This paper studies supply chain coordination in a decentralized supply chain which consists of a distributor, a manufacturer, and an OEM. The distributor meets price-sensitive random demand of a product with a short life cycle. The manufacturer, having limited capacity, receives the order from the distributor; when the distributor's order exceeds the manufacturer's capacity, the manufacturer ou...

Fashion supply chain members now search for trade-offs between sustainable investment and the related incentives, such as savings on environmental taxes and gains in incremental demands. To evaluate the economic and environmental performance of sustainable investment from a power perspective, we develop an analytical model to study a two-echelon sustainable supply chain consisting of one retail...

remanufacturing is an industrial process that makes used products reusable. remanufacturing is a way to establish a closed-loop supply chain. one of the important aspects in both reverse logistics and remanufacturing is pricing of returned and remanufactured products (called cores) that it has been noticed in this paper. in addition, in this paper the researchers have tried to present a mathema...

In a competitive market, customer decision is made to maximize his utility. It can be assumed that risk of losing a supply chain’s customer can be defined based on products utility from customer point of view. This paper takes account of product price and service level as competition criteria. The proposed model is based on non-cooperative game theory, for one-manufacturer and one-retailer supp...

This paper develops a model for the closed-loop supply chain network design with disruption risk. By considering supply disruption, two factors including extra inventory and lateral transshipment are used as resilience strategies. The main purpose is to reduce the supply chain costs due to the location decisions, quantity of products between different levels and lost sale. Disruption in a suppl...

As sustainable development becomes an important goal for all industries, the study of closed-loop supply chains has gradually become a priority. Most previous studies on are based simple and single market conditions, which cannot analyze real situation well. In this paper, two common behavioral preferences in market, overconfidence competitive preference, incorporated into to investigate how re...

this paper aims to evaluate inventory cost of a two-echelon serial supply chain system under vendor managed inventory program with stochastic demand, and examine the effect of environmental factors on the cost of overall system. for this purpose, we consider a two-echelon serial supply chain with a manufacturer and a retailer. under vendor managed inventory program, the decision on inventory le...

This paper investigates the coordination mechanism for a supply chain with one manufacturer and two competing retailers when the demands are disrupted. This differs from conventional supply chain coordination models under a static case. We will consider different scenarios of the problem: the production deviation cost may be either incurred to the manufacturer or to the retailers; the supply ch...

This article considers a decentralized supply chain in which a single manufacturer is selling a perishable product to a single retailer facing uncertain demand. It differs from traditional supply chain contract models in two ways. First, while traditional supply chain models are based on risk neutrality, this article takes the viewpoint of behavioral principal–agency theory and assumes the manu...
