Firms are increasingly disclosing Scope 3 (supply chain) carbon emissions in addition to Scope 1-2 (direct and energy consumption) emissions. Two common Scope 3 emission assessments exist: Life-Cycle which encompasses emissions of all firms in the supply chain, and Cradle-to-Gate which encompasses emissions of all upstream firms. One can also conceptualize a Gate-to-Grave assessment which encompasses emissions of all downstream firms....

Landslides pose a serious hazard to communities living in dynamic landscapes. To better understand how the earth moves we have investigated processes from the nano-scale to the mega-scale of our greatest mountain ranges. We use these observations to improve our knowledge of how earth materials become unstable and create safer communities....

This presentation discusses the management of emergency logistics for hazardous materials, with a special focus on the impact of possible system disruptions on system performance. More particularly, we first present a time-varying risk assessment method that takes into consideration the population dynamism. Then the two-stage robust optimization approach is employed to formulate two mixed-integer programming models, namely the basic and expanded unit commitment models, for managing a reliable em...
