In this study, we propose a simulation-based approach to determine the demands of relief supplies until the governmental and/or central humanitarian organizations (i.e., the Turkish Red Crescent-TRC) reach to the affected area. We then develop a plan to allocate the so-called temporary-disaster-response (TDR) facilities and distribute the relief supplies stored in these facilities. An earthquake case study is constructed for the Yildirim district of Bursa-Turkey including 64 neighborhoods. Corresponding relief supplies demands are determined by analyzing the time it takes for the TRC to reach the affected area using the simulation model with two different system designs. The two-phase integer program is then used to develop a pre-positioning plan, i.e., allocation of TDR facilities and distribution of relief supplies.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessTransportationDisaster operations managementRelief supplies distributionFacility allocationSimulationInteger programmingOperations managementOr/ms researchEvacuationProceedings Paper0004046333000252-s2.0-8501943228324525422TransportationTransportation science & technologyHumanitarian Logistics; Disaster Relief; Disaster
