  • Multi-objective Optimization for Equitable Post-Disaster Relief Supply Distribution

    Creator:
    Subramaniam, Purnima
    Abstract:
    Humanitarian logistics in the post-disaster phase of an earthquake requires detailed planning about the relief distribution network including assigning available distribution centers (DCs) to the affected areas, distribution of the relief commodities demanded by the affected population, and efficient allocation of the available vehicle fleet for the distribution in a...

  • Multi-objective Resilience Optimization of Interdependent Critical Infrastructure Networks

    Creator:
    Tiong, Achara
    Abstract:
    Critical Infrastructures (CIs) such as energy, water supply, telecommunications, and transportation are highly vulnerable to cascading failures due to their interdependent operations. A resilient network is crucial to withstand the impact of functionality loss in disruptive events. This research evaluates network expansion as a proactive resilience strategy in which new...

  • Operations Research Models for Blood Supply Chain Network Design for Disaster Planning

    Creator:
    Baik, Shefaa A.
    Abstract:
    A blood supply chain (BSC) deals with the collection, processing, storing, and distribution of blood collected from donors and delivered to patients at demand points (DPs) through a network of several temporary mobile blood units (MBUs) and permanent local blood centers (LBCs). In general, the strategic and tactical design of...

  • The effects of disruption propagation and mitigation strategies on a distribution supply chain system

    Creator:
    Hsu, Samantha
    Abstract:
    Supply chain disruptions and their propagating effects often result in negative impacts on supply chain performance, reduced profit, and an overall decrease in supply chain health. To mitigate these risks, it is important to understand the behavior of specific disruptions and to identify mitigation strategies that would be the most...

  • A Quantitative Analysis of Simultaneous Supply and Demand Disruptions on a Multi-Echelon Supply Chain

    Creator:
    Kost, Austin R.
    Abstract:
    Modern supply chains have grown to be far more complex than their predecessors, as global trade and accessibility have opened avenues of trade that were previously impossible. As such, the inherent risk of internal and/or external disruptions impacting the performance of a supply chain has also grown due to the...
