Abstract
This article puts forward a new one point approach to optimize trapezoidal fuzzy transportation problem. It proposes the method having point wise breakup of the trapezoidal number in such a way, that fuzzy transportation problem is converted into four crisp transportation problems. The method is equipped with minimum of supply and demand approach. In the end, the solutions are combined to construct the optimal solution. Modified distribution is applied on each crisp problem to develop optimal solution. The scheme presented is compared with competitive methods available in literature and it is found to be in good coordination with these. The scheme is equally good to be applied on unbalanced problems. Two numerical problems are considered to test the performance of the proposed approach.
