design of a logistics network in proper way provides a proper platform for efficient and effective supply chain management. this paper studies a multi-period, multi echelon and multi-product integrated forward-reverse logistics network under uncertainty. first, an efficient complex mixed-integer linear programming (milp) model by considering some real-world assumptions is developed for the inte...

This research work develops a decision support model for a network design problem concerning a spare parts closed loop supply chain. It involves the formulation of an optimization model that takes on a mid to long-term planning perspective and covers decisions that have lasting and binding impact on organizational performance. These decisions include investment, location assignment, and invento...

With regard to environmental pressures and economic benefits, some original construction equipment manufacturers, have focused on collecting recovering machinery at the end of their life. The present study aimed focus Sustainable closed-loop supply chain network optimization for recovering. To this purpose, different recovery options such as remanufacturing, recycli...

Many companies face challenges in reducing their supply chain costs while increasing sustainability and customer service levels. A comprehensive framework for a sustainable closed-loop (CLSC) network is practical solution to these challenges. Hence, the first time, this study considers an integrated multi-objective mixed-integer linear programming (MOMILP) model design CLSC networks with cross-...

Recently, with the environmental crisis, Green supply chain management (or GSCM), and in particular closed loop supply chain model, has received considerable attention by researchers. Closed loop supply chain model aims at reduction of waste and generating profit for enterprises through integrating forward and reverse logistics. Unfortunately, there is limited research on general models for clo...
