In the multimodal transport alliance, the participation rate of the carrier and the communication structure of the alliance are important influencing factors of profit distribution results. To get a reasonable profit distribution scheme, this paper constructs a profit distribution model considering the characteristics of multimodal transport, called the Choquet Cloud Gravity Center AT model. Firstly, considering the communication structure of the alliance, the Cloud Gravity Center Average Tree method is used as the base model for profit distribution. Secondly, considering the multimodal transport alliance is a fuzzy coalition, the profit for each alliance subset in the base model is calculated by the Choquet integral. Then, the profit distribution model considering participation rate and communication structure is obtained. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the applicability of the model, and comparative analysis is conducted to verify the rationality of the model. This study provides a suitable profit-sharing model for multimodal transport alliances, which is conducive to the stable and efficient operation of alliances.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3233\/jifs-231370","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,9,5]],"date-time":"2023-09-05T11:49:24Z","timestamp":1693914564000},"page":"8735-8746","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["A
