The study of a fuzzy set theory for the selection of an optimum coal transportation system from pit to the power plant

In this paper, we purpose a fuzzy multiple attribute decision making for the selection of an optimal transportation system to a power station to be established in an open pit coal mine located Can, west of Turkey. So far, various types of formulations or solutions methods have been proposed with transportation systems, but most of them exclusively considered linear functions as objective functions. Real world study is decision making under subjective constraints of different importance, after using uncertain data (linguistic variables), where compromises between competing criteria are allowed. The authors have explained in theory and by detailed example a new combination of fuzzy set of transportation systems.
