Environmental Transportation Optimization using Modified Earth Mover's Distance Methodology

Abstract

The respective study reflects novel phenomenon with optimization for transportation issues within environmental, sciences using the “Intuitionistic Trapezoidal fuzzy number”s (ITFNs) and also an modified “Earth Mover's Distance” (EMD) ranks mechanism. Through capturing the uncertainty and also vagueness in the transportation demands and costs for ITFNs provide more accurate of a modelling framework. EMD enables the comparison and robust ranking of the ITFNs, facilitates informed productivity enhancement and decision-making of the transportation systems. The applications consisting: supply chain management”, waste management, sustainable logistics and emergency response, finally contributes towards an efficient and also environmentall friendly “supply chain management” (SCM) and logistics practices.
