Abstract

This paper proposes a linguistic fuzzy method to evaluate the reliability of emergency logistics system based on incomplete weight information. The proposed methodology involves two mechanisms: (1). Establish the fuzzy comment set about sub-criteria and criteria by linguistics information; (2). Compute the aggregated ratings of the criteria and the emergency logistics system reliability of emergency logistics alternative using the linguistic weighted averaging. Empirical results are given to verify the practicality and effectiveness of the proposed approach.
