Abstract: This paper proposes a novel decision-making framework to design a resilient hub network under operational and disruption risks. The proposed framework accounts for disruption risks via considering three primary resilience dimensions involving proactive capability, reactive capability, and design quality. Also, a new objective function is introduced to assess the resilience level of the designed hub network. A hybrid solution approach is proposed to solve such a multi-facet complex problem efficiently. Finally, several in-depth analyses are conducted to validate the proposed solution approach by which some managerial insights are also provided.
