Location Model for Double-Hierarchy Distribution Network
Publication: International Conference on Transportation Engineering 2007
Abstract
There is a multilayer structure in the city logistics system, but the former single hierarchy location model can't embody the dynamic relation in different layers. A location model for double hierarchy distribution nodes is projected on the basis of Baumol—Wolfe models in this paper. The key of the model is to consider the transferring distribution from large-scale to small-scale nodes, and to jointly locate the logistics park nodes and center nodes. The heuristic algorithm is applied to the model, including designing feasible projects and linearizing the model by computing the marginal cost.
