Rosen Receved: 1 June 016; Acceped: 10 Ocober 016; Publshed: 16 Ocober 016 Absrac: Researchers and praconers are ang more neres n developng susanable garmen supply chans n recen mes. On he oher hand, he supply chan manager drops susanably obecves whle copng wh unexpeced naural and man-made dsrupon rss. Hence, supply chan managers are now ryng o develop susanable supply chans ha are smulaneously reslen enough o cope wh dsrupon rss. Owng o he mporance of he consdered ssue, hs sudy proposed a newor opmzaon model for a susanable and reslen supply chan newor by consderng susanably va emboded carbon fooprns and carbon emssons and reslence by consderng reslence ndex. In hs paper, nally, a possblsc fuzzy mul-obecve susanable and reslen supply chan newor model s developed for he garmen ndusry consderng economc, susanable, and reslence obecves. Secondly, a possblsc fuzzy lngusc wegh-based neracve soluon mehod s proposed. Fnally, a numercal case example s presened o show he applcably of he proposed model and soluon mehodology. Keywords: susanable supply chan; reslen supply chan; dsrupon rss; possblsc fuzzy opmzaon; mul-obecve opmzaon 1. Inroducon and Leraure Revew The exle and garmen supply chan nvolves several envronmenal ssues, ncludng hazardous polluans and wase managemen pracces. The garmen ndusry s envronmenally unfrendly due o hazardous polluans such as dyeng chemcals and carbon doxde emssons durng producon and ransporaons. Today, hese ssues are beng addressed by compulsory carbon fooprn axes on exle producs, susanably rules and gudelnes, Inernaonal Organzaon for Sandardzaon ISO) cerfcaon, and emergng rends for corporae socal responsbly [1]. Susanably s no he only prmary focus of supply chan o ncrease her performance, bu he rend shows ha susanably s gong o be sandard n he near fuure. On he oher hand, unceran dsrupon rss assocaed wh supply chans hnder an mplemenaon of he susanably obecve. Many auhors have proposed varous supply chan rs managemen sraeges o mnmze he mpac of dsrupon rss. Among hem, reslence s a new approach o desgn supply chan newors []. The mos wdely used defnon of supply chan reslence, proposed by Chrsopher and Pec [3], s he ably of a sysem o whsand and reurn o s orgnal or desred) sae afer beng dsruped. Pe, e al. [] explaned ha reslence faclaes a supply chan o reurn s orgnal performance afer dsrupons, preparng for unexpeced evens, and respondng o dsrupons. Mar, e al. [5] defned supply chan reslence as a mehod o reduce he severy and lelhood of supply chan dsrupon rss. Susanably 016, 8, 1038; do: /su

2 Susanably 016, 8, 1038 of Despe he mporance of reslence and susanable supply chan desgn, very few sudes are avalable n he leraure ha only dscusses reslence and susanably ssues n a supply chan conex. Accordng o Rose [6], he exreme dsrupons could badly affec he envronmen, whch dsrups he maor acves of supply chans. The maor barrer n developng he susanable supply chan newor s uncerany assocaed wh supply chan acves. Therefore, a susanable supply chan should be reslen and flexble enough o cope wh unceran dsrupons [7]. Ths requred o buld susanable supply chans whch are smulaneously reslen, agle, and lean o cope wh unceran dsrupon such as naural or man-made dsasers [8]. Recenly, Azevedo, e al. [9] dscussed he mporance of green and reslen supply chan managemen pracces n he auomove supply chan. They showed ha he reslen paradgm s consdered more mporan han he green paradgm due o s compeve advanage. The oher reason s ha green pracces are mposed exernally and s oblgaory. Govndan, e al. [10] dscussed he lnage of lean, agle, green and reslen pracces. Research showed ha lean, agle, green, and reslence pracces are mporan for auomove ndusry due o her ndvdual compeve advanages. Mar, Lee and Memon [] proposed newor opmzaon model whch smulaneously consdered boh susanably and reslence of he supply chan. They developed a mul-obecve newor opmzaon model based on goal programmng whch consders economc, susanable, and reslence obecves. Dsrupon of he supply chan newor leads o supply uncerany and s mporan o susanable supply chan performance. Frms ry o fnd alernae soluons o cope wh dsruped supply and mgh lose susanably arges. Therefore, s mporan o consder an unceran envronmen n he desgn of susanable and reslen supply chan newors. The above dscusson shows ha susanably s becomng a prmary focus of supply chans and reslence s a necessy o acheve he susanably arges. Thus, frms should fnd a beer way o manage her resources whle copng wh unexpeced dsrupon rss. Keepng n vew he saed problem, hs sudy proposes an negraed susanable and reslen supply chan newor consderng dsrupon rss. To do so, hs arcle proposes mul-obecve susanable and reslen supply chan opmzaon model for he garmen ndusry by consderng sochasc and recognve unceranes. In he garmen ndusry, here are sgnfcan opporunes o ncrease susanably by mang effecve producon and ransporaon decsons whch are drecly relaed o envronmenal emssons [1]. Addonally, hs sudy consders an expeced dsrupon cos obecve as a reslence merc o esmae locaon-specfc rss. Expeced dsrupon cos s a merc for evaluang he reslence of supply chan and defned as a loss of opporuny cos due o no meeng he demand on me durng dsrupon rss [11]. The lelhood of dsrupon rss a poenal locaons of supplers, manufacurng facles, and collecon cener s esmaed usng he Reslence Index RI) proposed by FMGlobal [1]. The Reslence Index s a daa-drven ool o evaluae he rss nheren n he counry based on nne ey drvers of supply chan rss.e., GDP per capa, Polcal rss, ol nensy, exposure o naural hazards, qualy of rs managemen, qualy of fre managemen, corrupon conrol, nfrasrucure, and local suppler qualy). RI s bound o scale from 0 o 100 represenng he lowes o hghes reslence. Furhermore, for he frs me, hs sudy consders he reverse supply chan newor desgn n buldng reslence due o s mporance n susanable supply chan. To he bes of auhors nowledge, hs research s one of he prmary wors usng possblsc programmng approach for a susanable and reslen supply chan newor desgn under sochasc and recognve unceranes and he leraure consderng hs approach n susanable supply chan newor desgn s sll scarce.. Mahemacal Model As dscussed earler, he focus of hs research s o desgn he garmen supply chan newor based on he rple radeoffs of economc, susanable, and reslen obecves. Thus, he problem ncludes mul-obecve opmzaon model ha should gve compromse soluon based on DMs preferences.

Fuzzy-based programmng echnques are hghly used n hs area because of her capably n esmaon and adusmen of he decson maer s sasfacon level of each obecve explcly [1]. In hs sudy, nally, he mehodology proposed by Jménez, e al. [15] s appled o conver he unceran model no an equvalen auxlary crsp model. The proposed unceran model n prevous secon assumes possblsc fuzzy parameers. Then he neracve fuzzy wegh, based soluon mehodology, s developed o solve he proposed susanable and reslen supply chan model. The seps of he proposed soluon mehodology are summarzed as follows: Sep 1. Conver fuzzy mul-obecve model no equvalen auxlary crsp model In hs sage, he proposed mul-obecve model s convered no an equvalen auxlary crsp model. Jménez, Arenas, Blbao and Rodrı [15] mehod used n hs sudy due o: ) s srong mahemacal formaon whch s based on expeced nerval and expeced value of fuzzy numbers o deal wh unceran parameers; and ) s suppor of any fuzzy membershp funcon such as rapezodal and rangular wh eher symmerc or asymmerc forms.

The unceran obecve funcons are convered no crsp forms usng expeced value defnon. In addon, he unceran consrans wll be convered no equvalen crsp forms usng expeced nerval defnon. Where, α represens he confdence level. The decson maers can choose level of confdence based on avalable nformaon and her percepon. Addonally, decson maers can vary value of α n order o generae dfferen radeoff soluons. In hs formulaon, α = 0.5 means ha he mos lely values of parameers are preferred, whereas α < 0.5 means model parameer values are beween pessmsc and mos lely values.

Sep. Conver mul-obecve model no sngle obecve Varous neracve approaches are proposed o solve mul-obecve problems. Selecon of a suable soluon mehodology for a ceran mul-obecve opmzaon problem s no easy, as has been made abundanly clear [16]. In hs sudy, he fuzzy lngusc wegh-based mehod s proposed by mprovng Werner s fuzzy and operaor mehod [17]. The proposed mehod aes advanage of boh Werner s and he fuzzy-weghed mehod. The deal of proposed mehod s gven as follows. In pracce, DMs feel comforable assgnng mporance of obecves n lngusc erms. In hs proposed mehod, he fuzzy lngusc varables are suggesed o assgn he mporance of obecves. Table 1 shows he fve-scale mporance level as rangular fuzzy number adoped from Wang and Lee [18].
