Filter allocation and replacement strategies in fluid power system under uncertainty: a fuzzy robust nonlinear programming approach

A fuzzy robust nonlinear programming model is developed for the assessment of filter allocation and replacement strategies in hydraulic systems under uncertainty. It integrates the methods of fuzzy mathematic programming (FMP) and robust programming (RP) within the mixed integer nonlinear programming framework, and can facilitate dynamic analysis and optimization of filters allocation and replacement planning where the uncertainties are …
