Qu, W. (author), Rezaei, J. (author), Maknoon, M.Y. (author), Tavasszy, Lorant (author)Hinterland freight transportation is managed according to a pre-designed schedule. In daily operations, unexpected uncertainties cause deviation from the original plan. Thus replanning is needed to deal with the perturbations and complete the transportation tasks. This paper proposes a mixed-integer programming model to re-plan hinterland...journal article 2019

Pirannejad, A. (author), Janssen, M.F.W.H.A. (author), Rezaei, J. (author)Since 2003, the United Nations has introduced the E-Participation Index (EPI), the first index to evaluate e-participation initiatives worldwide. This index has been subject to criticism for not representing the society side of e-participation initiatives. The EPI assesses e-participation initiatives on the government side only and neglects...journal article 2019

Onstein, A.T.C. (author), Ektesaby, Mehrnaz (author), Rezaei, J. (author), Tavasszy, Lorant (author), van Damme, Dick A. (author)The design of a spatial distribution structure is of strategic importance for companies, to meet required customer service levels and to keep logistics costs as low as possible. Spatial distribution structure decisions concern distribution channel layout–i.e. the spatial layout of the transport and storage system–as well as distribution...journal article 2019

Rezaei, J. (author), Ortt, J.R. (author), Trott, Paul (author)Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to examine high-tech small-to-medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) supply chain partnerships. Partnerships are considered at the level of business function rather than the entire organisation. Second, the drivers of SMEs to engage in partnerships are assessed to see whether functions engage in partnerships for...journal article 2018

Rezaei, J. (author), van Roekel, Wilco S. (author), Tavasszy, Lorant (author)Globalization has led to an increased need for international freight transportation and, with it, international logistics. To measure the performance of countries in terms of logistics, in 2007 the World Bank created the Logistics Performance Index (LPI), which uses six core indicators to rank countries with regard to their overall logistics...journal article 2018

Rezaei, J. (author), Kothadiya, Oshan (author), Tavasszy, Lorant (author), Kroesen, M. (author)The baggage handling system is a crucial part of ground handling operations, which significantly contributes to the overall satisfaction of passengers. Although several studies have investigated airline service quality, little attention has been paid to this crucial part of the system. This study proposes the SERVQUAL model to assess the...journal article 2018

Groenendijk, Laura (author), Rezaei, J. (author), Correia, Gonçalo (author)The quality of a transit node is determined by the experience of travellers. However, the reference model for classifying the quality of a transit node, the so-called Node-Place model, does not consider this important dimension (experience). In this paper, we propose a method to add quality from a traveller's perspective to the Node-Place (NP...journal article 2018

Rezaei, J. (author), Fallah Lajimi, Hamidreza (author)Supplier segmentation is one of the most important supply chain-related activities for most firms working with multiple suppliers. Purchasing portfolio matrix (PPM) is a segmentation method that considers two dimensions (profit impact and supply risk) against which the materials purchased by the company are classified. Despite its popularity,...journal article 2018

Rezaei, J. (author), van Wulfften Palthe, Linde (author), Tavasszy, Lorant (author), Wiegmans, B. (author), van der Laan, Frank (author)Purpose: Port performance and port choice have been treated as separate streams of research. This hampers the efforts of ports to anticipate on and respond to possible future changes in port choice by shippers, freight forwarders and carriers. The purpose of this paper is to develop and demonstrate a port performance measurement methodology,...journal article 2018

Rezaei, N. (author), Isabella, O. (author), Vroon, Zeger (author), Zeman, M. (author)A 3-D optical modelling was calibrated to calculate the light absorption and the total reflection of fabricated CIGS solar cells. Absorption losses at molybdenum (Mo) / CIGS interface were explained in terms of plasmonic waves. To quench these losses, we assumed the insertion of a lossless dielectric spacer between Mo and CIGS, whose optical...journal article 2018
