چکیده

Environmental problems are recognized as one of the most serious issues in these last few decades. Green supply chain management and sustainable supply chain management have gained increasing attention within both academia and industry. Previous studies proposed a closed-loop supply chain model and a negotiation protocol for increasing the amount of reused products and reducing waste products. This study improves the negotiation protocol for further increasing the reused products and reducing the waste. A remanufacturer can economically collect a lot of used products by negotiating with a client in consideration of both the required prices from the remanufacture and the possible times to dispose of the used products from the client. A prototype of a simulation system for a closed-loop supply chain is developed in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the new negotiation protocol. Experimental results show that the new protocol can reuse more products than the previous one.

Deterministic and Metaheuristic Solutions for Closed-loop Supply Chains with Continuous Price Decrease

In a global economy, an efficient supply chain as a main core competency empowers enterprises to provide products or services at the right time in the right quantity, at a low cost. This paper is to plan a single product, multi-echelon, multi-period closed loop supply chain for high-tech products (which have continuous price decrease). Ultimately, considering components rated to procurement, pr...

A new mathematical model for the closed-loop supply chains considering pricing for product, a fleet of heterogeneous vehicles, and inventory costs

Mathematical models have been used in many areas of supply chain management. In this paper, we present a mixed-integer non-linear programing (MINLP) model to solve a multi-period, closed-loop supply chains (CLSCs) with two echelons consist of producers and customers. In order to satisfy the demands, the producers are be able to order for materials in the beginning of each period for one or more...

Applying a CVaR Measure for a Stochastic Competitive Closed-Loop Supply Chain Network under Disruption

This paper addresses a closed-loop supply chain network design problem, in which two different supply chains compete on retail prices by defining a price-dependent demand function. So, the model is formulated in a bi-level stochastic form to demonstrate the Stackelberg competition and associated uncertainties more precisely. Moreover, it is capable of considering random disruptions in the leade...
