A robust fuzzy mathematical programming model for the closed-loop supply chain network design and a whale optimization solution algorithm

作者:

Highlights:

• Robust fuzzy modeling can address the effect of uncertainty in parameters.

• The priority-based solution encoding is useful in construction of meta-heuristics.

• The proposed whale optimization algorithm provides fast high-quality solutions.

• The solution quality is consistent without parameter-dependent behavior.
