Assessment of the Resilience of a Complex Network for Crude Oil Transportation on the Maritime Silk Road

“…It shows that the network is scale-free, that is, nodes with a larger degree value occupy a smaller proportion of the network, and nodes with a smaller degree value occupy a larger proportion. With the help of Bradford's law [54], we divide the ports of the Maritime Silk Road crude oil transportation network into a core layer, semi-core layer, and non-core layer. The number of routes contained in each structure level is the same, and the hierarchical classification of ports is shown in Table Ⅳ.…”
