Fuzzy Transportation Problem

In this paper, a new approach is introduced to solve transportation problem with type-2-fuzzy variables. In most of the real-life situations, the available data do not happen to be crisp in nature. It gives rise to the fuzzy transportation problem (FTP). This proposed approach concentrates on the problem when the vertical slices of type-2-fuzzy sets (T2FSs) are trapezoidal fuzzy numbers (TFNs). The original problem reduces to three different linear programming problems (LPPs) which are solved using the simplex algorithm. Then the effectiveness of this paper is discussed with numerical example. In conclusion, the significance of the paper and the scope of future study are discussed.

Fuzzy Transportation Problem

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.

The authors focused goal programming technique for solving type-2 duality fuzzy fractional transportation problem by using interval-valued triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers. The proposed method solves three types of models in which variables are taken as type-2 fuzzy variables which have spring up to the fuzzy fractional transportation problem. In these models, duality is applied and a particular type of non-linear membership functions are used to resolve duality fractional transportation problem including fuzzy parameters. A numerical example for examining the performance of the proposed model is envisaged here.

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.

Transportation problem (TP) is a special type of linear programming problem (LPP) where the objective is to minimize the cost of distributing a product from several sources (or origins) to some destinations. This paper addresses a transportation problem in which the costs, supplies, and demands are represented as heptagonal fuzzy numbers. After converting the problem into the corresponding crisp TP using the ranking method, a goal programming (GP) approach is applied for obtaining the optimal solution. The advantage of GP for the decision-maker is easy to explain and implement in real life transportation. The stability set of the first kind corresponding to the optimal solution is determined. A numerical example is given to highlight the solution approach.

Fuzzy Transportation Problem

The present paper attempts to obtain the optimal solution for the fuzzy transportation problem with mixed constraints. In this paper, authors have proposed a new innovative approach for obtaining the optimal solution of mixed constraint fuzzy transportation problem. The method is illustrated using a numerical example and the logical steps are highlighted using a simple flowchart. As maximum transportation problems in real life have mixed constraints and these problems cannot be truly solved using general methods, so the proposed method can be applied for solving such mixed constraint fuzzy transportation problems to obtain the best optimal solutions.

Fuzzy Transportation Problem

In real-life decisions, usually we happen to suffer through different states of uncertainties. In order to counter these uncertainties, in this paper, the author formulated a transportation problem in which costs are triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers, supplies and demands are crisp numbers. In this paper, a simple method for solving type-2 intuitionistic fuzzy transportation problem (type-2 IFTP) is proposed and optimal solution is obtained without using intuitionistic fuzzy modified distribution method and intuitionistic fuzzy zero point method. So, the proposed method gives the optimal solution directly. The solution procedure is illustrated with the help of three real life numerical examples. Defect of existing results proposed by Singh and Yadav (2016a) is discussed. Validity of Pandian's (2014) method is reviewed. Finally, the comparative study, results and discussion are given.
