Öğe Analysis of industry 4.0 applications for Turkish agriculture(EDP Sciences, 2024) Temimhan, Damla; Ekinci, Esra; Kazancoglu, YigitThis article presents analysis of industry 4.0 applications for the Turkish agriculture sector. Applications were picked and explained. However industry 4.0 applications were explained in the literature, there are not adequate studies indicate the relationship and impact of the technologies on the agriculture sector. Also to adapt these applications, most related and solution oriented applications needs to be picked by decision makers. Study aims to evaluate and scale alternatives using interpretive structural modelling method of Multicriteria Decision Aiding. Experts are reviewed the correlation between technologies to consider and apply ISM method. The By applying this method ordering and convenient applications will be ranked and review could be interpreted in simple way. © The Authors, published by EDP Sciences, 2024.Öğe Building sustainable resilient supply chain in retail sector under disruption(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2024) Ekinci, Esra; Sezer, Muruvvet Deniz; Mangla, Sachin Kumar; Kazancoglu, YigitBlockchain technologies have played a crucial role in transforming the retail industry, leading to remarkable advancements in recent times. Its pivotal role in managing risky environments by offering preventive and proactive measures cannot be overstated. The research contribution lies in introducing a set of criteria for assessing the adoption of Blockchain technology, specifically designed to evaluate the resilience of the retail sector. This study aims to ensure the establishment of a sustainable, resilient supply chain across diverse retail categories, particularly in the face of uncertain circumstances. A hybrid decision-making approach that combines the BestWorst Method (BWM) and Fuzzy TODIM has been employed to achieve these objectives. This study encompasses various types of retail companies to assess and compare their resilience levels by adopting Blockchain technology. The results of this study robustly suggest that speciality retailers with well-established, long-term partnerships are more predisposed to embrace and leverage the capabilities of Blockchain technologies. Conversely, discount retailers in Turkey face various challenges that impede their effective integration of Blockchain technologies. These challenges encompass collaborating with suppliers on short-term agreements and the unavailability of product tracking, among other factors. As a result, the outcomes of this study offer valuable insights for retailers in the sector, suggesting that they should consider modifying their operational strategies to better align with the adoption and integration of Blockchain technologies in the future.Öğe Impact of epidemic outbreaks (COVID-19) on global supply chains: A case of trade between Turkey and China(Elsevier Science Inc, 2023) Kazançogğu, Yiğit; Ekinci, Esra; Mangla, Sachin Kumar; Sezer, Mürüvvet Deniz; Özbiltekin-Pala, MelisaCOVID-19 has negative impacts on supply chain operations between countries. The novelty of the study is to evaluate the sectoral effects of COVID-19 on global supply chains in the example of Turkey and China, considering detailed parameters, thanks to the developed System Dynamics (SD) model. During COVID-19 spread, most of the countries decided long period of lockdowns which impacted the production and supply chains. This had also caused decrease in capacity utilizations and industrial productions in many countries which resulted with imbalance of maritime trade between countries that increased the freight costs. In this study, cause and effect relations of trade parameters, supply chain parameters, demographic data and logistics data on disruptions of global supply chains have been depicted for specifically Turkey and China since China is the biggest importer of Turkey. Due to this disruption, mainly exports from Turkey to China has been impacted in food, chemical and mining sectors. This study is helpful to plan in which sectors; the actions should be taken by the government bodies or managers. Based on findings of this study, new policies such as onshore activities should consider to overcome the logistics and supply chain disruptions in global supply chains. This study has been presented beneficial implications for the government, policymakers and academia.Öğe Prioritizing hazardous areas for sustainable industrial tape production: An integrated FMEA - MCDM approach(EDP Sciences, 2024) Yapar, Gizem; Ekinci, Esra; Türsel Eliiyi, DenizIndustrial adhesive tape production is a critical sector that must meet high quality standards and customer expectations. This study presents a comprehensive approach to identify, prioritize and prevent failures in the industrial adhesive tape production process using FMEA and VIKOR methods. With FMEA analysis, possible failure types, causes and effects in the production process were identified. Then, using the VIKOR method, failure types were prioritized according to criteria such as severity, probability of occurrence and detectability. In this way, critical failure types were identified and preventive actions were developed. The results of the study make significant contributions to reducing production failures and improving product quality in the industrial adhesive tape industry. The integration of FMEA and VIKOR methods allows failures to be systematically analyzed and effective preventive measures to be taken. The proposed approach provides a model that can also be applied in similar industrial sectors. © The Authors, published by EDP Sciences, 2024.
