Viable healthcare supply chain network design for a pandemic [PDF]
Annals of Operations Research, 2022 AbstractThe recent COVID-19 pandemic revealed that healthcare networks must have a flexible and effective structure. In this study, we develop a viable healthcare network design for a pandemic using a multi-stage stochastic approach. We propose a multi-level network that includes health centers, computed tomography scan centers, hospitals, and clinics.

Designing a Supply Chain Network under the Risk of Disruptions [PDF]
Mathematical Problems in Engineering, 2012 This paper studies a supply chain design problem with the risk of disruptions at facilities. At any point of time, the facilities are subject to various types of disruptions caused by natural disasters, man‐made defections, and equipment breakdowns. We formulate the problem as a mixed‐integer nonlinear program which maximizes the total profit for the ...
