“…The above analyses show that a single cost-sharing contract and a benefit-sharing contract will promote the coordination of a green supply chain and improve the overall profit level of the supply chain, which is agreed by most scholars [13,16,27,32]. However, there are fewer studies describing the combination of multiple coordination contracts.…”

“…However, retailers not only share the costs of green R&D, but also their own revenues, further reducing the conditions under which coordination mechanisms can be reached [13]. A study modelled the supply chain of shared logistics services under a revenue-sharing or cost-sharing contract; however, no integration study was conducted [16]. The above analyses show that revenue-sharing pacts can improve the efficiency of the supply chain and increase the benefits for both manufacturer and retailer, and that a single cost-sharing pact and a revenue-sharing pact play an important role in coordinating the interests of supply chain members.…”

“…For example, Volkswagen and Ford share R&D costs for electric cars and autonomous driving; mobile phone manufacturers share revenues with retailers (e.g., Indian dealers sell an iPhone X at a profit margin of 4.5% (which drops to 1% to 2% with a discount card), and Samsung Xiaomi offers a profit margin of 12% to 15%. Both contracts have been extensively studied by scholars [15][16][17]. Some scholars have also compared the cost-sharing contract as well as the revenue-sharing contract with other market behaviors [18,19].…”

The rapid development of industrialization has led to the increasing contradiction between human and nature, and green products are favored by more and more consumers. In this paper, a two-level green manufacturing supply chain between a manufacturer that produces green products and a retailer that invests in advertising is investigated. The Stackelberg game is used to study the supply chain decision-making and coordination problems when the demand depends on the greenness of the products and the investment in advertising, and to propose a coordination mechanism for cost-sharing and revenue-sharing. Finally, numerical simulation is used to simulate and analyze the research findings and important parameters. Our results indicate that: (1) When the cost-sharing coefficient and the benefit-sharing coefficient satisfy a certain range of conditions, the supply chain members considering a single coordination mechanism are superior to the supply chain without a coordination mechanism; (2) With the gradual increase in the cost-sharing coefficient of contract, the degree of greenness of the products produced by manufacturers and the level of intensity of the advertisements invested in by retailers show a tendency to increase first and then decrease; (3) In the study of the integrated coordination mechanism of cost-sharing and benefit sharing, the stronger the coordination ability of supply chain members, the wider the range of constraints to reach a win–win cooperation, and the higher the benefits created for supply chain members. All this yields novel insights into managing the manufacture of green products in the context of green supply chain members’ consideration of coordination mechanisms.

“…Moreover, most e-commerce express delivery companies and even large-scale urban logistics distribution companies still adopt the traditional franchise business model in the city level, and it is difficult to achieve centralized and unified management and control of operating costs; for this reason, the cost of first-line logistics in various regions is often very different. In view of this, in order to study more general issues and explain the general results, the data used in the case study and numerical analysis of this paper mainly comes from the previous years' earnings data of several listed express delivery companies [22,34]. At the same time, it combines research and interviews on the actual operation of some e-commerce express delivery companies and related cost information.…”

In the real business environment, due to unpredictable market demand or high prediction difficulty and low prediction accuracy, there will be inevitably operational loss in the field of e-commerce logistics caused by undersupply or oversupply of express service capabilities. At present, China is deepening the supply-side structural reforms. Confronted with the growing demand for e-commerce logistics express delivery, especially the urgent demand for tackling orders piling up to 1 billion pieces during the recent “Double 11” shopping carnival, it is very important and practical for us to study how to make scientific decisions on the supply side in the field of e-commerce express delivery. Therefore, in this paper, we design a sharing logistics cooperation mechanism considering both the undersupply and oversupply of express delivery service capabilities under stochastic demand. By comparing the earnings data of several listed express companies, we analyze four types of optimization strategies: the order flow proportion revenue sharing strategy (RE-OFP), the combined factors revenue sharing strategy (RE-RSF), the order flow proportion risk sharing strategy (RS-OFP), and the combined factors risk sharing strategy (RS-RSF). The research results demonstrate that the four optimization strategies of RE-OFP, RE-RSF, RS-OFP, and RS-RSF could achieve Pareto improvements in the operational performance of e-commerce express service. The performance of four revenue sharing and risk sharing strategies varies with different revenue sharing or risk sharing factors. Under some certain combined factors, the revenue sharing contract could help realize the supply chain coordination of the sharing logistics service. The sharing logistics cooperation mechanism based on equity investment proposed hereafter provides a feasible solution to solve the problems of high empty driving rate and operational cost of e-commerce express delivery service in urban areas.

“…In addition, due to the different types of shared resources, the research methods and results are also quite different. Luo et al [17] studied sharing logistics service supply chain with revenue-sharing and cost-sharing contracts. Taking Velox (a global logistics organization) as an example, Wong and Davision [18] studied the impact and contribution of knowledge sharing in theory, practice and methods.…”

In order to solve the problems of mismatch between transportation resources and order volume in logistics transportation, we propose a cooperative pattern called sharing transportation to solve this problems. In this pattern, several logistics enterprises or alliances cooperate with each other and share transportation resources to achieve the goal of reducing costs and increasing income. In this paper, we set the application scene of sharing transportation to the section from the distribution center to the service outlets in the city. We first put forward the judgment function in the analysis model of cooperative pattern, and the possible cooperative pattern is divided into three kinds by constructing and solving the replication dynamic equation. Then we proposed the income allocation model by considering the functions of order quantity and overall income. Moreover, the proposed models are extended to the multi-agent game situation to realize the sharing transportation of multiple enterprises. Finally, we use the example simulation and sensitivity analysis to verify the rationality of the model. This paper provides a new idea for how to integrate the surplus resources to increase the profit in the process of logistics transportation.
