Abstract

En 中文
The resilience of the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road transportation network is crucial for maritime safety. This study develops a resilience theory framework and proposes a graph neural network–based model to quantify and predict the spatiotemporal dynamics of Maritime Silk Road transportation network resilience. A four-layer weighted graph convolution model integrates multi-source heterogeneous data, including ship, environmental, and historical accident information. Using spatiotemporal network analysis and dynamic simulation, annual resilience performance is assessed, and local resilience variations under tropical cyclone impacts are predicted. Results indicate that the Maritime Silk Road transportation network maintains strong overall resilience, with good adaptability and recovery capability. Resilience is generally higher in shipping segments closer to coastlines and exhibits marked spatial heterogeneity and periodic fluctuations. The proposed model provides decision support for optimizing transport resource allocation and enhancing maritime security cooperation along the Maritime Silk Road.
