Abstract
This paper evaluates the container ports importance along "21st Century Maritime Silk Road". A directed weighted container shipping network is constructed by collecting global container ship route data in 2021 and using complex network related methods. This paper proposes a comprehensive evaluation model with the Entropy-weight TOPSIS method based on the ports’ own multi attributes involving the navigation, transfer and anti-interference ability. It also proposes an evaluation model based on the ports’ global attribute considering the importance influence of other ports who has communication with the evaluated port in the network. 400 container ports’ importance in the real container shipping network along the "21st Century Maritime Silk Road " are evaluated by using the above two evaluation methods and the results are analyzed to prove the correlation and rationality of the evaluation methods. The result shows that Singapore Port, Rotterdam Port, Kelang Port, Hong Kong Port, Ningbo Port and Shanghai Port are very important in the container shipping network; The important ports identified based on the ports’ global attribute evaluation method have greater influence on the container shipping network, and the port failure will lead to more serious network damage; In order to ensure the stability of the container shipping network, the key ports which has high ranking in importance evaluation should be given priority to development and protection. In addition, strengthening the joint construction of the key ports themselves and the surrounding port groups is also significant.
