Manufacturing/remanufacturing based supply chain management under advertisements and carbon emissions process

Abstract

One of the most successful ways to get the word out about a product's popularity across all types of customers is through advertising. It has a valuable direct influence on increasing product demand. The supply chain model is developed for manufacturer and retailer, where advertisements are dependent on demand. The advertisement rate has been considered a function that has enhanced at a diminishing rate concerning time, although the growth rate slowed. During the manufacturing cycle, the market's demand is a function of advertisement, and the customer's demand is a linear function of time. The production rate exceeds the demand rate during manufacturing and remanufacturing; shortages are not faced. It involves a manufacturing/remanufacturing process that quickly delivers consumer products and less waste. To keep the environment clean, the cost of carbon emissions is incorporated into the manufacturer's and supplier's holding and degrading costs. The model's primary purpose is to minimize the overall cost of manufacturing and remanufacturing. The overall cost during the manufacturing cycle is higher than that during the remanufacturing cycle. This study confirms that the increasing cost of advertising provides the continuous increasing value of the total cost. A numerical example is provided, graphical representation and sensitivity analysis determine the function's behavior and test the model.

Technology license sharing strategy for remanufacturing industries under a closed-loop supply chain management bonding

“…Studies had shown that increasing unit purchasing and remanufacturing costs of used products increased the quality and decreases the brand investment. Subhash et al [26] confirmed that the increasing cost of advertising provided a continuous increasing value of the total cost.…”

Random misplacement and production process reliability: A sustainable industrial approach to deal with the discrepancy and deficiency

“…[24] developed a manufacturing strategy for a sustainable model that is energy efficient with flexible production. According to [13], a study investigated the feasibility of production and remanufacturing coordination for an integrated supply chain system. [8] provide an overview of a reverse logistics supply-chain strategy for customer satisfaction.…”

A bi-objective integrated transportation and inventory management under a supply chain network considering multiple distribution networks

“…Farrokh et al [37] dealt with an SCN model design that includes recycling and disposal processes and formulated a mixed-integer programming model that optimized SCN configuration, fluctuations, and operational risks. Fattahi et al [38] tackled a multi-period network modernization challenge, where consumer zones have stochastic price-dependent demand for multiple products.…”

“…The model is semi-static because it involves inventory cost, ordering cost, the plant's capacity & warehouse, lead time, and buffer stock parameters in multi-periods and multi-products. Various other costs (shortage cost, cost of setting up the warehouse, and manufacturing cost of goods) and risk parameters have been proposed in various studies (Mohammed and Duffuaa, [11]; Choi et al, [23]; Kumar et al, [37]; Kugele et al, [42]; Sarkar et al, [56]) can be incorporated in the present model. Some exciting research areas for the future are:…”
