Abstract

In order to draw comparison in largely used fuzzy numbers, ranking of fuzzy numbers becomes important. In this paper, a new method for ranking Asymmetric Pentagonal Fuzzy Numbers(APFN) is proposed. In this method, the pentagonal fuzzy numbers are scored by obtaining their centers of gravity using left and right areas associated with them. Further, we propose a direct technique for solving fuzzy Transshipment Problem(TsP) in which costs are represented as Asymmetric Pentagonal Fuzzy Numbers. The solution so obtained is fuzzy optimal solution. The validity of proposed methodology is illustrated through a numerical example.
