In this paper, we study a numerical method for hybrid fuzzy differential equations (HFDEs) by an application of the variational iteration method (VIM). We state a convergence result and give numerical examples to illustrate the theory. Numerical results are presented for some problems to demonstrate the usefulness and accuracy of this approach. The method is easy to apply and produces very accurate numerical results.

This paper investigates system of differential equations with fuzzy parameters and fuzzy initial condition for numerical solution. Here,the function, can be nonlinear or it can be linear with some or all matrices entries as fuzzy number. In this paper, we propose the numerical technique which is based on approximation of Hukuhara difference, for both kind of dynamical systems (linear and nonlinear). In dynamical system, uncertainty of possibilistic type can be realized efficiently using fuzzy parameters and such systems are mathematical models for various application in varied domains. For such systems, we get the scheme for existence of solution and its convergence. Lastly, illustrative examples are solved by using proposed scheme and compared with crisp solution.

... In such situations, FDEs are common tools if the underlying structure is not probabilistic.

In this paper, a novel iterative method is proposed to obtain approximate-analytical solutions for the linear systems of first-order fuzzy differential equations (FDEs) with fuzzy constant coefficients (FCCs) while avoiding the complexities of eigen-value computations. A theorem for the convergence and the validity of the approach is also presented in detail. Numerical experiments and comparisons with exact solutions reveal that the proposed method is capable of generating accurate results.

This paper first presents a new solution to the fuzzy first-order initial value problem. Elementary properties of this new solution are given. We then compare various derivatives of fuzzy functions that have been presented in the literature followed by comparing the different solutions one may obtain to the fuzzy initial value problem using these derivatives. Examples are given, including linear and non-linear fuzzy first-order differential equations, where we find both our new solution and other solutions to the fuzzy initial value problem.

A fuzzy mapping from X to Y is a fuzzy set on X × Y. The concept is extended to fuzzy mappings of fuzzy sets on X to Y, fuzzy function and its inverse, fuzzy parametric functions, fuzzy observation, and control. Set theoretical relations are obtained for fuzzy mappings, fuzzy functions, and fuzzy parametric functions. It is shown that under certain conditions a precise control goal can be attained with fuzzy observation and control as long as the observations become sufficiently precise when the goal is approached.

Using the embedding method, numerical procedures for solving fuzzy differential equations (FDEs) and fuzzy integral equations (FIEs) with arbitrary kernels have been investigated. Sufficient conditions for convergence of the proposed algorithms are given and their applicability is illustrated with examples. This work and its conclusions may narrow the gap between the theoretical research on FDEs and FIEs and the practical applications already existing in the design of various fuzzy dynamical systems.

The initial value problem x′(t) = f(t,x(t)), x(0)= x0, with fuzzy initial value and with deterministic or fuzzy function f is considered. Two different approaches, viz. the extension principle and the use of extremal solutions of deterministic initial value problems, are applied. Generalizations to fuzzy integral equations and fuzzy functional differential equations are indicated.

The classical Peano theorem states that in finite dimensional spaces the Cauchy problem x ' (t)=f(t,x(t)), x(t 0 )=x 0 , has a solution provided f is continuous. In addition, Godunov has shown that each Banach space in which the Peano theorem holds true is finite dimensional. For differential inclusions, the existence of a solution to the Cauchy problem is also guaranteed under various assumptions on the right-hand side. In this paper, we study the Cauchy problem for fuzzy differential equations. To be more specific, let U be a subspace of normal, convex, upper semicontinuous, compactly supported fuzzy sets defined in ℝ n and assume that f:[t 0 ,t 0 +a]×U→U is continuous. We show that the Cauchy problem has a solution if and only if U is locally compact.

The validity of the classical Peano theorem is noted for differential equations on the metric space (E(n), d(p)) of normal fuzzy convex sets in R(n), where d(p) is the p-th mean of the Hausdorff distances between corresponding level sets. This contrasts with differential equations on the space (E(n), D) where D is the max metric, which is not locally compact so more than just continuity is required to ensure the existence of solutions. Some additional properties, differing from that given by Kaleva, are mentioned.

In the present note it is shown that the examples presented in a recent paper by T. Allahviranloo et al. [Inf. Sci. 177, No. 7, 1633–1647 (2007; Zbl 1183.65090)], are incorrect. Namely, the “exact solutions” proposed by the authors are not solutions of the given fuzzy differential equations (FDEs). The correct exact solutions are also presented here, together with some results for characterizing solutions of FDEs under Hukuhara differentiability by an equivalent system of ODEs. In this way a new direction for the numerical solutions of FDEs is proposed.

In this paper three numerical methods to solve ''The fuzzy ordinary differential equations'' are discussed. These methods are Adams-Bashforth, Adams-Moulton and predictor-corrector. Predictor-corrector is obtained by combining Adams-Bashforth and Adams-Moulton methods. Convergence and stability of the proposed methods are also proved in detail. In addition, these methods are illustrated by solving two fuzzy Cauchy problems.

The extension of algebraic and analytical concepts to the theory of fuzzy sets appears to play a central role in the investigation of nondeterministic techniques. Since an exact description of any real physical situation is virtually impossbile, it is necessary to develop schemes which deal analytically with decision processes in an imprecise environment. In this paper we are concerned with formulating such a framework and with introducing a bibliography of 570 items, all classified with fuzzy set theory and its applications, which will help the readers to come to grips with the literature explosion on the subjects of fuzzy sets, fuzzy algebra, fuzzy statistics, and closely related applications.
