To enable planning and early reaction efforts, it is important to identify the nations most at risk from COVID-19's health and humanitarian effects, which could exceed present national response capabilities. INFORM COVID-19 Risk Index developed by European Commission is one of the initiatives to meet the aforementioned need. However, the Index has 40 conflicting and comprehensive indicators (e.g., health system capacity, hygiene, vulnerability) and different countries that lead to a need for multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) approaches. This paper offers an integrated MCDM approach with two phases to re-assess the countries' COVID-19 risks based on INFORM COVID-19 Risk Index. In the first phase, the 40 indicators are prioritized using the Entropy-based multi-choice best-worst method (MC-BWM) to provide multiple viewpoints for the preferences values. In the second phase, 29 countries from different geographical regions are ranked using the COPRAS (Complex Proportional Assessment) method. Applying these three methods together on the COVID-19 risk assessment of countries is the most significant novelty for the relevant literature. The proposed approach has undergone a thorough comparative evaluation with the released INFORM COVID-19 Risk Index, and recommendations are provided based on different scenario analyses.

In recent years, the interest of disassembly line has increased owing to the economic reasons and increase of environmental awareness. The balancing of the disassembly line is one of the factors affecting directly the performance of the process. Companies with a line used effectively can gain many advantages in terms of economic aspect and it facilitates competition the companies with others. Moreover, uncertainties end-of-life products characteristics and quantity of supply/demand causes reassigned of task and altering cycle time. Rebalancing of disassembly line is required in this situation. In this study, a novel mixed integer programming model is proposed. Firstly, disassembly line balance is created, and then according to the given new supply, tasks are reselected and reassigned to the workstations. A real case study is presented. The generated test problems are also analyzed using proposed mathematical model. Through the analysis of rebalancing the existing disassembly line, it has been identified that an existing balance might have been changed to accommodate changes in the desired output rate in order to cope up with the variation of the cycle time.
