| dc.description.abstract | With the rise of environmental awareness in the twenty-first century, manufacturing order to reduce pollution and assume corporate responsibility, remanufacturing has aroused much attention of the company. On the other hand, remanufacturing make the best use of the returned items, open up the source and regulate the flow to reduce manufacturing cost, which is the critical technology that manufacturer should have. So how to encourage the consumer to enhance the return rate and invest related equipment to enhance the use rate has become a very important research topic for the manufacturing business.
This research mainly takes Dobos and Richter (2003) “the material flow in the model in a production and recycling cycle” as background, which separated the process of remanufacturing into six parts: production, serviceable stock, market, non-serviceable stock, recycling and disposal. Assume that the decision maker should give a sales effort to improve the return rate and also give a sales effort to improve the use rate, as a result, these two sales effort will correspond to the return rate function and the use rate function respectively.
Furthermore, in the view of manufacturing, sales effort are also kinds of cost. But different combinations of sales effort will correspond to different total cost. Some of the sales effort strategies will get a lower total cost after giving the sales effort. Therefore, this research also discuss what kind of sales effort strategies will correspond to the lowest total cost under a deterministic EOQ-type reverse logistic model. When the parameters are determined, we can successfully find out the situation which needs sales effort by Java or Matlab 3D graphics. | en_US |
