However, due to the variability in cargo properties and the influence of various factors on transportation route decisions, formulating a low-carbon and economical multimodal freight transport plan remains a significant challenge. To address the issue, this study considered cargoes with different attributes in terms of both value and time attributes. Triangular fuzzy numbers were employed to represent the uncertain demand for cargo, with confidence levels introduced for clarification. A low-carbon route decision optimization model for multimodal freight transport was established to minimize the combined transportation carbon emission and time costs. The catastrophe adaptive genetic algorithm, based on Monte Carlo sampling, was employed to solve the model using arithmetic examples. Finally, parameter sensitivity analysis revealed that adjustments to carbon tax values and changes in the proportion of electric trucks and green electricity supply had the most significant impact on the low-carbon route decision-making plan for multimodal freight transport. For low value-added and timeliness-strong cargo, a 60 % increase in carbon tax value shifted the mode of transportation from road to railway. When the carbon tax increased by more than 140 %, the transportation mode shifted from railway to waterway. Additionally, when the proportion of electric trucks and green electricity supply both exceeded 80 %, the transportation mode between some city nodes shifted from railway to road. When these proportions increased beyond 90 %, road transportation became the predominant mode.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":22033,"journal":{"name":"Socio-economic Planning Sciences","volume":"96 ","pages":"Article 102108"},"PeriodicalIF":6.2,"publicationDate":"2024-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142651419","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many reports have declared the COVID-19 impediments to trading and global economic growth. This study aims to provide a mathematical model to support pharmaceutical supply chain planning during the COVID-19 epidemic. Additionally, it aims to offer new insights into hospital supply chain problems by unifying cold and non-cold chains and considering a wide range of pharmaceuticals and vaccines. This approach is unprecedented and includes an analysis of various pharmaceutical features such as temperature, shelf life, priority, and clustering. To propose a model for planning the pharmaceutical supply chains, a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model is used for a four-echelon supply chain design. This model aims to minimize the costs involved in the pharmaceutical supply chain by maintaining an acceptable service level. Also, this paper considers uncertainty as an intrinsic part of the problem and addresses it through the wait-and-see method. Furthermore, an unexplored unsupervised learning method in the realm of supply chain planning has been used to cluster the pharmaceuticals and the vaccines and its merits and drawbacks are proposed. A case of Tehran hospitals with real data has been used to show the model's capabilities, as well. Based on the obtained results, the proposed approach is able to reach the optimum service level in the COVID conditions while maintaining a reduced cost. The experiment illustrates that the hospitals' adjacency and emergency orders alleviated the service level significantly. The proposed MILP model has proven to be efficient in providing a practical intuition for decision-makers.

In contrast, the potential disadvantages of maintaining adequate items at strategic locations (i.e., reserves) are considerable inventory-related costs. Unpredicted demand leads to a high degree of uncertainty. Efforts to mitigate the uncertainty should rely not only on prepositioning supplies at reserves but also on integrating various channels of medical materials. This paper proposes multi-mitigation strategies in medical supplies to ensure uninterrupted supply for hospitals and significant savings by introducing two-type suppliers, reserving and manufacturing suppliers. Thus, each hospital with uncertain demand is enabled to be served by various channels during pandemics: prepositioning in reserves, backups served by reserving suppliers, and medical commodities produced by manufacturing suppliers. Stochasticity is also incorporated into the raw materials available to produce. This research aims to develop an emergency response application that integrates preparedness action (reserve location, inventory level, and contract supplier's selection) with post-event operations (allocating medical materials from various channels). We formulate a two-stage stochastic mixed integer program to determine prepositioning strategy, including two-type suppliers' selection, and post-event allocation of multiple sources. A branch-and-Benders-cut method is developed for this problem and significantly outperforms both the classical Benders decomposition and Gurobi in the solution time. Different-sized test instances also verify the robustness of the proposed method. Based on a realistic and typical case study (inspired by the COVID-19 pandemic in Wuhan, China), significant savings, an increase in inventory utilization and an increase in demand fulfilment are obtained by our approach.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":22033,"journal":{"name":"Socio-economic Planning Sciences","volume":"87 ","pages":"Article 101516"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9867827/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9615416","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
