Optimal pricing and complex analysis with carbon emission reduction preference in an apparel supply chain

Abstract

In this paper, we study the supply chain competition models that consider consumers' low-carbon consumption preferences. By constructing the supply chain of manufacturers and retailers with different market positions, two game types, decentralized decision making and centralized decision making are proposed, and the static and dynamic game methods are combined respectively for research. Although research has found that centralized decision making is always better than decentralized decision making under the static game mode, when considering the long-term dynamic evolutionary game, the average profit of decentralized decision making may be better than the average profit of centralized decision making. Moreover, there are complex dynamic characteristics under dynamic games. In order to fully understand the nature of the dynamic game systems, we discussed the stability, local bifurcation, and global bifurcation of these dynamic systems. It is found that although dynamic game systems may lose stability with changes in parameters, they are better than static game results in some cases, this is beneficial to decision-makers and has practical management significance.

Location Optimization of Fresh Agricultural Products Cold Chain Distribution Center under Carbon Emission Constraints

“…The cold chain is needed in various parts of the storage and transportation of fresh agricultural products, and devices such as cold storage, refrigerated trucks, and automated temperature control lead to large quantities of carbon emissions. This paper divided the carbon emissions during the whole process of cold chain warehousing and distribution into static carbon emissions of cold chain distribution centers and dynamic carbon emissions during refrigerated vehicle transportation [40,41].…”
