Analysis of the Choice of Transportation Mode for Cross-border Supply Chain Based on the Belt and Road

Abstract

This paper studies the transportation mode selection of cross-border supply chain under the “the Belt and Road†to find the most suitable transportation mode for cross-border transportation. At first, the overall priority of marine transport and railway transportation is analyzed by analytic hierarchy process, but the analytic hierarchy process has shortcomings and limitations. Therefore, by introducing fuzzy analytic hierarchy process, the complexity of judging the relative importance of the target is simplified, by using the ambiguity of the judgment matrix and the simplicity of the calculation, the deficiencies of the analytic hierarchy method are solved. This paper chooses the optimization idea by considering the cost, running time, transportation capacity and flexibility as the main target transportation mode, according to the characteristics of quantitative and qualitative indicators, the fuzzy hierarchy analysis method is used to establish the hierarchical structure model. Finally, the fuzzy consistent matrix is established to calculate and analyze the optimal solution.
