In this paper, a bi-objective mixed-integer linear optimization model for Closed-loop Supply Chain Network Design Problem (CLSCND) is developed. The proposed model includes both the forward and reverse directions and includes different types of facilities, namely, manufacturing/remanufacturing centers, warehouses, and disassembly centers. The first objective function tried to minimize the total...

The development of optimization and mathematical models for closed loop supply chain (CLSC) design has attracted considerable interest over the past decades. However, the uncertainties that are inherent in the network design and the complex interactions among various uncertain parameters are challenging the capabilities of the developed tools. The aim of this paper, therefore, is to propose a n...

At the strategic level, closed-loop supply chain (CLSC) management involves long-term decisions regarding the location and capacity allocation of forward/reverse logistics facilities, the assignment of products to facilities, and the distribution of products between facilities and their end users or suppliers. Both demand and return handling must be taken into account, and the overall problem b...

The main feature of sustainable supply Chain Management is reuse end life (EOL) products to reduce the environmental pollution. This paper considers consignment stock (CS) policy for a closed-loop chain (CLSC). To achieve economic goal, this study presents multi-echelon with single manufacturer, retailer and third-party service provider. objective optimize three-level CLSC under Stackelberg gam...

To what extent should one trust a statement that program is free of Trojan horses? Perhaps it more important to the people who wrote software. . You can’t code you did not totally create yourself.

Due to increasing environmental awareness, companies have started embracing the green supply chain concept reduce waste of resources. Based on this increased an integrated closed-loop has been developed, which integrates forward and reverse chain. The follows same path as in direction recycle used products. uncertain quality products, not all products can be selected for recycling reproduction,...
