A multistage fuzzy-stochastic programming model for supporting sustainable water-resources allocation and management

In this study, a multistage fuzzy-stochastic programming (MFSP) model is developed for tackling uncertainties presented as fuzzy sets and probability distributions. A vertex analysis approach is proposed for solving multiple fuzzy sets in the MFSP model. Solutions under a set of α-cut levels can be generated by solving a series of deterministic submodels. The developed method is applied to the planning of a case study for water-resources …
