摘要：This study considers single supplier supplying
single buyer with finished products packed in returnable
transport items (RTIs) to facilitate safe transport to the
customer. Empty RTIs are collected at the buyer and returned
to the supplier. The return time of RTIs is considered to be
stochastic in this study because of unforeseen events, such as
damages of RTIs or labor shortage to empty RTIs. We
formulate the problem of integrating the flow of both the
finished product and RTIs and minimizing the supply chain
expected total costs as a non-linear program. Secondly, it
presents the results of this study in which the behavior of the
model is analyzed. In addition, we add fuzzy to this study in
order to acquire a more realistic result because of the uncertain
environments.
