Study on the Importance of Subway Network Node Based on Underground Logistics System
The rapid development of e-commerce has promoted the development of the logistics industry. In order to relieve various pressures faced by aboveground logistics,it is an effective method to build underground logistics network by combining underground logistics with subway. Identifying the key stations in the underground logistics network is of great significance to improve the security and stability of the whole network,so it is crucial to evaluate the importance of the stations in the subway network based on the underground logistics system ( ULS) . Considering the topological index of station nodes in the urban subway network and the regional environmental index affecting the development of underground logistics,the entropy-TOPSIS algorithm is used to rank the comprehensive importance of subway stations. Wuhan subway at the end of 2022 is taken as the research object for case study analysis. The results show that most of the subway stations in the highest importance ranking are transfer stations and geographically located in the central area of Wuhan. Compared with single index,the evaluation results obtained by using this algorithm are more objective and comprehensive.
