Newly, the rates of energy and material consumption to augment industrial production are substantially high, thus environmentally sustainable development has emerged as main issue either developed or developing countries. A novel approach supply chain management is proposed maintain economic growth along with friendly concerns for design network. In this paper, a new green been suggested financ...

Sourcing resilience has become a primary concern in most closed-loop supply chains (CLSC). Companies face the option of sourcing their raw materials from suppliers or recycling centers though latter can be disrupted sometimes. In this study, multi-stage, stochastic programming (MSSP) model is developed to analyze how company proactively employ strategies along with pricing policies enhance CLSC...

From the past, honey has been known as a healthy product for human life. Iran has a suitable climate for beekeeping and is among the high-ranked countries in honey production. However, due to failure to comply with quality issues, export of honey from Iran is associated with many problems. According to this issue, this paper presents a robust possibilistic optimization network design model for ...

This paper aims to design a mathematical model for sustainable closed-loop supply chains during the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. The proposed multi-objective minimizes total cost, carbon emission, and infection risk of network also maximizes social benefits. Some practical conditions such as stochastic demands, supplier selection, facility disruptions are considered in model. is transformed...

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 design of closed-loop supply chain networks has attracted more attention in recent years according to business and environmental factors. The significance of accounting for uncertainty and risk in such networks spurs an interest to develop appropriate decision making tools to cope with uncertain and imprecise parameters in closed-loop supply chain network design problems. This paper propose...

The aim of this paper is to propose a robust reliable bi-objective supply chain network design (SCND) model that is capable of controlling different kinds of uncertainties, concurrently. In this regard, stochastic bi-level scenario based programming approach which is used to model various scenarios related to strike of disruptions. The well-known method helps to overcome adverse effects of disr...

In this work the design and planning of a Closed-Loop Supply Chain (CLSC) under uncertain conditions is considered and a two-stage scenario-based modeling approach is proposed in order to deal with this multi-product, multi-period problem. The network design and tactical plan are simultaneously optimized in a given time horizon, comprehending the raw material acquisition and the processing, sto...
