Yayın Designing reverse logistics network for end-of-life vehicles: A sustainability perspective in a fragile supply chain(The International Journal of Industrial Engineering, 2021) Kuşakcı, Ali Osman; Kuşakcı, Ali Osman; Ayvaz, Berk; Kuşakcı, Ali Osman; Aydın, Nezir; Ertaş, Emine; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme Bölümü; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme BölümüEnvironmental guidelines in the automotive industry greatly emphasize the recycling, remanufacturing, and recovering of end-of-life vehicles (ELVs). Given the principle of extended producer responsibility, developing an effective reverse logistics network is the most significant digit ahead of the industry. However, initial attempts addressing the reverse logistics network design (RLND) problem were short-sighted, focusing on cost minimization. Undoubtedly, the whole concept of recycling was founded on the pillars of sustainability. Accordingly, reverse logistics network design must be motivated by long-term environmental and societal benefits. This fact has become even more prominent in the current pandemic environment as COVID-19 has added serious uncertainties and risks to the supply chain processes. This paper reiterates the essence of sustainability goals and proposes a multi-objective fuzzy mathematical model to RLND problem for ELVs under such a fragile and fuzzy environment. The coverage of the proposed model is to optimally determine the locations and numbers of the facilities and the flows among them concerning environmental, social, and economic aspects. Hence, the model aims to reach a robust compromise solution that leads to a resilient network design. A real case study on the ELV market in Istanbul/Turkey proves the merit of the developed model.Yayın The impacts of COVID-19 on travel behavior and initial perception of public transport measures in Istanbul(Elsevier, 2022) Kuşakcı, Ali Osman; Kuşakcı, Ali Osman; Aydın, Nezir; Kuşakcı, Ali Osman; Deveci, Muhammet; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme Bölümü; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme BölümüThe epidemic disease emerged in Wuhan/China in December 2019, which primarily causes acute respiratory syndrome and spread worldwide in a very short time. Although the countries took numerous precautions, the spread of the virus could not be controlled. Furthermore, due to the inability to maintain physical distance and the excess of shared surfaces, public transport services also increase the risk of spreading. This study analyzes the changes in perceptions and behavior of passengers who use public transportation via a survey. The survey is developed to assess the behavioral change of passengers pre and post-pandemic of COVID-19. Outcomes showed a notable shift among transportation modes due to closure of venues, utilization of distance education, partial curfews in Istanbul. A further focal point of the study is the passengers’ attitudes towards preventive measures and their perceptions on how well responsible bodies have implemented the measures. Thus, it provides valuable insights into the changes in the traveling habits of city residents, which help the policymakers of public transportation.Yayın Managing public transport during COVID-19: An analysis of the impact and preventive response in Istanbul(Millî Savunma Üniversitesi, 2021) Kuşakcı, Ali Osman; Kuşakcı, Ali Osman; Deveci, Muhammet; Aydın, Nezir; Kuşakcı, Ali Osman; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme Bölümü; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme BölümüThe number of passengers in public transport has decreased significantly in major cities around the world due to COVID-19. As residents of many countries work from home, they have avoided public transport to minimize their exposure to the outbreak and have changed their way of traveling within their cities due to major changes in local public transport services. Istanbul is one of the cities most affected by the pandemic in terms of the daily number of passengers using public transportation. For the first time since the pandemic started in Istanbul, the use of urban public transportation has decreased by more than 90 percent. The aim of this study is to examine the measures taken in Istanbul public transport in order to prevent the spread of the coronavirus pandemic. In addition, the trends in public transport and inter-modes demands during COVID-19 are analyzed. The results showed that COVID-19 measures to protect the health of passengers in Istanbul public transport are in line with global practices during the initial stage of the pandemic.Yayın Optimization of reverse logistics network of End of Life Vehicles under fuzzy supply: A case study for Istanbul Metropolitan Area(Elsevier, 2019) Kuşakcı, Ali Osman; Kuşakcı, Ali Osman; Kuşakcı, Ali Osman; Ayvaz, Berk; Cin, Emine; Aydın, Nezir; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme Bölümü; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme BölümüRecycling aims at preventing rapid depletion of natural resources while transforming produced waste into value for economy. However, this process becomes a major challenge in automotive industry, which requires cooperative engagement of multiple players within a complex supply chain. In line with the essence of the topic, government agencies around the world issue directives drawing regulatory frameworks for designing recycling operations comprising various activities such as collection of end-of-life vehicles (ELVs), recovery of reusable components, shredding ELV's body, recycling valuable materials and disposal of the hazardous waste. In general, the amount of returned product in a reverse logistics network is highly uncertain, and the ELV market in Turkey is no exception to this. For that purpose, this study aims developing a fuzzy mixed integer location-allocation model for reverse logistic network of ELVs conforming to the existing directives in Turkey. Accordingly, this study uses a novel approach and assumes that ELV supply in the network is uncertain. The merit of the proposed mathematical model is proved on a real world scenario addressing the reverse logistics design problem for ELVs generated in metropolitan area of Istanbul. The network generated specifies that recycling process is not profitable under the existing circumstances with the given level of supplied ELV and the returned product records per capita in Istanbul are far beyond the EU averages. Consequently, sensitivity analyses question the reliability of the obtained results.
