Research area(s)

My research is focused on pre-positioning and procurement strategies of relief supplies at three-tier supply chain. Considering the risk of supply disruption, the supply capacity of critical raw materials, the production and conversion capacity of manufacturers, and the impact of government subsidy strategies on the supply of relief supplies, and taking into account the lack of critical raw materials during COVID-19 and China's response decision-making practices, to improve supply capacity and satisfaction rate of relief supplies. The main method used is game theory. Accepted and under review journals include Computers & Industrial Engineering, Chinese Journal of Operations Research and Management, and Chinese Journal of Safety Science.
