Abstract :
In this paper, we develop a model of shipbuilding supply chain network, including three tiers: raw materials and accessory products suppliers, shipbuilding centers (i.e. shipyard), the ship-owner. In the normal course of shipbuilding, production is mainly carried out by meeting the needs of the end-user (i.e. the ship-owner). Under these conditions, decision-makers are analyzed in target, at last the optimization of the model by using the theory of variational inequalities and the numerical example are given.
