Many people regard it impossible to calculate logistics cost in the enterprise by single-track system unless reforming Chinese current business cost accounting system. Consequently, two-track system should be adopted in calculating logistics cost. That is to say, it is necessary to establish Secondary Accounts of logistics cost in order to obtain logistics cost information, which will bring abo...

Based on the introduction of the concepts of logistics and logistics center, this paper analyzed the status and problems of Jilin Province’s logistics center, and proposed the steps, principles and factors for site selection of logistics center. Then by listing and comparing nine kinds of logistics center site selection method, including Analytic Hierarchy Process, Cluster Algorithm, Genetic Al...

The field of logistics education is rather colorful. The range of possible topics is huge and so each curriculum has unique approach towards which topic areas to emphasize and which to treat briefly or even omit. There is only little effective standardization in logistics education. This study examines the content of 42 undergraduate logistics curricula in Europe via cluster analysis, with a go...

the performance of a forced-liquid vertical tubular loop bioreactor (vtlb), a forced-liquid horizontal tubular loop bioreactor (htlb) and a gas-induced external airlift loop bioreactor (ealb) were compared for production of biomass from natural gas. hydrodynamic characteristics and mass transfer coefficients were determined as functions of design parameters, physical properties of gases as well...

The urge to remanufacture and address environmental concerns in various industrial processes has drawn the attention of academics as well practitioners towards Closed-loop Supply Chain Networks (CLSC). Although everchanging complex external factors including social economic ones, adversely impact sustainable development closed-loop supply chain networks. basic aim research is optimize functioni...

With the rapid development of e-commerce, customer demand for diversity and timeliness has also increased, in fact, B2C e-commerce business lead higher requirement for logistics service. At the same time, the aviation logistics has become a new growth point of China's logistics transportation development, airport logistics construction and development has become an important force to promote re...

Drawing on a new and comprehensive measure of logistics quality, our gravity model suggests logistics in the exporting and partner-country can have an important impact on bilateral exports. A one standard deviation improvement in the exporter’s logistics quality, which for example would improve Gabon to the level of Guinea, would raise exports by almost 60%. Landlocked countries’ exports depend...

Sustainable and green logistics concepts are a major trend in global supply chains. An important research question in this context is the topic of a possible interdependence between green logistics measures and overall volatility in supply chains, discussed in logistics literature e.g. as ‘bullwhip effect’. This research paper therefore tries to give an overview about existing knowledge regardi...
