Abstract :
Based on the theory of complex network, this paper focuses on the network planning of logistics nodes for strategic supply chain and proposes a practical mathematical modeling framework that captures many practical aspects of network design problems simultaneously but which have not received adequate attention in the existing literatures. Moreover, capacity expansion and reduction scenarios are also analyzed as well as modular capacity shifts. So this is of great importance for the research of strategic supply chain systems.
