- Abstract
The fundamental prerequisite of decision making is how to aggregate individual expert's preference information. For constructing various aggregation operators on intuitionistic fuzzy set, various kinds of t-norms and co-norms are the most significant tools. This work takes a closer look on various fuzzy triangular norms and uses them for the first time in an economic order quantity (EOQ) model. Traditional economic theory has a paradigm shift on objective factors affecting demand such as price and income. Recently, behavioural economics gives more weightage to psychological and social factors that affect our preferences and choices in markets differently. As per literature survey concern, this paper may indeed be the first to adopt the concept of the number of variations of a tourist's dependent demand in inventory management problems. Utilizing several triangular norms, we have characterized Attanassov (standard) and non-Attanassov's (non-standard) feasible region. A case study has been performed for numerical illustration and model validation. A solution algorithm, has also been developed which proves Attanassov's solution space is quite inferior to non-Attanassov's domain. Finally, sensitivity analysis and graphical illustrations are also provided to justify the model., Competing Interests: Conflict of interestThe authors declare that they have no conflict of interest regarding the publication of this article., (© The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2022.)
