In this article, I present a review and tutorial of the literature on closed‐loop supply chains,
which are supply chains where, in addition to typical forward flows, there are reverse flows of …

In the actual era of the international trade, global warming and depletion of Earth's natural
resources, the willingness to generate sustainable and competitive benefits determines us to …

In the recent years, increasing attention has been posed towards enhancing the

Potential benefits have made remanufacturing attractive over the last decade. Nevertheless,
the complexity and uncertainties associated with the process of managing returned products …

There has been consensus that logistics as well as supply chain management is a vital

In this paper, a closed-loop supply chain network is investigated with decentralized decision-
makers consisting of raw material suppliers, retail outlets, and the manufacturers that collect …

Cores acquired by a remanufacturer are typically highly variable in quality. Even if the
expected fractions of the various quality levels are known, then the exact fractions when …
