Economic, social, and environmental factors all play a role in the CE. Also, logistics activities are critical parts of the CE. Hence, this study's goal is to create a framework for evaluating organizations' CE logistics performance. The main contribution of the study is the creation of a framework to assess the circularity performance, including various logistics activities, and measure the performance of logistics activities. To establish a list of criteria, 30 experts were interviewed. The criteria were ranked using fuzzy statements. The selected multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) method, data envelopment analysis, is applied using IBM ILOG CPLEX Optimization Studio version 20.1.0.

As it strives to include robots in people's daily activities and work, the introduction of concepts such as I5.0 is a step forward in enhancing human-machine interaction and provides some possibilities and challenges for firms. Therefore, this article mainly focuses on studying and concretely examining the challenges faced by businesses transitioning from I4.0 to I5.0 by providing case examples from the textile and apparel supply chain. After a detailed review of the current literature related to the I5.0 challenges, the I5.0 challenges were listed in general. Then, the fuzzy Decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory approach has adopted into the challenges to reveal causal interactions between them thus, prioritizing the substantial challenges to be focused on to influence the entire textile and apparel supply chain.

Moreover, the location of the collection center has a crucial role in sustainable supply chains. Therefore, in this study, a framework was proposed to identify the location of sustainable collection centers for e-waste. The criteria set includes 3 main criteria, and 23 sub-criteria, and 7 different location options. The main criteria cover economic, social, and environmental criteria, which are organized as the Triple-Bottom-Line dimensions. Alternatives are Manisa, Menemen, Gaziemir, Kemalpaşa, Torbalı, Çiğli, and Akhisar. Fuzzy Best-Worst Method (BWM) and Fuzzy TOPSIS methods are used to calculate the weights of criteria and rankings of the alternatives, respectively. Transportation cost was found as the most important criterion for sustainable collection center selection, followed by collection cost, storage/holding cost, land cost, greenhouse gas emissions, energy cost, tax, and investment cost, respectively. Among other alternatives, Çiğli was found as the best alternative for sustainable collection center, followed by Gaziemir, and Manisa. Managerial implications were presented based on the findings.

After reviewing customers’ needs, company decides to produce a new product. New product model will be produced in the one of the existing lines in the plant. Most suitable line determined according to other product models job sequences’ similarity with new product models’. After the analysis of the production process, the changes and possible constraints for the 5th assembly line are determined. After that, solution procedures are developed, the required calculations are made and implemented. The solutions are developed by various techniques and approaches such as Bubble diagram, Value Stream Mapping, Lean Production, Line Balancing. Particularly, mathematical model, which is solved by IBM ILOG Optimization Studio programmed comprehensive analysis with a simulation model, which is conducted by Arena Simulation software, are presented in this study.

ESS (electronic scooter-sharing) is a new model of transportation that provides personalized and flexible mobility services, and it is particularly useful for short or last-mile trips. However, there is a lack of research on the barriers to the adoption of ESS from the customer perspective in emerging economies like Turkey. Therefore, this paper adopts a case study approach to reveal the barriers to the scooter-sharing system by considering the customer perspective. The research adds to the existing body of knowledge by offering unique perspectives on the obstacles that hinder the adoption of ESS in developing economies.
