|---|---|---|
| 1 | Project Title : Development of logistics and reverse logistics supply chain model considering uncertainty during worldwide COVID-19 outbreak
Expected Outcome : A lot of research has been conducted and is still going on in various parts of the world on COVID-19 outbreak from different aspects. Through this proposal we are expecting to offer analysis for predicting both short-term and long-term impacts of epidemic outbreaks on the Supply chain (SC) and uncover critical parameters and scenarios of positive and negative SC performance dynamics. This analysis can help to identify the successful and wrong elements of risk mitigation/preparedness and recovery policies in case of epidemic outbreaks Expected Timeline : Work has been started and expected to be completed within 3 years Remarks : Funding required Rs. 30.0 Lakh URL : http://www.nita.ac.in/ Additional Info PI Details : Dr. Uttam Kumar Bera, Associate Professor, Department of Mathematics, NIT Agartala PI Email id : bera_uttam@yahoo.co.in |
