blood supply chain Design network based on the national blood supply network, reliability, and prioritization of the use of compatible blood groups using NSGA-II and MOICA

Disasters, especially earthquakes, have undesirable consequences such as destruction, loss of life and weakening of the effectiveness of health services, and a significant challenge after a devastating earthquake is how to provide blood to the affected people in hospitals. The aim of this study is to present a multi-objective mathematical model in order to reduce the cost and increase the reliability of the blood supply chain. Reliability is considered to factors such as transportation conditions, road damage, temperature fluctuations, packaging standards, laboratory equipment. In this model, the amount of blood collected from donors, the number and location of blood collection centers, the amount of blood in each center and hospital are considered. Also, considering the past experiences of crisis management organizations and the Red Crescent, in order to get closer to real-world issues, different blood groups, compatibility between some blood groups and the use of the national blood supply network for the use of certain provinces have been considered. Also, in this study, a policy is considered to encourage blood donors...
