The oil industry operates in a very uncertain marketplace, where uncertain conditions can engender oil production fluctuations, order cancellation, transportation delays, etc. Uncertainty may arise from several sources and inexorably affect its management by interfering in the associated…

This paper studies the network design for a multi-product, multi-echelon and multi-period closed-loop supply chain (CLSC) accounting for decisions on the manufacture of new products and remanufactured versions of the new products. It is important to note that the design for…

This paper considers the optimal design and planning problem of a closed-loop supply chain (CLSC) where profit maximization is pursued while considering: adjustments in the network structure during the planning horizon providing flexibility to the network as well as uncertainty in supply and customer…

In this paper, a mixed integer linear programming (MILP) formulation is proposed that integrates financial risk measures into the design and planning of closed-loop supply chains, considering demand uncertainty of final products. The goal is to maximize the supply chain expected net present value…

The manufacturing of pharmaceutical products is preceded by complex development phases where process design, planning, and scheduling problems must be considered as deeply linked, fact that has not yet been adequately handled by the existing literature. In this perspective, this work discusses the…

The design and planning of resilient supply chains is a major challenge due to the increasing complexity of these systems that operate in a global market and therefore are more exposed to disruptions. In the present work a design and planning model that integrates demand uncertainty is…
