Abstract:A fuzzy set is fully defined by its membership function (MF) and the design of the membership function is an integral part of the whole fuzzy system design. This work looked at using operating states in a chemical plant to identify the membership function parameters. There were three operating states discovered, namely, the not normal operating state (NNOS), the normal operating state (NOS) and the transition operating state (TOS). These states were used to design the MFs of the fuzzy variables with specific r… Show more
