چکیده

امروزه جوامع در تلاش هستند تا با تزریق واکسن ایمنی افراد را در برابر بیماری‌ها تضمین کنند، بنابراین تأمین واکسن نقش مهمی در زندگی انسان‌ها دارد. هدف این پژوهش ارائه یک مدل ریاضی برای زنجیره‌تأمین واکسن است که افراد بیشتر و با هزینه کمتری بتوانند واکسن دریافت کنند. برای این منظور، یک مدل ریاضی باهدف حداقل‌کردن هزینه‌ها جهت تعیین تصمیمات مختلف زنجیره‌تأمین شامل تعداد، مکان و ظرفیت تأسیسات شبکه و تخصیص جریان در مراکز مختلف زنجیره‌تأمین ارائه ‌شده و از رویکرد برنامه‌ریزی تصادفی دومرحله‌ای برای برخورد با عدم قطعیت استفاده شده‌است. عدم قطعیت در تقاضاها، آسیب‌پذیری واکسن‌ها و انبار ضایعات و ظرفیت محدود و اولویت‌های مختلف برای تقاضا، هزینه کمبود برای تقاضا برطرف نشده، امکان جابه‌جایی بین انبارها و مکان‌یابی مراکز تزریق واکسن از مفروضات این پژوهش می‌باشد. خروجی حل مدل ریاضی پیشنهادی شامل مکان‌یابی مخزن‌ها، انبارها و مراکز تزریق واکسن، مقدار تقاضای برطرف نشده و میزان حمل‌ونقل بین اجزای مختلف شبکه زنجیره‌تأمین واکسن است. برای اعتبارسنجی نتایج حاصل از خروجی مدل ریاضی این پژوهش از سه روش حل موجود در گمز استفاده شده و بر روی پارامترهای مهم ‌مسأله نیز تحلیل حساسیت انجام گرفته ‌است.

چکیده [English]

Nowadays, societies are striving to ensure immunity against diseases through vaccination, making vaccine supply a crucial aspect of human life. The goal of this research is to propose a mathematical model for the vaccine supply chain to enable more people to receive vaccines at a lower cost. To this end, a mathematical model is presented with the objective of minimizing costs to determine various supply chain decisions, including the number, location, and capacity of network facilities, as well as flow allocation across different centers in the supply chain. A two-stage stochastic programming approach is used to address uncertainty. The assumptions of this research include uncertainties in demand, vaccine vulnerability, waste storage, limited capacity, varying priorities for demand, shortage costs for unmet demand, the possibility of transfers between warehouses, and the location of vaccination centers. The output of the proposed mathematical model includes the location of depots, warehouses, and vaccination centers, the amount of unmet demand, and the volume of transportation between different components of the vaccine supply chain network. To validate the results obtained from the mathematical model, three solution methods available in GAMS were used, and a sensitivity analysis was performed on the key parameters of the problem.
