Risk has long been an important aspect of logistics. This is especially prominent right now when the whole world is affected by COVID-19. Transportation Research Part E (TRE), as a well-established journal in logistics and transportation, has also featured many important studies related to “risk”. In this editorial article, we examine risk analysis research in logistics systems with special relevance to COVID-19. We first discuss the topics of risk analysis in logistics by reviewing some prior publications in TRE. We also introduce the related TRE special issues, including published ones and an on-going one. We then propose a research agenda, which hopefully can help inspire more innovative risk analysis research to overcome challenges in logistics during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.

长期以来，风险一直是物流的重要方面。当全世界都受到COVID-19的影响时，这尤其突出。运输研究E部分（TRE）作为一本公认的物流和运输杂志，还介绍了许多与“风险”相关的重要研究。在这篇社论文章中，我们研究了与COVID-19特别相关的物流系统中的风险分析研究。我们首先通过回顾TRE的一些先前出版物来讨论物流风险分析的主题。我们还将介绍相关的TRE特殊问题，包括已出版的问题和正在进行中的问题。然后，我们提出了一项研究议程，希望可以帮助激发更多创新的风险分析研究，以克服COVID-19大流行期间和之后的物流挑战。
