Use of Systems Dynamics in Reverse Logistics: A Bibliometric Analysis

Abstract

This article aims to perform a literature review on the models and applications of system dynamics, through bibliometrics. We examined 25 articles, retrieved from three international databases. The results show the most relevant articles, the main authors, and the most relevant keywords and journals on the subject. It was concluded that the authors with the greatest number of articles produce co-authored knowledge, and there appears to be a common core of research focused on the study of strategies, methodologies, planning and sustainability of the supply chain, mainly in the production of electronic equipment.
