Work carried out as part of my M2 internship at IIASA in Austria. This work aimed to study the impact of local production disruptions on global supply chains and the resulting indirect losses. With global markets being interconnected, local disturbances can lead to global repercussions. The model used as a basis for this work, called DisruptSCT, simulates economic flows on transport networks and allows the study of the impact of shocks.
This work is the subject of an ongoing publication.
