“…The transportation infrastructure construction strategy generated by the computer simulation is very different from the strategy obtained by traditional network analysis. In traditional network analysis research, the transportation infrastructure connecting the central cities has a greater probability of prioritising construction (Schadschneider et al, 2015;Angulo et al, 2014;Liang et al, 2018;Luan et al, 2020). Through the investigation of the current situation of the transportation infrastructure network in Sichuan Province, this study found that the Sichuan transportation network is centred on Chengdu where there are currently 4 high-speed railways, 8 ordinary railways and 14 highways connecting Chengdu.…”

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to propose a method that can calculate the transportation infrastructure network service capacity enhancement given by planned transportation infrastructure projects construction. Managers can sequence projects more rationally to maximize the construction effectiveness of infrastructure investments.Design/methodology/approachThis paper designed a computational network simulation software to generate topological networks based on established rules. Based on the topological networks, the software simulated the movement path of users and calculated the average travel time. This software allows the adjustment of parameters to suit different research objectives. The average travel time is used as an evaluation index to determine the most appropriate construction sequence.FindingsIn this paper, the transportation infrastructure network of Sichuan Province in China was used to demonstrate this software. The average travel time of the existing transportation network in Sichuan Province was calculated as 211 min using this software. The high-speed railways from Leshan to Xichang and from Xichang to Yibin had the greatest influence on shortening the average travel time. This paper also measured the changes in the average travel time under two strategies: shortening the maximum and minimum priorities. All the transportation network optimisation plans for Sichuan Province will be somewhere between these two strategies.Originality/valueThe contribution of this research are three aspects: First, a complex network analysis method that can take into account the differences of node elements is proposed. Second, it provides an effective tool for decision makers to plan transportation infrastructure construction. Third, the construction sequence of transportation infrastructure development plan can effect the infrastructure investment effectiveness.

By 2025 the Republic of Colombia aims to be an advisory member of the Antarctic Treaty System (ATS) and the installation of a scientific station is necessary to upscale the scientific capabilities. The aim of this paper is showing the results of the implementation of a Fuzzy TOPSIS algorithm for site selection of the Colombian Antarctic Scientific Station. A three-phase methodology was proposed, and the obtained results allowed to identify the optimum location for the station, considering key success factors and regulatory constraints.
