Stock Pre-positioning Model with Unsatisfied Relief Demand Constraint to Support Emergency Response

چکیده
Stock prepositioning is one of the most important issues in preparedness stage of emergency logistics response. In a previous research, a stock prepositioning model to support an emergency disaster relief response in the event of earthquake has been proposed. Since the results contained zero proportion of some type of item, which is not allowed in a real system, an improvement of the model is needed. Hence, in this paper we focus on how to prevent the result of zero proportion of a single item type stored in distribution centers, which is the proportion of relief demand satisfied of disaster areas. We propose a new model by adding new variable of proportion of unsatisfied relief demand. Thus, we apply this model to a real case with 33 disaster areas and 16 distribution centers in Indonesia. Finally, the sensitivity analysis is performed to show the effect of different upper bound of the proportion of unsatisfied relief demand.

Designing an integrated relief pre-positioning network with perishable commodities
In this paper, a bi-objective model is proposed for designing a pre-positioning network of pharmaceutical supplies considering their limited shelf-life. The presented model aims to consider both cost efficiency and responsiveness by minimization of total cost and the maximum amount of unmet demand under uncertainties in demand and supply sides’ data. Moreover, for effective distribution of reli...
متن کاملPre-positioning and dynamic operations planning in pre- and post-disaster phases with lateral transhipment under uncertainty and disruption
Humanitarian organizations pre-position relief items in pre-disaster and distribute them to the affected areas in post-disaster. Improper planning of emergency operations causes more deaths in post-disaster. In this paper, the problem of relief item pre-positioning and multi-period distribution planning is addressed considering lateral transhipment among distribution centres to improve the effi...
