Abstract Carbon capture and storage is considered of fundamental importance to achieve a remarkable decarbonisation steel, cement refining sectors. To operate carbon at scale address its inherent complexity, mathematical programming techniques can be exploited optimise such systems. This contribution proposes Europe-wide, spatially-explicit, time-dependent, chains optimisation, based on mixed i...

in this paper, the competition between two supply chains and their elements is studied. each chain consisted of a manufacturer and a distributor and the two chains compete in a market with single type of customer sensitive to price and delivery time. therefore, this is a two-supply chain game and during the competition between two supply chains, elements of each supply chain (manufacturer and/o...

The majority of sustainability assessments of the bio based industries are primarily focused on the environmental and economic aspects, while social impacts are rarely considered. While overlooking social dimension can have a serious harmful impact across supply chains. To address this issue, this study proposes a modified systemic approach for a social sustainability impact assessment of the te...

This paper discusses a problem in which  decentralized supply chains enter the market simultaneously with no existing rival chains, shape the supply chains’ networks, and set wholesale and retail prices in a noncooperative manner. All the chains produce either identical or highly substitutable products. Customer demand is elastic and price-dependent. A three-step algorithm is proposed to solve ...

The cell phone industry is growing at a vertiginous pace. It has a life-changing impact on individuals and businesses in developing countries, where it can make up for the lack of infrastructure. In Latin America, the cell phone supply chain faces challenges specific to developing countries. Success in these environments requires creative solutions and adaptable supply chains. Ecuador is no exc...
