Summary: Traditional supply chains are becoming more volatile, leading to an increasing adoption of mobile modularization. This allows for flexible capacity adjustments and facility relocations to tackle market volatility. A mixed-integer linear programming model is proposed for closed-loop supply chain network planning with modular distribution and collection facilities. The model is further extended to incorporate uncertain customer demands and recovery rates, and is efficiently solved using a tailored stochastic dynamic dual integer programming approach. Computational experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm and the benefits of mobile modules in high temporal and spatial variability of customer demand.

Summary: This paper aims to design a mathematical model for sustainable closed-loop supply chains during the COVID-19 outbreak. The proposed model considers multiple objectives, including minimizing total cost, carbon emission, and infection risk, and maximizing social benefits. Stochastic demands, supplier selection, and facility disruptions are taken into account. The stochastic model is transformed into a deterministic model using the CCP approach. The effects of COVID-19 on network performance are examined using 30 test datasets. The results show that the model with COVID-19 has a higher total inventory and aggregated objectives, indicating a greater distance from optimal objectives. However, the model without COVID-19 has higher computational efficiency. Sensitivity analyses are conducted, and policy implications are proposed, such as adjusting management focus based on demand forecasts and allocating resources effectively.

Summary: The usage of learning management systems (LMSs) has become widespread due to the disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Selecting a suitable LMS is a complex decision-making problem that involves considering multiple criteria and inputs from different parties. Usability evaluation of LMS is a critical step in the decision-making process. This study proposes an axiomatic design procedure (ADP) based approach for the perceived usability evaluation of SAKAI-LMS. The ADP method allows easy data fusion and setting performance targets. A questionnaire is developed to collect data on usability criteria and their importance from system users. The proposed approach provides an easy and practical evaluation of perceived usability of LMSs for decision makers. It has been verified through a real-life case study at an academic department.

Summary: The objective of this study is to find the optimum design configurations for functionally graded lattice structure filled aluminum tubes under multiple impact loading conditions. The optimal design is sought for maximizing specific energy absorption and minimizing peak crush force by considering base strut diameter, draft angle, and aspect ratio as filler material design parameters. Finite element simulations, regression meta-models, and an attraction-repulsion algorithm were employed to establish the design space, estimate objective function values, create design alternatives, and seek their optimum combinations. The results showed that the crashworthiness performance of hybrid structures can be effectively enhanced by selecting appropriate lattice filler parameters, with a potential improvement of up to 76% in specific energy absorption for square tubes. This study provides a guideline for the optimum design of functionally graded lattice structure filled thin-walled structures under multiple impact loading conditions.

Summary: In this study, a deep learning framework that combines interpretability and feature fusion is proposed for real-time monitoring of pipeline leaks. The proposed method extracts abstract feature details of leak acoustic emission signals through multi-level dynamic receptive fields and optimizes the learning process of the network using a feature fusion module. Experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively extract distinguishing features of leak acoustic emission signals, achieving higher recognition accuracy compared to typical deep learning methods. Additionally, feature map visualization demonstrates the physical interpretability of the proposed method in abstract feature extraction.
