PPFN), Quadrilateral Fuzzy Number (QNF) and Left skewed Quadrilateral Fuzzy Number and Right skewed Quadrilateral Fuzzy Number. We study their algebraic properties with numerical examples.
