Truss Design Optimization with Imprecise Load and Stress in Intuitionistic Fuzzy Environment

Mridula Sarkar, Tapan Kumar Roy · Journal of Ultra Scientist of Physical Sciences Section B · 2017

In this paper, we have introduced a intuitionistic fuzzy mathematical programming with intuitionistic fuzzy number as co-efficient of objectives. Real world engineering problems are usually designed with imprecise parameter by the presence of many conflicting objectives. In this paper we develop an approach to solve multi-objective structural design using probabilistic operator. Here total integral values of triangular intuitionistic fuzzy number,and it has been used for imprecise applied load and material density in the test problem. In this paper we have considered a multi objective structural optimization model with weight and deflection as objectives and stress as constraint function. Here design variables are considered as cross sectional area of bars. This classical truss design example is presented here in to demonstrate the significance of our proposed optimization approach. Numerical example is given here to illustrate this structural model through this approximation method.
