Abstract

Hub-and-spoke network is an important network structure in modern logistics field, which can effectively improve the transportation efficiency of logistics industry. Hub congestion and failure cannot be ignored in hub-and-spoke network, affecting the operation efficiency of hub-and-spoke network. At the same time, with the vast market prospect attracting the continuous influx of capital, there is excessive competition in the industry, leading to the irrational use of resources. In this context, the design problem of single allocation hub-and-spoke network considering capacity selection under competitive environment is studied. To solve this problem, a two-layer programming model is constructed. The upper layer is the leader’s mixed integer programming model about the hub layout scheme, and the lower layer is the followers’ mixed integer programming model about their own hub layout scheme after observing the leader’s behavior. Due to the complexity of solving the two-layer programming model, in order to reduce the computational complexity and ensure the quality of the solution, a variable neighborhood search algorithm is designed to solve the two-layer programming model. The results show: the number of hub, the order of decision making, and whether to take into account the behavior of competitors will affect the hub location scheme, capacity decision and market share of market competition participants.
