Managing a complex global supply chain requires astrategic assessment of the various factors that can affect decisions on procurement, manufacturing,warehousing, logistics, distribution, and sales. Co-written by renowned experts in global supply chain management, this book presents a systematic, structured approach to evaluating ten global regions with respect to their supply chain activities.
The maturity level for each region is assessed usingthe EPIC framework--Economy, Politics, Infrastructure,and Competence. Managers of supply chains can use this framework and the exclusive data in this practical, timely resource to identify the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of the different global regions and determine their supply chain strategies accordingly.
Global Supply Chains analyzes ten regions:
<ul>
<li>East Asia</li>
<li>South Asia</li>
<li>Southeast Asia</li>
<li>Australia</li>
<li>The Middle East and North Africa (MENA)</li>
<li>Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA)</li>
<li>Western Europe</li>
<li>Central and Eastern Europe</li>
<li>North and Central America</li>
<li>South America</li>
</ul>

Salt and Sediment Dynamics presents a thorough treatment of salt and sediment interactions and the implications of such interactions for sub-salt exploration. The book emphasizes and utilizes recent discoveries on many aspects of salt and sediment interactions, provides the theoretical framework for interpreting the increasing amount of available data on salt and sediments, and develops a self-consistent dynamical evolution model of salt structures and their interaction with surrounding sediments. The model developed in the text consists of an evolving salt structure that influences sediment motion with self-consistent evolution of sediments and salt shape. The resulting stress and strain in the sediments and the thermal focusing effects of the salt are evaluated. The salt and sediments in the model are consistent with observed geometries, a result of having freely adjustable, observation-controlled model parameters. In addition, the book describes case histories in a variety of geological settings, thus explaining aspects of the genesis and development of salt structures, of their impact on sedimentary structural evolution, and of the impact of sediments on salt masses. The techniques developed by the authors expand the current state of knowledge regarding the evolution and dynamics of salt structures and increase the potential for effective sub-salt hydrocarbon exploration.
