Title: A Study on Influence Factors on the Flexibility of Reverse Logistics Network
Abstract: Based on a flexibility analysis with single enterprise,the enterprise alliance and the reverse logistics network,this paper gives the definition of reverse logistics network flexibility.Then it analyses the factors which influence the reverse logistics network flexibility from the external uncertainty(the uncertainty of recycling,return and recalled reverse logistics) and internal structure of reverse logistics network(the scale,the spatial arrangement and the relationship of the reverse logistics network node).As is revealed,the reverse logistics network flexibility can be promoted through pre-handlings,setting up reasonable nodes,and establishing the flexible cooperation mechanism.
