Design the bi-objective pharmaceutical supply chain network under uncertainty and considering the production, delivery, and drug perishable times
Authors
Abstract:
In this paper, a bi-objective pharmaceutical supply chain network under uncertainty demand and transportation costs is modeled and developed. To control the uncertainty parameters, the robust optimization method is considering. The main objective of this paper determines the number and location of potential facilities such as drug manufacture centers and drug distribution centers by considering the minimizing the total costs and minimizing the maximum unsatisfied demand for distribution of drugs to demand zones. In this paper, production time, delivery, and drug perishable time is also considered in modeling. To solve the model, an example is designed and the multi-decision TH method is used. The results obtained the model shows this method is effective in finding the Pareto front at the right time. The results obtained the model shows this method is effective in finding the Pareto front at the right time.The results obtained the model shows this method is effective in finding the Pareto front at the right time.

Green Supply Chain Network Design under Multi-mode Production and Uncertainty
A multi-periodic, multi-echelon green supply chain network consisting of manufacturing plants, potential distribution centers, and customers is developed. The manufacturing plants can provide the products in three modes including production in regular time, production in over time, or by subcontracting. The problem has three objectives including minimization of the total costs of the green supp...
full textA possibilistic bi-objective model for a competitive supply chain network design under variable coverage
In this paper, the strategic planning of a supply chain under a static chain-to-chain competition on the plane is addressed. It is assumed that each retailer has a coverage area called the radius of influence. The demand of each demand zone is divided equally between the retailers which can cover that market. However, the demand of distant customers who are not in the retailers’ radius of influ...

This paper presents a robust supply chain network design considering capacity, supply and delivery distance limits under uncertain demand. It aims to form a systematic solution including facility location and capacity design, supply plan, production plan and delivery plan. The uncertainty of demand is described by means of scenario approach. Following a multiple criteria evaluation, the optimal...

In this paper, bi-level programming is proposed for designing a competitive supply chain network. A two-stage stochastic programming approach has been developed for a multi-product supply chain comprising a capacitated supplier, several distribution centers, retailers and some resellers in the market. The proposed model considers demand’s uncertainty and disruption in distribution centers and t...

Models that aim to optimize the design of supply chain networks have gained more interest in the supply chain literature. Mixed-integer linear programming and discrete-event simulation are widely used for such an optimization problem. We present a hybrid approach to support decisions for supply chain network design using a combination of analytical and discrete-event simulation models. The prop...
