Taking the green supply chain consisting of one manufacturer and one retailer as the research object, the effects of channel demand discount and the manufacturer’s social responsibility on the manufacturer’s channel choices under the equal retail pricing strategy and the three channel strategies were studied. The findings show that when the level of social responsibility and the discount coefficient of demand shifting are low, it is optimal for the manufacturer to open both retail and direct sales channels, and when the level of social responsibility and the discount coefficient of demand shifting are high, the manufacturer achieves the best total profit by retaining only the direct sales channel.
As China’s emission reduction efforts continue to advance, the carbon emissions of the chemical industry have shown a gradual downward trend. However, the industry still faces challenges of high energy consumption and high carbon emissions in achieving the carbon neutrality goal. A system dynamics-based carbon emission model was constructed to simulate the carbon emissions of chemical sub-industries from 2010 to 2021.Dynamic effects of factors such as per capita consumption, fixed asset investment, and education level on carbon emissions were analyzed. The simulation results indicate that an increase in consumption levels may put pressure on carbon emissions, but significant reductions can be achieved through increased investment in fixed assets and promotion of green consumption behavior.
The study of investment networks is crucial to the promotion of regional integration. Based on the data of enterprises’ outward investment from 2005 to 2022, the nodes, patterns and structural evolution characteristics of the investment network as a whole and in different industries were analyzed using social network analysis. The investment linkage matrix was also constructed and the SLM(spatial lag model) was used to explore the externalities of the investment network. The results show that the power polarization of investment network nodes is obvious, with Chengdu and Chongqing occupying an absolutely dominant position. The investment network power of manufacturing and financial industries shows ring and fragmented distribution, respectively. The investment network pattern evolves towards multi-core equilibrium, and the manufacturing network pattern is more mature. The investment network has an obvious core-edge structure, but the difference in core degree gradually decreases. The investment network has significant positive externalities on economic growth, showing a trend of decreasing and then increasing. The manufacturing investment network has a stronger role in promoting economic growth. Consumer markets and government policies are important factors driving economic growth in local and linked cities.

Considering the effect of the separation between the supporting layer and the base layer of the ballastless railway caused by foundation settlement, a simplified method was proposed for calculating the rail deformation of the ballastless railway to tunnelling underneath. Firstly, the track slab and the supporting layer were supposed as a composite elastic beam, and a simplified equation for the deformation of ballastless railway composite beams induced by shield tunneling was proposed by ignoring the influence of fasteners on the composite beam deformation. Afterwards, the composite beam was divided into a void zone and a joint zone, and the analytical solutions for the deformations of the composite beams caused by tunnlling underneath were proposed based on the elastic foundation beam theory. Furthmore, the rail was regarded as an Euler beam connecting with the composite beam by the dispersed spring, and the equations for the rail deformation caused by the composite beam deformation were derived. Based on the above, compared with the numerical simulation and theoretical results in the existing literature, the proposed simplified method of the ballastless railway caused by tunneling underneath was validated. Finally, the influences of model parameters on the rail deformation to tunnelling underneath were discussed, including the tunnelling induced ground loss rate, the composite beam bending stiffness, the fastener stiffness, and the rail bending stiffness. The results indicate that the theoretical calculation results were overestimated by neglecting the local suspension effect of the supporting layer. Reducing the tunnelling induced ground loss rate, strengthening the composite beams and rails can control the rail deformation of the ballastless railway caused by tunnlling undercrossing, but strengthening the fasteners stiffness may increase the unevenness of rail deformation.
Pre-application evaluation of patents is important to improve patent quality, form high-value patent, and promote the transformation of achievements.
