Introduction
In this chapter we first look at finding solutions to
where \(\overline{X}\) is a triangular (shaped) fuzzy number in some interval I, f is a fuzzy function mapping fuzzy numbers into fuzzy numbers and \(\overline{Y}\) is also a triangular shaped fuzzy number. As an example of this problem we consider a fuzzy EOQ (economic order quantity) problem to solve. To generate approximate solutions we plan to employ our fuzzy Monte Carlo method.
