Abstract EN
This study investigates a multiowner maximum-flow network problem, which suffers from risky events.
Uncertain conditions effect on proper estimation and ignoring them may mislead decision makers by overestimation.
A key question is how self-governing owners in the network can cooperate with each other to maintain a reliable flow.
Hence, the question is answered by providing a mathematical programming model based on applying the triangular reliability function in the decentralized networks.
The proposed method concentrates on multiowner networks which suffer from risky time, cost, and capacity parameters for each network’s arcs.
Some cooperative game methods such as τ -value, Shapley, and core center are presented to fairly distribute extra profit of cooperation.
A numerical example including sensitivity analysis and the results of comparisons are presented.
Indeed, the proposed method provides more reality in decision-making for risky systems, hence leading to significant profits in terms of real cost estimation when compared with unforeseen effects.
