In this work, we propose a single period stochastic inventory decision-making model that captures the trade-off between inventory policies and disruption risks for unreliable (both uncapacitated and capacitated) dual-sourcing reverse supply chain networks. Risk-management has emerged high at the...

Managing risk and disruptions have emerged as issues of critical importance for today's globalised supply chains. In this work, we first provide an up-to-date taxonomy of the risks that supply chains are exposed to along with the appropriate solutions that can be employed to improve their...

As ports have become key logistics nodes in global chains, port management of container operations has been experiencing radical changes. Moreover, the ramifications of the associated policy-making expand well beyond their own boundaries. The challenging managerial environment is further...

The integration of renewable energy sources into existing energy systems has emerged as pivotal in the context of sustainable energy planning. However, despite their appeal, the diffusion rate of eco-innovative technologies in the energy sector varies considerably among countries, mainly due to...

Purpose – Proactive planning strategies for “slow-onset” disruptions that affect humanitarian supply chains (SC) developed to address chronic pressing societal problems, can have a significant impact on boosting the operational and financial performance of these chains. The purpose of this...
