M. K. Purushothkumar, Dr. M. Ananthanarayanan

Abstract: In this paper, we consider the fuzzy transportation problem (FTP) where cost, availability and demand of the product are represented Trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. We develop fuzzy version of Vogels Algorithm for finding fuzzy optimal solution of fuzzy transportation problem and Fuzzy transportation problem can be converted into a crisp valued Transportation problem using fuzzy ranking techniques.

Keywords: Fuzzy set, fuzzy transportation problem, trapezoidal fuzzy number, fuzzy ranking techniques
