Abstract

It is recognized that handling uncertainty is essential to obtain more reliable results in modeling and computer simulation. This paper aims to discuss the logistic equation subject to fuzzy uncertainties in the initial conditions and parameters. Here we consider the population density at a specific time as a fuzzy variable in which the possibility distribution function depends on the possibility distribution functions of the environmental carrying capacity, the initial population density and the intrinsic growth rate. We provide closed-form expressions for the expected value of the fuzzy variables population density and for the time of maximum growth. We also perform some numerical simulations to illustrate our main results.
