This book offers an introduction to the ripple effect in the supply
chain for a broad audience comprising recent developments. The
chapters of this handbook are written by leading experts in supply
chain risk management and resilience. For the first time, the
chapters present in their synergy a multiple-faceted view of the
ripple effect in supply chains, while considering organization,
optimization, and informatics perspectives. Ripple effect describes
the impact of a disruption propagation on supply chain performance,
structural designs and operational parameters. The ripple effect
manifests when the impact of a disruption cannot be localized and
cascades along the supply chain. The resulting structural dynamics
can lead to capacity and demand fulfilment downscaling and
negatively influence the firm's financial and operational
performance. The book delineates major features of the ripple
effect and methodologies to mitigate the adverse impact of supply
chain disruption propagation and to recover in case of severe
disruptions. The book provides fresh insights for supply chain
management and engineering regarding the following questions: - In
what circumstance does one failure cause other failures? - Which
structures of the supply chain are especially susceptible to the
ripple effect? - What are the typical ripple effect scenarios and
what are the most efficient ways to respond them? Distinctive
Features: * It considers ripple effect in the supply chain from an
