A New Multiechelon Mathematical Modeling for Pre‐ and Postdisaster Blood Supply Chain: Robust Optimization Approach
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Disaster management is one of the most important actions to protect the property and lives of the victims. Failure to pay attention to logistical decisions of disaster can have irreversible consequences. Therefore, a multiechelon mathematical model for blood supply chain management in disaster situations is proposed in this research. The proposed supply chain includes supplier, central warehouse, reliable distributor, unreliable distributor, distributor, and affected areas. How the proposed model performs is explained as follows: blood is sent from the supplier to warehouses and distribution centers. Also, the capacity of suppliers is limited. The main objective of the mathematical model is to minimize supply chain costs while maximizing the level of satisfaction in order to meet the demand of the affected area. Hence, this research seeks to decide whether or not to establish a reliable distributor, unreliable distributor, and central warehouse. The amount of blood sent to the centers will also be calculated. One of the contributions of the proposed model is to consider the pre‐ and postdisaster modes simultaneously. Locating and investigating the flow between centers are also the other contributions of this study. Solving the proposed model using a robust optimization approach is another innovation taken into account in this research. The proposed model is solved using robust optimization, and finally, the results indicate the proper performance of the proposed model.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
