in recent years, the issue of energy consumption modeling techniques in the building sector has been widely considered by researchers and managers. researches indicate that energy consumption in residential sector is one of the main parts of the total consumption. moreover, the urban residence is supposed as a significant consumer of energy in every country and therefore a focus for energy cons...

This paper presents a discounted cash-flow approach to an inventory model for deteriorating items with the two-parameter Weibull distribution. According to our proposed model, two shortages are considered: back-orders and lost-sales, in which the back-order rate is a varying function of the time when the shortage happens. In general, the demand rate is a linear function of the selling price...

in this paper, a supplier-retailer transportation system is investigated as a two-echelon environment. there is a single location in each echelon; the unique supplier at the first echelon has to replenish the retailer's warehouse at the second echelon. by the way, the shortage situation should be avoided. for this situation, a model is provided based on the traditional eoq model. the inven...

nowadays, it’s very usual to use these models in almost all sciences. use of these models has provided quick, appropriate and economic answers to many questions. modeling is developing in different fields of agriculture, including irrigation and drainage. field tests are useful to determine and analyze the different irrigation management but there are significant limitations. the most important...

Logistics planning in disaster response phase involves dispatching commodities such as medical materials, personnel, food, etc. to affected areas as soon as possible to accelerate the relief operations. Since transportation vehicles in disaster situations can be considered as scarce resources, thus, the efficient usage of them is substantially important. In this study, we provide a dynamic vehi...

This paper develops a single-vendor single-retailer supply chain for multi-product. The proposed model is based on Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) approach and vendor uses the retailer's data for better decision making. Number of orders and available capital are the constraints of the model. In this system, shortages are backordered; therefore, the vendor’s warehouse capacity is another limitati...

Cross docking is a logistics strategy that strives to reduce inventory holding costs, shipping costs, and delays in delivering the products. In this research, an optimization model is presented for split loading and unloading products by suppliers and customers, vehicle routing with fuzzy possibilistic time window constraints among them, assignment of vehicles to cross dock, consolidation and i...
