Stability of the Supply Chain Using System Dynamics Simulation and the Accumulated Deviations from Equilibrium

We propose and demonstrate a new methodology to stabilize systems with complex dynamics like the supply chain. This method is based on the accumulated deviations from equilibrium (ADE). It is most beneficial for controlling system dynamic models characterized by multiple types of delays, many intera...
