Abstract

This research proposes a sustainable automotive manufacturing supply chain design model that integrates sustainable development into decision-making and balances the triple bottom line. A mixed integer linear model with multiple echelons, product types and energy modes is proposed. The model coordinates economic efficiency, environmental pollution, and social responsibility, and a method for standardizing and integrating the multiple optimization objectives is introduced. To address demand uncertainty, a deep neural network-based forecasting method is developed. It accurately predicts market demand by combining multidimensional influencing factors and historical demand. To solve the proposed model, a multinomial tree representation-based variable neighborhood search algorithm is designed. An adaptive mechanism is adopted to improve its search efficiency in the solution space. Experiments based on real data from the automotive manufacturing industry verify the proposed framework. The results show that the framework efficiently and effectively solves the sustainable automotive manufacturing supply chain design decisions with high solution quality. The framework provides useful managerial insights for decision-makers.
