چکیده

in many practical distribution networks, managers face significant uncertainties in demand, local price of building facilities, transportation cost, and macro and microeconomic parameters. this paper addresses design of distribution networks in a supply chain system which optimizes the performance of distribution networks subject to required service level. this service level, which is considered for each arbitrary request arriving at a distribution center (facility), has a (pre-specified) small probability of being lost. in this mathematical model, customer’s demand is stochastic that follows uniform distribution. in this model, inter-depot transportation (transportation between distributions centers (dcs)), capacities of facilities, and coverage radius restrictions are considered. for this restriction, each dc cannot service all customers. the aim of this model is to select and optimize location of plants and dcs. also, the best flow of products between dcs and from plants to dcs and from dcs to customers will be determined. the paper presents a mixed integer programming model and proposed an exact solution procedure in regard to benders’ decomposition method.

A Benders Decomposition Method to Solve an Integrated Logistics Network Designing Problem with Multiple Capacities

In this paper, a new model is proposed for the integrated logistics network designing problem. In many research papers in this area, it is assumed that there is only one option for the capacity of each facility in the network. However, this is not a realistic assumption because generally there may be many possible options for the capacity of the facility that is being established. Usually the c...

A Hybrid Solution Approach Based on Benders Decomposition and Meta-Heuristics to Solve Supply Chain Network Design Problem

Supply Chain Network Design (SCND) is a strategic supply chain management problem that determines its configuration. This mainly focuses on the facilities location, capacity sizing, technology selection, supplier selection, transportation, allocation of production and distribution facilities to the market, and so on. Although the optimal solution of the SCND problem leads to a significant reduc...

A Benders\' Decomposition Based Solution Method for Solving User Equilibrium Problem: Deterministic and Stochastic Cases

The traffic assignment problem is one of the most important problems for analyzing and optimizing the transportation network to find optimal flows. This study presented a new formulation based on a generalized Benders' decomposition approach to solve its important part, i.e. user equilibrium problems, in deterministic and stochastic cases. The new approach decomposed the problem into a master p...
