Abstract
En 中文
This study investigates a novel interval linear programming based on probabilistic dominance. Firstly, the definition of interval linear programming is briefly reviewed. Then a new interval linear programming model is presented based on probabilistic domi-nance. The probabilistic dominance index treats the intervals as uniformly distributed variables and the interval inequality relation is further defined by probability. To deal with non-linearity in probabilistic dominance index, sequential quadratic programming is used to solve the problem and the performance measure approach is proposed to overcome the convergence difficulties. The deter-mination and sensitivity analysis of the target performance measure are discussed to assess the sequential quadratic programming algorithm. Meanwhile, the extension of the proposed method to fuzzy interval linear programming is discussed. Furthermore, the proposed method is applied to the design of the plane truss structure with interval parameters. Finally, the effectiveness and ratio-nality of the developed method are demonstrated by two mathematical examples and one interval parametric plane truss structure optimization example.(c) 2021 Elsevier B.V.
