Construction of Regional Logistics Weighted Network Model and Its Robust optimization: Evidence from China

Abstract EN

In this paper, we construct a regional logistics model from a macroperspective.

First, based on the gravity model, the index of logistics attraction between cities is established as the weight of the model, and hence the regional logistics weighted model is constructed.

Next, we use the social network analysis method to analyze its structure and make specific recommendations for the construction of logistics networks.

Finally, we analyze the model’s response to random attacks and deliberate attacks.

From our study, it is found that when the failure nodes or edges reach a certain percentage, the regional logistics network will collapse on a large scale.

Therefore, it is important to optimization the threshold of the regional logistics network.

This clearly provides a new perspective for the study of the regional logistics networks.
