Abstract:A logistics network consists of an infrastructure network for transport facilities and a service or virtual network for transport or logistics tasks. In order to theoretically analyze the chain reaction of emergency events that occurred on the logistics network with the complicated propagation mechanism of multi-layer interdependent net-works, a cascading failure model on the interdependent network is proposed. This model described the interaction between the nodes on the same or the different networks. And it was used to analyze the delay time of logistics business caused by the node’s failure on an interdependent network. The simulation results show that the delay time caused by the failure in an interdependent network is longer than that in a single network; however, it takes less time to lead to collapse in an interdependent network than in a single network. © 2016, ICIC Express Letters Office.
