To access the efficient inventory system, managers should consider all the situations that have happened in reality. One of these situations is the presence of the defective items in each received lot and the other situation is being the group of customers that do not wait to fulfill their requirements from the vendor and choose another one to get their orders so the proportion of the backorder...

In practice the items received in a lot may contain defective items, and the screening process to eliminate the defective items may involve both a Type I and a Type II error. Due to the defective items and the inspection errors, shortages may sometimes occur. In this paper, we develop an economic order quantity model with imperfect quality items, inspection errors, shortage backordering, and sa...

 The paper considers an integrated production, inspection, preventive maintenance, and inventory problem and determines the optimal inspection interval, inspection frequency, and production quantity yielding the maximum unit expected profit in an imperfect production process with inspection time and reworking. When the process in an out-of-control state produces a certain percentage of non-con...

a new mathematical model for the optimal production isformulated for the inventory management system under time-varyingand stochastic inflation environment for deteriorating items. the timehorizon is finite and demand rate is dependent to the inflation. in thereal situation, some but not all customers will wait for backlogged itemsduring a shortage period, such as for fashionable commodities or...

From our review on sustainable EOQ inventory models, most researchers did not include carbon emission in the objective function or constraint. In this study, we enrich recent research by incorporating sustainability criteria into model. The study develops an model considering that comes from transportation and warehouse operations. Moreover, also consider imperfect quality items assume complete...

In practices, not only production but inspection processes are often not perfect, thereby generating defects and inspection errors. Previous imperfect-quality inventory studies, however, have mostly focused on developing cost-minimizing models that do not consider imperfect inspection processes and related defect sales return issues despite their practical significance. Thus, this study propose...
