Abstract
Fuzzy set theory has been used to model systems that are hard to define precisely. As a methodology, fuzzy set theory incorporates imprecision and subjectivity into the model formulation and solution process. Fuzzy set theory represents an attractive tool to aid research in production management when the dynamics of the production environment limit the specification of model objectives, constraints and the precise measurement of model parameters. This paper provides a survey of the application of fuzzy set theory in production management research. The literature review that we compiled consists of 73 journal articles and nine books. A classification scheme for fuzzy applications in production management research is defined. We also identify selected bibliographies on fuzzy sets and applications.

Measuring Loss-Based Process Capability Index and Its Generation with Fuzzy Numbers

TL;DR: Fuzzification of process capability index and its generation is investigated, showing that fuzzy was more sensitive compared with and was increased while the target departs, and variation of fuzzy and consequently its fuzziness were increased.

An aggregate production planning model for paint industry in fuzzy environment

TL;DR: The model provides a systematic framework that help decisionmaking to solve APP problems under fuzzy environment, and help decision maker (DM) to modify the the data until a set of satisfactory solution is obtain.
