Introduction: Despite significant technological developments in today’s world, it is still plagued by all manners of natural and man-made disasters (such as earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, avalanches, war, terrorism, political unrest, etc.) which not only slow the process of sustainability development but also, when neglected, can inflict terrible and sometimes irreparable damage to a community’s well-being and prosperity. This issue requires an integrated logistics system that is scientifically and comprehensively designed to meet the needs of crisis management; a system with clear and predefined processes in which all components have predefined functions. Providing aid to the injured is one of the most important stages of crisis management, which must be planned before the accident because timely and efficient aid will greatly reduce human and financial losses. In order not to be surprised during natural crises, proper planning should be done in advance and under normal conditions. Humanitarian logistics (HL) is considered one of the most important issues of disaster operations and management. However, the operations required for humanitarian logistics must be sustainable enough to function well under the uncertain and complex nature of disasters and crises. Many difficulties in the pre-disaster and post-disaster phases bring both human and economic losses, and practically ensuring the efficient design of humanitarian logistics operations seems essential. In this study, considering the importance of planning before disasters and also the mathematical optimization model for locating facilities and relief centers, articles published between the years 2004 and 2023 to examine optimization models in the field of humanitarian logistics have been studied. The purpose of the research is to familiarize with the current research process of humanitarian logistics, especially the optimization problem used to achieve various goals of the location of humanitarian logistics facilities and to provide future research directions.
Methods: In order to get an overview of the research fields and to know what articles exist in this field and who has done research in this field and other more comprehensive information, using the Web of Science website, the keywords that are considered in this research, have been searched. Regarding facility location issues, all types of resource location problems are included in this study, and the papers under study are classified into two categories based on deterministic and non-deterministic models.
Results and discussion: In the deterministic models table, the type of objective function, decision variables, model type, and solution methods are included. In non-deterministic models, this study primarily covers the stochastic programming approach and robust optimization. Also, in the non-deterministic model’s table, the type of objective function, decision variables, non-deterministic parameters of the model, type of uncertainty, type of model, and solution methods are included. According to the reviewed articles and also by referring to the presented literature review table, it is possible to find the points that have not been addressed or have been addressed less.
Conclusions: Finally, this study can be useful for researchers in understanding the current trend of the optimization problem in humanitarian logistics and modeling techniques. Researchers can easily find out the research gap and help society through their research.
