Uncertainty commonly exists in the wireless power transfer (WPT) systems for moving objects. To enhance the robustness of the WPT system to uncertain parameter variations, a modified WPT system structure and an interval-based uncertain optimization method are proposed in this paper. The modified WPT system, which includes two Q-type impedance matching networks, can switch between two different operating modes. The interval-based uncertain optimization method is used to improve the robustness of the modified WPT system: First, two interval-based objective functions (mean function and variance function) are defined to evaluate the average performance and the robustness of the system. A double-objective uncertain optimization model for the modified WPT system is built. Second, a bi-level nested optimization algorithm is proposed to find the Pareto optimal solutions of the proposed optimization model. The Pareto fronts are provided to illustrate the tradeoff between the two objectives, and the robust solutions are obtained. Experiments were carried out to verify the theoretical method. The results demonstrated that using the proposed method, the modified WPT system can achieve good robustness when the coupling coefficient, the operating frequency, the load resistance or the load reactance varies over a wide range.

Epidemic blockade leads to increased uncertainty and dynamic supply network disruption. This study considers an uncertain optimization of dynamic supply networks with risk preference and order delivery disruption. Taking the subjective utility of downstream enterprises as a reference point for the utility measurement of order delivery disruption and risk preference, this study constructs a biobjective optimization model with the goal of maximizing the downstream firm’s subjective utility and minimizing the manufacturer’s cost. The influence of each parameter in the downstream firm’s subjective utility function on the integrated optimization was analysed. The research found that the uncertain optimization model with the risk preference of downstream firms for order delivery disruption better controls the actual manufacturer’s order allocation and distribution problems when considering the downstream firms’ behaviour preference characteristics under bounded rationality. When allocating orders, manufacturers should consider that changes in order delivery disruption will cause changes in the subjective utility of downstream enterprises. In the process of multiperiod cooperation between manufacturers and downstream firms, they can obtain downstream firm risk preferences through repeated investigations.

In order to investigate the inventory optimization of circulation enterprises, demand analysis was carried out firstly considering supply-demand balance. Then, it was assumed that the demand process complied with mutually independent compound Poisson process. Based on this assumption, an optimization model for inventory control of circulation enterprises was established with the goal of minimizing the average total costs in unit time of inventory system. In addition, the optimal computing algorithm for inventory costs was presented. Meanwhile, taking the agricultural enterprises in Aksu, Xinjiang, China, for example, the researchers conducted numerical simulation and sensitivity analysis. Through constantly adjusting and modifying the parameters values in model, the optimal stock and the optimal inventory costs were obtained. Therein, the numerical results showed that the uncertainty of lead time greatly influenced the optimal inventory strategy. Besides, it was demonstrated that the research results provided a valuable reference for the agricultural enterprises in terms of optimal management for inventory system.
