Green Flexible Supply Chain Network Design; A Genetic Algorithm Approach, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Akbari Jokar, Mohammad Reza (Supervisor)
Abstract
This study aimed to develop a green network design for a multi-echelon multi-product supply chain with a focus on bottleneck points as the means of enhancing unutilized capacities to maintain the optimal levels of flexibility. Two different models were developed to compare different approaches of flexible capacity planning by minimizing the total cost of facility establishment as well as their utilization and transportation cost. The proposed mixed-integer linear programming model was characterized by its novelty in taking bottleneck points into account to build a platform for flexible capacity planning required for responding to uncertainties such as fluctuations in demand and new product...
