    A General Production and Financial Planning Model: Case of A Poultry Integration

    We propose a general linear programming formulation for a poultry integration to facilitate decision making in production and financial planning. The formulation is motivated by a medium-size application and by involving practitioners from the industry. It is a realistic and strategic model since we incorporate all divisions in a complex poultry integration, (including, but not limited to, feed mill, breeder coops, incubation house, broiler coops, slaughterhouse and distribution centers) as well as the interrelations among these divisions. The horizon we consider is in years, which makes the plan a strategic level plan in this fast-paced industry. Through extensive experimentation with various end-customer demand scenarios, we found out that the quantity of breeder chicks to buy at certain times during the planning horizon is the robust key decision variable in the overall system. © 2020, King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals.

    Bi-Objective Adaptive Large Neighborhood Search Algorithm for the Healthcare Waste Periodic Location Inventory Routing Problem
    (2021) Aydemir Karadağ, Ayyüce; 116059
    There has been an unexpected increase in the amount of healthcare waste during the COVID-19 pandemic. Managing healthcare waste is vital, as improper practices in the waste system can lead to the further spread of the virus. To develop effective and sustainable waste management systems, decisions in all processes from the source of the waste to its disposal should be evaluated together. Strategic decisions involve locating waste processing centers, while operational decisions deal with waste collection. Although the periodic collection of waste is used in practice, it has not been studied in the relevant literature. This paper integrates the periodic inventory routing problem with location decisions for designing healthcare waste management systems and presents a bi-objective mixed-integer nonlinear programming model that minimizes operating costs and risk simultaneously. Due to the complexity of the problem, a two-step approach is proposed. The first stage provides a mixed-integer linear model that generates visiting schedules to source nodes. The second stage offers a Bi-Objective Adaptive Large Neighborhood Search Algorithm (BOALNS) that processes the remaining decisions considered in the problem. The performance of the algorithm is tested on several hypothetical problem instances. Computational analyses are conducted by comparing BOALNS with its other two versions, Adaptive Large Neighborhood Search Algorithm and Bi-Objective Large Neighborhood Search Algorithm (BOLNS). The computational experiments demonstrate that our proposed algorithm is superior to these algorithms in several performance evaluation metrics. Also, it is observed that the adaptive search engine increases the capability of BOALNS to achieve high-quality Pareto-optimal solutions.

    Intermodal Humanitarian Logistics Using Unit Load Devices
    (2022) Kavlak, Hasan; Ertem, Mustafa Alp; Satır, Benhür; 57708; 52460; 54700
    Intermodal freight transportation facilitates today’s global trade. The benefits of intermodal freight transportation have been studied and are more observable in commercial logistics; however, the potential benefits of humanitarian logistics have not been thoroughly investigated. This research aims to present a resilient transportation framework by modeling intermodal transportation utilizing interoperable loading devices during disaster responses. We developed an integer programming model based on a time–space network by considering route and vehicle availabilities that are allowed to change with time. We consider vehicles with varying capacities in three transportation modes (i.e., ground, maritime, and air). The contribution of this study is threefold: (1) Two compatible unit load devices are proposed for humanitarian logistics; (2) a mathematical model that includes integer variable representation for vehicle fleets in different transportation modes is developed; and (3) intermodal transportation is compared with single-mode transportation using a real-life dataset. Our main results are as follows: In terms of cost, intermodal transportation is effective when demand occurs in consecutive periods and response time is short. Inventory is held more in intermodal transportation when it is cost-effective to use transportation modes with large capacities. Thus, the benefits of the responsiveness of intermodal transportation outweigh the costs of mode interchange and inventory holding for sudden-onset disasters where quick responses are needed within a short time. © 2021, King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals.
