The field of supply chain management has been extensively studied, while its role in
disaster relief operations has received limited contributions. Recent dedicated special …

We present a survey that focuses on the response and recovery planning phases of the
disaster lifecycle. Related mathematical models developed in this area of research are …

This paper proposes a Continuous Approximation (CA) model that designs the potentiality of
drones as a mode of transportation to supply emergency commodities in a disaster-affected …

Usually, resources are short in supply when earthquakes occur. In such emergency
situations, disaster relief organizations must use these scarce resources efficiently to …

In the last 20 years, Emergency Management has received increasing attention from the
scientific community. Meanwhile, the study of relief distribution networks has become one of …

The increasing number of affected people due to disasters, the complexity and
unpredictability of these phenomena and the different problems encountered in the planning …

This paper develops a mathematical model to determine the location of points of distribution
(PODs) and inventory allocation in Post-Disaster Humanitarian Logistics (PD-HL). The …

Emergency resource allocation and vehicle routing are the most essential and inseparable
response actions in emergency management after disasters. In particular, disaster response …

In this study, a stochastic multi-objective mixed-integer mathematical programming is
proposed for logistic distribution and evacuation planning during an earthquake. Decisions …

To enable the immediate and efficient dispatch of relief to victims of disaster, this study
proposes a greedy-search-based, multi-objective, genetic algorithm capable of regulating …
