Abstract

In this paper, a new general procedure is proposed to construct the membership and non-membership functions of the system reliability using time-dependent intuitionistic uncertain number. Using the proposed approach, membership and non-membership functions of reliability of series and parallel systems are constructed. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the proposed approach.
