A Simulation Study of General Aviation Cargo Policy in China: A System Dynamics Perspective

Currently, addressing the imbalances in the development of domestic general air freight and public aviation freight formats, as well as the imperfections in policies, regulations, and sys-tems, is crucial. This study employs system dynamics theory as its research method to con-struct a dynamic model of China's general aviation freight system. By examining the supply side, demand side, and the general aviation freight industry chain, the study illustrates the feedback relationships within general aviation freight and establishes an indicator system. Using Ven sim PLE software, the research creates causal relationship diagrams of the main subsystems and an overall system flow diagram. The model is quantitatively specified through historical and sensitivity testing. The findings indicate that varying levels of financial in-vestment and tax preferential policies significantly enhance the economic benefits of navigation and freight in China. Additionally, increased investment in scientific research funding is expected to advance the technical level of navigation operations. Therefore, it is recommended to boost investment in general air freight, implement preferential tax policies for air-craft manufacturing enterprises, navigation operating enterprises, and infrastructure support units, increase investment in R&D for the general cargo transport industry, and focus on the training and incentivization of navigation professionals.

Low-Altitude and High-Speed Transportation Approach for Improved Logistics Efficiency and Carbon Reduction in Urban Networks

The new framework that combines the low-altitude economy with high-speed transportation offers a practical and effective solution for modern city logistics systems. It shows strong potential in boosting delivery efficiency, cutting costs, and reducing carbon emissions. This study focuses on Suzhou's logistics network, using a multi-goal optimization model and a smart scheduling system to assess how well the low-altitude economy works in different logistics situations. By combining an ARIMA time series prediction model with a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network, the study looks at how logistics needs change during busy times, bad weather, and emergency situations. The research uses different data sources to help drones and ground vehicles work together smoothly. The model includes three main measures: delivery efficiency (T), transportation costs (C), and carbon emissions (E), and shows the real benefits of the low-altitude economy through clear data analysis. The results show that in normal conditions, delivery efficiency increased to 97.9, transportation costs dropped to 65.4, and carbon emissions fell to 58.2. During peak traffic and bad weather, delivery efficiency stayed strong at 85.5 and 80.3. The smart scheduling system managed resources well, keeping costs and emissions within safe limits (cost: 70.1-73.5; emissions: 61.8-67.9). Scheduling efficiency went up from 0.85 to 0.93, and resource use improved from 74.6% to 88.1%. The analysis showed a clear negative link between delivery efficiency and carbon emissions (-0.85) and a positive link between costs and emissions (0.78). This suggests the need to balance cost savings with environmental benefits. The suggested approach, combining the multi-goal optimization model with a smart scheduling system, not only helps Suzhou handle complex logistics challenges but also provides a useful model for other large cities, supporting the move towards faster, greener, and smarter city logistics systems.
