Analysis Of Influencing Factors Of Swift Trust In Emergency Logistics

In recent years, large-scale and frequent natural disasters have been causingenormous economic and environmental losses all over the world, which have threatenedthe stability of the social life. Therefore, emergency logistics should transfer the requiredrelief materials accurately to help the people affected by the disaster to get rid of thedisaster threat and return to normal life, which means that emergency response subjectsshould build swift trust improving their cooperation to facilitate the emergency relief chaincoordination smoothly. At the same time, the emergency response can be faster and moreaccurate to make the efficiency maximization.In order to improve relief subjects cooperation to optimize the emergency relief chain,this paper analyzes the factors of swift trust in emergency logistics. Firstly, based on theextensive review of existing literatures,20influencing factors of swift trust in emergencylogistics are summarized. Secondly, fuzzy theory is used to the interrelationship among all20factors and then DEMATEL method is used to calculate the comprehensive relationmatrix to analyze the importance of each factor in the system. Thirdly, based on thecomprehensive relation matrix, the Minimum Divided Entropy is used to determine thereasonable threshold to choose important factors which have strong relationship with otherfactors. Lastly, combining all the results to extract and analyze the key factors of swifttrust in emergency logistics. Furthermore, some suggestions will be presented to facilitateswift trust relationship among response subjects, improving their cooperation to increasethe efficiency of emergency relief.
