Disruption tails and post-disruption instability mitigation in the supply chain

open access: yesIFAC-PapersOnLine, 2019
Abstract We study the coordination effects of production and ordering policies in the supply chain (SC) that experiences capacity disruptions and recovery. Discrete-event simulation methodology is used for analysis with real company data and real disruptions.

Influence of massive material injection on avalanche runaway generation during tokamak disruptions

open access: yes, 2019
In high-current tokamak devices such as ITER, a runaway avalanche can cause a large amplification of a seed electron population. We show that disruption mitigation by impurity injection may significantly increase the runaway avalanche growth rate in such
