The aim of this study is to determine and prioritize the factors affecting optimal location of temporary accommodation sites. Using the opinion of experts and the Fuzzy Delphi method, three main criteria including infrastructural factors, access, and sustainability and 11 subcriteria are identified. To specify the weight of the identified factors, the fuzzy DEMATEL-based analytic network process (FDANP) method is used. After applying this technique, it is determined that the main criterion of access has the greatest weight among the main criteria. Finally, District 6 of Tehran Municipality has been considered as a case study to represent the efficiency and applicability of the proposed method. According to conducted research on different scenarios of earthquake activity in Tehran, the number of displaced people requiring shelters, the area of required space, and suitable places for the construction of temporary shelters are determined. The alternative locations have been ranked using the linear assignment method, and the best prioritized sites to establish temporary shelters for two assumed cases of temporary accommodation are presented. ; separate discussions must be submitted for individual papers.

The efficient and effective response to disasters critically depends on humanitarian supply chains (HSCs). HSCs need to be flexible to adapt to uncertainties in needs, infrastructure conditions, and behavior of other organizations. The concept of 'network flexibility' is, however, not clearly defined. The lack of an unanimous definition has led to a lack of consistent understanding and comparisons. This paper makes a threefold contribution: first, it defines the concept of network flexibility for HSC in the context of sudden onset disasters. Second, it proposes a framework to measure network flexibility in HSCs. Third, we apply our framework to the 2015 Nepal earthquake case and provide evidence-based insights regarding how humanitarian organizations can improve network flexibility in HSCs. Our analyses for Nepal case show that delivery, IT support, and fleet criteria have the most influence on flexibility. Also, the application of our framework on the downstream network of nine humanitarian organizations shows low levels of network flexibility in all but one. This finding explains why several disruptions happened in relief distributions during the Nepal response.

This work develops a multi-objective, two-stage stochastic, non-linear, and mixed-integer mathematical model for relief pre-positioning in disaster management. Improved imbalance and efficacy measures incorporated into the model based on a new utility level of the delivered relief commodities. Moreover, this model considers the usage possibility of a set of alternative routes for each of applied transportation modes and consequently improves the network reliability. An integrated separable programming-augmented εconstraint approach is proposed to address the problem. The best Pareto-optimal solution is selected by PROMETHEE-II. Finally, the theoretical improvements of the presented approach are validated by experiments and a real case study.
