Triangular cubic linguistic uncertain fuzzy topsis method and application to group decision making

In this paper, we define the idea of cubic linguistic uncertain fuzzy numbers. We define the idea of triangular cubic linguistic uncertain fuzzy number. We discuss some basic operational laws of triangular cubic linguistic uncertain fuzzy number and hamming distance of TCLUFNs. We introduce the new concept of triangular cubic linguistic uncertain fuzzy TOPSIS method. Furthermore, we extend the classical triangular cubic linguistic uncertain fuzzy TOPSIS method to solve the MCDM method based on triangular cubic linguistic uncertain fuzzy TOPSIS method. The new ranking method for TCLUFNs is used to rank the alternatives. Finally, an illustrative example is given to verify and demonstrate the practicality and effectiveness of the proposed method.
