Abstract

In order to solve the problems of mismatch between transportation resources and order volume in logistics transportation, we propose a cooperative pattern called sharing transportation to solve this problems. In this pattern, several logistics enterprises or alliances cooperate with each other and share transportation resources to achieve the goal of reducing costs and increasing income. In this paper, we set the application scene of sharing transportation to the section from the distribution center to the service outlets in the city. We first put forward the judgment function in the analysis model of cooperative pattern, and the possible cooperative pattern is divided into three kinds by constructing and solving the replication dynamic equation. Then we proposed the income allocation model by considering the functions of order quantity and overall income. Moreover, the proposed models are extended to the multi-agent game situation to realize the sharing transportation of multiple enterprises. Finally, we use the example simulation and sensitivity analysis to verify the rationality of the model. This paper provides a new idea for how to integrate the surplus resources to increase the profit in the process of logistics transportation.
