Modeling and optimization of multi objective non-linear programming problem in intuitionistic fuzzy environment

摘要

In dealing with real world practical optimization problems, a decision maker usually faces a state of uncertainty as well as hesitation, due to various unpredictable factors. Sometimes it is necessary to optimize several non-linear and conflicting objectives simultaneously. To deal with the uncertain parameters which arise in such situations, intuitionistic fuzzy numbers are utilized. We formulate a multiobjective non-linear programming problem in intuitionistic fuzzy environment. We propose a linear ranking function and utilize it to convert the intuitionistic fuzzy model into a crisp model. After converting the problem into equivalent crisp problem, we propose a non-linear membership function and develop various approaches for solving it by using different operators and fuzzy programming technique. We apply our methodologies for justification to a numerical problem in manufacturing systems.
