In this paper, we introduce a class of stochastic programming problem with fixed charge recourse in which a fixed cost is imposed if the value of the continuous recourse variable is strictly positive. The algorithm of a branch-and-cut method to solve the problem is developed by using the property of the expected recourse function. Then, the problem is applied to a power generating system. The n...

Natural disasters and crisis are inevitable and each year impose destructive effects on human as injuries and damage to property. In natural  disasters and after the outbreak of the crisis, demand for logistical goods and services increase. Effective distribution of emergency aid could have a significant role in minimizing the damage and fatal accident. In this study, a three-level relief chain...
