The Use Of Linear Membership Function In Transportation Problem In “getex – Spa” Unit Of Maghnia

Abstract

In this paper, we try to apply the fuzzy goal programming model to solve the problem of transportation and distribution in order to deliver the products within the specified time and with lower cost. This is done using linear membership functions which depend on fuzzy set theory due to the ambiguity which characterizes the operating conditions of the transport network from storage depots to reception centers. We note that the unit manager was not able to determine the cost and delivery time from one point to another, but rather presented them as intervals only. The same goes for the quantities supplied and demanded. Using the fuzzy goal programming model allowed us to develop a transportation plan that allows us to accurately determine the delivery time, total cost and quantities to be transported from storage warehouses to order centers at using the LINGO program.
