Research Topic
A hybrid modelling approach for supply network design under supply and demand uncertainty.
Research Issue
This research proposes a hybrid optimisation and simulation approach for supply network design. The main propose is to optimise a supply network. An optimisation model is applied to find an optimum design, whereas a simulation model is used to emulate an uncertain of supply and demand.
Hybrid approaches may overcome deficiencies in optimisation and simulation methods. An agent-based simulation will be used in this research. The advantage of combining simulation and optimisation is that it overcomes the weaknesses inherent in the conventional approaches; however, the proposed hybrid method allows the strengths to be exploited.
Sector
Supply network design.
Research Methods
Combine optimisation and simulation approach.
Theoretical Perspective
Positivism.
