Consider a series-parallel (parallel-series) system composed of [Formula: see text] subsystems subject to [Formula: see text] independent stochastically identical nonhomogeneous Poisson processes, its reliability optimization problems are analysed in this paper. The reliability function of the series-parallel (parallel-series) system is presented. We study the optimal subsystems grouping policy to maximize the system reliability. It is shown that the series-parallel (parallel-series) system is more reliable (unreliable) when more subsystems share a common combined shock process. Different allocation policies of components are compared in terms of majorization order. Some examples are given to illustrate the results.

Here, we appraise the reliability for numerous complex structures (series structure, parallel structure and bridge structure) using accuracy and score function under fuzzy environment. The main focus of this effort is to address an advanced technique for fuzzy reliability evaluation of various complex systems having different arrangements by treating reliability of the unit/component as an interval valued intuitionistic hesitant fuzzy element. This technique helps to handle uncertainty and hesitancy in multi-attribute group decision-making related issues, specially when information occurs in interval form in fuzzy set. A numerical illustration is also included to demonstrate the proposed technique.

Based on the operational laws on interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets, the generalized Banzhaf interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy geometric Choquet (GBIVIFGC) operator is proposed, which is also an interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy value. It is worth pointing out that the GBIVIFGC operator can be seen as an extension of some geometric mean operators. Since the fuzzy measure is defined on the power set, it makes the problem exponentially complex. In order to overall reflect the interaction among elements and reduce the complexity of solving a fuzzy measure, we further introduce the GBIVIFGC operator w.r.t. 2-additive measures. Furthermore, if the information about weights of experts and attributes is incompletely known, the models of obtaining the optimal 2-additive measures on criteria set and expert set are given by using the introduced cross entropy measure and the Banzhaf index. Finally, an approach to pattern recognition and multi-criteria group decision making under interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy environment is developed, respectively.

The redundancy optimization problem is formulated for an uncertain parallel-series system with warm standby elements. The lifetimes and costs of elements are considered uncertain variables, and the weights and volumes of elements are random variables. The uncertain measure optimization model (UMOM), the uncertain optimistic value optimization model (UOVOM), and the uncertain cost optimization model (UCOM) are developed through reliability maximization, lifetime maximization, and cost minimization, respectively. An efficient simulation optimization algorithm is provided to calculate the objective values and optimal solutions of the UMOM, UOVOM, and UCOM. A numerical example is presented to illustrate the rationality of the models and the feasibility of the optimization algorithm.

In this paper, we focus on new methods to deal with multiple attribute group decision-making (MAGDM) problems and a new comparison law of interval-valued dual hesitant fuzzy elements (IVDHFEs). More explicitly, the interval-valued dual hesitant fuzzy 2nd-order central polymerization degree (IVDHFCP2) function is introduced, for the case that score values of different IVDHFEs are identical. This function can further compare different IVDHFEs. Then, we develop a series of interval-valued dual hesitant fuzzy power Heronian aggregation operators, i.e., the interval-valued dual hesitant fuzzy power Heronian mean (IVDHFPHM) operator, the interval-valued dual hesitant fuzzy power geometric Heronian mean (IVDHFPGHM) operator, and their weighted forms. Some desirable properties and their special cases are discussed. These proposed operators can simultaneously reflect the interrelationship of aggregated arguments and reduce the influence of unreasonable evaluation values. Finally, two approaches for interval-valued dual hesitant fuzzy MAGDM with known or unknown weight information are presented. An illustrative example and comparative studies are given to verify the advantages of our methods. A sensitivity analysis of the decision results is analyzed with different parameters.

We investigate and propose two new Bonferroni means, that is, the optimized weighted BM (OWBM) and the generalized optimized weighted BM (GOWBM), whose characteristics are to reflect the preference and interrelationship of the aggregated arguments and can satisfy the basic properties of the aggregation techniques simultaneously. Further, we propose the interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy optimized weighted Bonferroni mean (IIFOWBM) and the generalized interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy optimized weighted Bonferroni mean (GIIFOWBM) and detailed study of their desirable properties such as idempotency, monotonicity, transformation, and boundary. Finally, based on IIFOWBM and GIIFOWBM, we give an approach to group decision making under the interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy environment and utilize a practical case involving the assessment of a set of agroecological regions in Hubei Province, China, to illustrate the developed methods.
