This paper deals with the economics of a closed-loop supply chain and the decision-making in a hybrid manufacturing system. We develop analytic models and quantify the potential profits gain generated by such a hybrid system that collects, remanufactures, and remarkets the end-of-use products as...

This paper deals with a strategic issue of closed-loop supply chains with remanufacturing by developing analytic models under cooperative and competitive settings. The primary goal behind analytic formulation is to investigate under what conditions an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) may...

This study deals with managing two differentiated versions of the same product by developing analytical models using Lagrangean relaxation and dynamic programming schemes. We assume market demand is price-dependent and partially substitutable between the new and remanufactured goods, and supply...
