The advantages of the proposed method over the existing methods are discussed. To illustrate the proposed method, an existing fuzzy solid transportation problem is solved. Also, to show the application of the proposed method in real life problems an existing real life fuzzy solid transportation problem is solved by the proposed method. ? 2014 Indian Academy of Sciences.en-USEngineeringTechnologyLR flat fuzzy numbersRanking functionsReal-life problemsTransportation problemUncertain environmentsFuzzy setsArticlehttps://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2Fs12046-013-0207-4
