Research on Self-Organization in Resilient Recovery of Cluster Supply Chains

Abstract EN

An effective way to deal with high-risk and low-probability disruptions is to create a resilient cluster supply chain, in which the study of resilience lies in its recovery mechanism when failures occur.

First, the paper describes the representation method of cluster supply chain resilience.

Second, a cluster supply chain network structure generation model is proposed.

And based on cascading effect model, it makes analysis of dynamic evolution process when cluster supply chain failure happens.

Then it focuses on the self-organization characteristic, which contributes to cluster supply chain emergence overall resilient recovery through local self-organization reconstruction behavior.

We also make theoretical analysis of cluster supply chain network characteristics and its effect on the resilience, which helps to illustrate that the root of vulnerability lies in cascading failure while self-organization is the key to resilient recovery.

Besides, with the study of self-organization characteristic, it provides theoretical guidance for local control and further achievement of overall resilient optimization.
