| Summary: | Currently, supply chain network design becomes more complex. In designing a supply chain network to withstand changing events, it is necessary to consider the uncertainties and risks that cause network disruptions from unexpected events. The current research related to the designing problem considers network disruptions using Monte Carlo Sampling (MCS) or Latin Hypercube Sampling (LHS) techniques. Both have a disadvantage that sample points or disruption locations are not scattered entirely sample space leading to high variation in objective function values. The purpose of this study is to apply a modified LHS or Improved Distributed Hypercube Sampling (IHS) techniques to reduce the variation. The results show that IHS techniques provide smaller standard deviation than that of the LHS technique. In addition, IHS can reduce not only the number of sample size but also and the computational time. |
