The present paper deals with the development of a fuzzy inventory model of deteriorating items
under power demand rate and inventory level dependent holding cost function. The deterioration
rate, demand rate, holding cost and unit cost are considered as trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. Both
the crisp model and fuzzy model are developed in this paper. The graded mean integration
method(GM) and signed distance method(SD) are used to defuzzify the total cost of the present
model. Both the models are illustrated by suitable numerical examples and a sensitivity analysis
for the optimal solution towards changes in the system parameters are discussed. Lastly a
graphical presentation is furnished to compare the total costs under the above two mentioned
methods in the fuzzy model.
Perishable Inventory Model Having Weibull Lifetime and Time Dependent DemandIOSR Journals
In this paper we develop and analyse an inventory model for deteriorating items with Weibull rate of decay and time dependent demand. Using the differential equations, the instantaneous state of inventory at time‘t’, the amount of deterioration etc. are derived. With suitable cost considerations the total cost function and profit rate function are also obtained by maximizing the profit rate function, the optimal ordering and pricing policies of the model are derived. The sensitivity of the model with respect to the parameters is discussed through numerical illustration. It is observed that the deteriorating parameters have a tremendous influence on the optimal selling price and ordering quantity.
Inventory Management Models with Variable Holding Cost and Salvage valueIOSR Journals
Inventory management models are developed for deteriorating items when the demand rate is
assumed to be linear function of time and the deterioration rate is proportional to time. The model is solved
when shortages are allowed. The salvage value is used for deteriorated items in the system. A numerical
example is taken to discuss the sensitivity of the models.
An Inventory Management System for Deteriorating Items with Ramp Type and Qua...ijsc
The present paper deals with an inventory management system with ramp type and quadratic demand rates. A constant deterioration rate is considered into the model. In the two types models, the optimum time and total cost are derived when demand is ramp type and quadratic. A structural comparative study is demonstrated here by illustrating the model with sensitivity analysis.
This paper analyzes the swap rates issued by the China Inter-bank Offered Rate(CHIBOR) and
selects the one-year FR007 daily data from January 1st, 2019 to June 30th, 2019 as a sample. To fit the data,
we conduct Monte Carlo simulation with several typical continuous short-term swap rate models such as the
Merton model, the Vasicek model, the CIR model, etc. These models contain both linear forms and nonlinear
forms and each has both drift terms and diffusion terms. After empirical analysis, we obtain the parameter
values in Euler-Maruyama scheme and relevant statistical characteristics of each model. The results show that
most of the short-term swap rate models can fit the swap rates and reflect the change of trend, while the CKLSO
model performs best.

Fuzzy Inventory Model of Deteriorating Items under Power Dependent Demand and Inventory Level Dependent Holding Cost Function
1. Fuzzy Inventory Model of Deteriorating Items under Power Dependent
Demand and Inventory Level Dependent Holding Cost Function
Dr. Biswaranjan Mandal
Associate Professor of Mathematics, Acharya Jagadish Chandra Bose College,
Abstract:
The present paper deals with the development of a fuzzy inventory model of deteriorating items
under power demand rate and inventory level dependent holding cost function. The deterioration
rate, demand rate, holding cost and unit cost are considered as trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. Both
the crisp model and fuzzy model are developed in this paper. The graded mean integration
method(GM) and signed distance method(SD) are used to defuzzify the total cost of the present
model. Both the models are illustrated by suitable numerical examples and a sensitivity analysis
for the optimal solution towards changes in the system parameters are discussed. Lastly a
graphical presentation is furnished to compare the total costs under the above two mentioned
methods in the fuzzy model.
Key Words: Inventory, deterioration, fuzzy, trapezoidal fuzzy numbers and defuzzify.
Subject classification: AMS Classification No. 90B05
1. Introduction:
In our daily life, deterioration is a common issue. The deterioration or decay is very low for
the items like steel, hardware, glassware where as food items, drugs, radioactive substances have
sufficient deterioration in nature, and so it is harmful for use. We are studying many research
papers where deterioration of items is assumed. In this field, many researchers like Ghare &
Schrader [1], Covert & Philip [2], Ghimai et al[3], Hwang et al[4], Rajoria [5] , Dr Biswaranjan
Mandal[6] are mentioned a few.
In inventory system, it is very common observation that many customers are influenced for
purchasing goods when a large pile of goods are stuck in shelf in a super market. So consumption
rate may vary with the stock level. In view of this, researchers like Levin [7], Datta & Pal[ 8],
Baker et al [9], Tripathi et al [10] are noteworthy.
One of the weakness of the inventory management theory which has a great application in
business sector is the unrealistic or uncertain assumptions of the different parameters. Bellan &
Zadeh [11] first developed the fuzzy set theory in decision making process. After that, many
researchers like Yao & Lee [12], Yao & Chiang [13] introduced fuzzy articles. More and more
progresses are observed regarding development of inventory models from crisp parameters to
fuzzy parameters. Vujosevic [14] and Hsieh et al [15] discussed the inventory models
considering fuzzy sense where ordering cost and holding cost are fuzzy in nature called
trapezoidal numbers. Many inventory models with major parameters as fuzzy are discussed by
Chen [16], Park [17], Kao & Hsu [18 ], Sujit [19 ], Zadeh[ 20] etc for defuzzifying the total
inventory cost.
In view of the above sort of situations and facts, we have studied an order level inventory system
having both crisp and fuzzy models. The constant deterioration rate and power demand rate with
inventory level dependent holding cost is assumed in the present model. Shortages are not

2. allowed. The certain and uncertain nature of variables are considered in the proposed model. The
trapezoidal type fuzzy number is used for representing fuzzy numbers. Both graded mean
integration method (GM) and signed distance method (SD) are used for defuzzification in the
present model. The solution procedure is illustrated considering suitable examples for both the
models. Sensitivity analysis of the optimal solution with respect to the changes in the different
parameters is discussed and lastly a graphical presentation is furnished to compare the total costs
under the above two mentioned methods in the fuzzy model.

4. Model development:
Let Q be the total amount of inventory purchased or produced at the beginning of each period
t=0 .During [0,T], the stock will be gradually depleted due to the effect of deterioration and
market demand, and ultimately falls to zero at t =T.

8. The optimal total cost *
( )
SD
TC T is obtained by putting the optimal value T in the equation
(4.2.2.2).
To illustrate the preceding inventory model, the following examples are considered for the two
inventory scenarios namely crisp model and fuzzy model.
Example 1: (Crisp Model):
The values of the parameters be as follows
A=1000 per order; = 500 units/year; = 0.01; = 0.02; c = $ 8 per unit; h = $ 10 per unit.
Solving the equation (4.1.9) with the help of computer using the above parameter values, we find
the following optimum outputs
*
T = 0.611 year; *
Q = 322.45 units and *
TC = $ 3256.15
It is also checked that this solution satisfies the sufficient condition for optimality.
Example 2: (Fuzzy Model):
Consider the fuzzy parameters are
A=1000 per order; = (400, 500, 600, 700); = (0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04) ; = (0.02, 0.04, 0.06,
0.08) ; c = (6, 8, 10, 12) ; h = (8, 10, 12, 14).
Solving the equations (4.2.1.3) and (4.2.2.3) with the help of computer using the above values
of fuzzy parameters, we find the following optimum outputs

6. Sensitivity Analysis and Discussion:
We now study the effects of changes in the system fuzzy parameters A, , , , c and h on
the optimum length of order cycle ( *
T ) and the optimal total cost ( *
TC ) in the present inventory
fuzzy model. The sensitivity analysis is performed by changing each of the parameters by – 50%,
– 20%, +20% and +50%, taking one parameter at a time and keeping remaining parameters
unchanged. The results are furnished in table A and table B.

Analyzing the results of table A and table B, the following observations may be made:
(i) The optimum average cost *
TC increase or decrease with the increase or decrease in
the values of the system parameters A. On the other hand *
TC increase or decrease
with the decrease or increase in the values of the system parameters , , , c and
h . The results obtained show that *
TC is very highly sensitive to changes in the value
of parameters A, and h ; and moderate sensitive towards changes of parameters
, and c .
From the above analysis, it is seen that A, and h are very sensitive parameters in the
sense that any error in the estimation of these parameters result in significant errors in the
optimal solution. Hence estimation of the parameters A, and h need adequate attention.

11. The above figure shows the comparison between the cycle time (T) and the total cost
(TC) under the Graded Mean Integration Method and Signed Distance Method. It is
observed that as the time (T) increases, the total cost decreases gradually up to a certain
cycle period, after that it increases gradually. So the minimum cost attains at point of
replenishment time, and it indicates that the proposed fuzzy model plays a significant and
realistic behaviour in the present inventory model.
8. Concluding Remarks:
In the present paper, deteriorating inventory model with power demand and stock-
dependent demand rate is developed. The holding cost is assumed as inventory
dependent. Both crisp and fuzzy models are developed. We defuzzify the fuzzy total cost
TC T with the help of two methods i) Graded Mean Integration Method and ii)
Signed Distance Method. Numerical examples in each model are given to illustrate the
models. Sensitivity analysis is furnished for the fuzzy model. Lastly graphical behaviour
is also discussed under the Graded Mean Integration Method and Signed Distance
Method. We may extend this model by assuming the demand as quadratic function of
time and shortages with fully or partially backlogged. No such weakness was found in
the present paper.
