Information Dependency in Mitigating Disruption Cascades

Manufacturing & Service Operations Management
Problem definition: Shocks that trigger supply chain disruptions inflict initial losses by damaging firms’ assets. The disruption can then cascade when an affected firm fails to deliver to its buyer, thereby interrupting the buyer’s operations, and continue thus across multiple levels (tiers) in the supply chain.

Control, detection and mitigation of disruptions on ITER

2015 IEEE 26th Symposium on Fusion Engineering (SOFE), 2015
The fast loss of thermal and magnetic energy during an unmitigated disruption in ITER can lead to heat fluxes exceeding melt thresholds for plasma facing components, can generate high electromagnetic loads in some cases close to the design limits, and can potentially cause the generation of high energy runaway electrons.

Disruptions in ITER and strategies for their control and mitigation

Journal of Nuclear Materials, 2015
Abstract The thermal and electromagnetic loads related to disruptions in ITER are substantial and require careful design of tokamak components to ensure they reach the projected lifetime and to ensure that safety relevant components fulfil their function for the worst foreseen scenarios. The disruption load specifications are the basis for the design

Disruption Physics and Mitigation on DIII-D

Fusion Science and Technology, 2005
The contributions of the DIII-D tokamak toward the understanding and control of disruptions are reviewed. Disruptions are found to be deterministic, and the underlying causes of disruption can therefore be predicted and avoided. With sufficiently rapid detection, possible damage from disruptions can be mitigated using an understanding of disruption ...

Effectiveness of policies for mitigating supply disruptions

International Journal of Physical Distribution & Logistics Management, 2013
PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to examine supply‐side disruptions in a supply chain, and to analyse the effectiveness of two inventory‐based policies for mitigating the impact of supply disruptions: maintaining strategic inventory reserves (the R‐policy), and using larger orders (the Q‐policy).Design/methodology/approachThe paper assess the ...

Disruptions – a proposal for their mitigation by runaway suppression

Journal of Nuclear Materials, 2003
Abstract The avoidance of disruptions is essential for the next generation tokamaks. The dangerous consequences of disruptions are excessive heat loads, high forces, creation of high-energy runaway electrons, and a bad conditioning for the start of the following discharge.

ITER disruption mitigation technologies and beyond

2015 IEEE 26th Symposium on Fusion Engineering (SOFE), 2015
ITER is designed to withstand a certain number of full scale plasma disruptions; each disruption event can induce excessive thermal loads, electromagnetic (EM) loads, and runaway electrons (REs) onto the vacuum vessel and invessel components. The consequences of unmitigated events are extremely serious in terms of reduced component lifetime and ...

Mitigating supply disruption with ordering and supply restoration decisions

Computers & Industrial Engineering, 2018
Abstract This study examines the manufacturer’s disruption mitigation decisions when sourcing from a supplier subject to random disruption, and producing products to meet the customer’s periodic demands over a planning horizon. To mitigate the risk of supply restoration failure, the manufacturer plans and makes efforts on a regular basis over the ...

Super facilities versus chaining in mitigating disruptions impacts

Computers & Industrial Engineering, 2013
Dealing disruptions has increasingly attracted researchers' attention in the last decades due to recent events: weather deregulation, natural disasters, financial crisis, etc. Researchers often dealt with the strategic aspect of the problem while making facility location decisions to build a robust supply chain. In this paper we address the flexibility
