Decision framework for location and selection of container multimodal hubs: A case in china under the belt and road initiative
College of Transportation Engineering, Dalian Maritime University, Dalian 116026, China |
The location and selection of logistics nodes that facilitate the China Railway Express and rail-sea intermodal transportation has received increasing attention in China under the Belt and Road Initiative. The objective is to solve problems caused by the increasing number of origin cities opening international trains, such as disorderly competition, insufficient cargoes and low overall coordination. This study screens 22 cities as candidate Chinese international container multimodal hubs (CICMHs) in consideration of the actual situation of China's trade transportation. Thirteen indicators are screened using the information contribution rate-information substitutability method. Then, a comprehensive evaluation model is proposed to evaluate the candidate CICMHs and rank them. The model is based on the extended grey relational analysis-technique for order preference similar to ideal solution in combination with prospect theory. Chongqing, Guangzhou, Shanghai, Wuhan, Chengdu, Xi'an, Nanjing, Tianjin, Zhengzhou and Dalian are selected as the CICMHs. Moreover, a sensitivity analysis of the index weight fluctuations and decision-makers' preference and a comparative analysis of different decision-making methods are performed. The robustness and stability of the proposed model are demonstrated. This study can support the location and selection of CICMHs and expand the methods and applications in the decision-making field.

Methods | Advantages | Limitations |
AHP | Flexible, concise, easy to calculate | Does not consider the interaction between indicators |
TOPSIS | Can measure the proximity between alternative and ideal solutions | Cannot distinguish vertical line nodes in positive and negative ideal solutions |
GRA | Can measure the similarity degree of curve shapes between sequences | Does not consider the closeness of the sequence and the directionality of the numerical value |
ELECTRE | Applicable when incomparable substitutes exist | Needs many parameters defined by decision-makers, and the calculation process is cumbersome |
PROMETHEE | Can avoid information loss by focusing on various properties of attributes | Fails to consider DMí »s risk aversion psychology |
VIKOR | Considers the maximum benefit of the group and minimum regret of the individual | The evaluation of uncertainty factors is unsatisfactory |
TODIM | Can reflect DMí»s evasion of losses and risk psychology | Regression coefficient is not clearly defined, and evaluation results vary with the DMs |
DEMATEL | Can avoid consistency errors due to too many comparison times | Cannot reflect the fuzziness of decision information and the subjectivity of DMs |
BWM | Can reduce the number of comparisons and provide comparisons with consistency, leading to reliable results | Needs to be scored by experts with certain subjectivity; DMsí» confidence in their comparisons is not considered |
