Abstract

"This research develops a new framework for generating emergent assembly supply chain networks and modelling cascading failure as random disruptions are applied to assess system robustness. Robustness is a network’s ability to withstand the negative effects of disruption. It is an essential component for improving a firm’s supply chain resilience."
