In view of the robustness problem that affects the stability of shipping network evolu-tion,this paper takes shipping ports as the main body and complex networks as the theoretical ba-sis to explore the structural characteristics of shipping networks and analyze the changes in robust-ness under different attack modes at different stages of shipping network evolution.According to the BA scale-free network principle,the interaction mechanism of different attributes between ports is made explicit by using a multiagent simulation method.The changes in port relations in the shipping networks promote network evolution,and the network evolution conforms to the charac-teristics of scale-free networks.The robustness of shipping network evolution is different in the face of different attack modes at different stages,which has great reference significance for related research.
