Real Life Applications of Multiple Criteria Decision Making Techniques in Fuzzy Domain

Abstract

In this study, a fuzzy EOQ model has been developed for deteriorating product with time-dependent deterioration and fixed expiration date under partial trade credit policy, considering unfaithfulness nature of the base customers. This model is a mixed-integer profit maximization problem designed in a crisp and imprecise (fuzzy) environment for the uncertainty of different costs and banking interest involving the inventory control system. The decision variables and input parameters affect in the model are fuzzified. This research investigates about optimal replenishing time and selling price to maximize the profit. Also, a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm has been utilized to obtain the best suitable marketing plan for the decision-maker. Numerous numerical examples are also cited.
