in zero acceptance number sampling plans, the sample items of an incoming lot are inspected one by one. the proposed method in this research follows these rules: if the number of nonconforming items in the first sample is equal to zero, the lot is accepted but if the number of nonconforming items is equal to one, then second sample is taken and the policy of zero acceptance number would be appl...

The impact of financial challenges on the profit of a supply chain, have caused the researcher to model the supply chain network by considering the operational and financial dimensions. Also, the establishment of a closed loop supply chain (CLSC) network has a high effect on economic profit. So, the purpose of this study is to design a stochastic closed loop supply chain network by considering ...

In this paper, a deterministic prey–predator model is proposed and analyzed. The interaction between three predators single prey was investigated. impact of harvesting on the studied, we concluded that dynamics population can be controlled by harvesting. Some sufficient conditions were obtained to ensure local global stability equilibrium points. transcritical bifurcation investigated using Sot...

todays, improving the competitiveness of companies and rapidly responding to diverse customers’ demands requires efficient management of the supply chain. integration is one of the effective indices in a supply chain, and vendor managed inventory (vmi) is one of the innovative approaches in this field. in this paper, an integrated model based on a vmi system for deteriorating and ameliorating i...

the objective of this research is to tackle the emerging problem of jointly determining theoptimal retail price, the replenishment cycle, and the cost of preservation technology investment from an integrated perspective among the supplier and the manufacturer. this paper deals an integrated single-manufacturer single-retailer supply chain model for deteriorating items under revenue sharing on p...

economic development plans normally contain some policy objectives, especially for the most important macroeconomic variables. governments are expected to take best policies to achieve these objectives, although due to some structural or other impediments they may fail to touch the objectives. we have attempted to uncover the determinants of private consumption and investment as the objectives ...

In this paper, a bi-objective multi-product single-vendor single-buyer supply chain problem is studied under green vendor-managed inventory (VMI) policy based on the economic production quantity (EPQ) model. To bring the model closer to real-world supply chain, four constraints of model including backordering cost, number of orders, production budget and warehouse space are considered stochasti...
