This is a distorted picture because what each macroparticle do is to break into, because of differences among velocities of contained realistic particles, pieces with different destinations at next time point, rather than a global moving to a destination at next time point. Therefore, the scientific validity of results obtained from such an approximation cannot be warranted. Here, we propose a solution to this problem. It can fundamentally warrant exact solutions of plasma self-consistent fields and hence those of microscopic distribution function.展开更多

Existing methods for these problems are either deterministic or limited in scale. We analyze the impact of uncertainty on demand based on actual large data from industrial companies.Deterministic equivalent model with nonanticipativity constraints, branch-and-fix coordination, sample average approximation(SAA) with Bayesian bootstrap, and Latin hypercube sampling were adopted to analyze stochastic demands. A computational study of supply chain network with front-ends in Europe and back-ends in Asia is presented to highlight the importance of stochastic factors in these problems and the efficiency of our proposed solution approach.展开更多
