Research on layout optimization of logistics network of metropolitan area based on hub-And-spoke theory

Abstract

In order to give full play to the role of regional logistics in the regional economic development of the metropolitan area, a kind of hub-And-spoke regional logistics network based on hub-And-spoke model was established, which has the characteristics of hub-And-spoke network scale economy, scope economy, density economy and structure economy. Seventeen technical and economic indicators are sorted out from regional economy, industrial and commercial development, transportation infrastructure development and logistics industry development, and 35 counties and districts in the Capital metropolitan area are used as the research objects in 2020. The model is used to determine the network layout among node cities and to optimize the logistics network in the Capital metropolitan area.
