Against the backdrop of responsible economic development, sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) is key to achieving the sustainable development for enterprise and industry. In this regard, sustainable supplier selection is crucial in SSCM. By integrating the three dimensions of sustainability, economic, environmental and social, this paper presents a new evaluation system for supplier selection from a sustainability perspective. Specifically, we design a decision mechanism for sustainable supplier selection based on linguistic 2-tuple grey correlation degree. In this proposed mechanism, the hybrid attribute values whereby real numbers, interval numbers and linguistic fuzzy variables coexist are transformed into linguistic 2-tuples. A ranking method based on linguistic 2-tuple grey correlation degree is then presented to rank the suppliers. An application example is presented to highlight the implementation, availability and feasibility of the proposed decision making mechanism.

With application of intelligence technology in the manufacturing industry, the supply chain of manufacturing industry is more and more competitive. Strategic supplier is becoming more and more key element for the success of manufacturing enterprise. At present, there are many methods on selection and evaluation of strategic supplier of manufacturing enterprise. Analytical hierarchy process and grey correlation analysis is method which is used to choose strategic supplier of manufacturing enterprise by building optimum reference date and solving grey correlation degree. These have great effects in the enterprise practice in the aspects of qualitative diagnosis, quantitative diagnosis and grey information processing.

In view of the disfigurement that the former research mostly focus on the evaluation of the investment value before investment, not only this paper uses for reference to the former evaluation system, but also successfully integrates it into a unity that the evaluation before investment and after investment. This paper designs a set of evaluation criterion and a set of actual state evaluation system. Comparing both of them is the essential start of evaluation. Then according to it, and based on the grey correlation degree theory, this paper constructs a set of compositive evaluation indexgrowth imitating degree, The method provides a primary analysis frame for monitoring venture enterprise fostering.

With the development of new energy and flexible load, there are many kinds of power and load characters in the power grid. It’s necessary to considerate the similarity between generation output and load when it’s market clearing. First, similarity analysis of generation-load curve based on the grey correlation degree is introduced, correlation between power generation enterprises and power users can be calculated. Then, market clearing model is built. market clearing mechanism is set which considering the matching degree between generation and load. The technological process of market clearing is given. Last, the effectiveness of the proposed clearing model is verified by an example.

Accurate assessment for the operational status of the transformer bushing is not only a prerequisite for the implementation of condition-based maintenance, but also to ensure the normal operation of the transformer and the whole power equipment conditions. In the paper, a model of weight absolute grey correlation degree was used to assess the transformer bushing state. Firstly, determined the assessment indicators and handled them. Secondly, the weights, correlation coefficients and each association were calculated. Thirdly, to compare the largest association of assessment indicators in grades as the transformer bushing final run state. Finally, give the state assessment results, according to the remark set. The result shows the model works well.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to design and optimize economic and environmental dimensions in a sustainable supply chain (SSC) network. This paper developed a mixed-integer linear programing (MILP) model to incorporate economical and environmental data for multi-objective optimization of the SSC network. Design/methodology/approach The overall objective of the present study is to use high-quality raw materials, at the same time the lowest amount of pollution emission and the highest profitability is achieved. The model in the problem is solved using two algorithms, namely, multi-objective genetic and multi-objective particle swarm. In this research, to integrate sustainable supplier selection and optimization of sustainability performance indicators in supply chain network design considering minimization of cost and time and maximization of sustainability indexes of the system. Findings The differences found between the genetic algorithms (GAs) and the MILP approaches can be explained by handling the constraints and their various logics. The solutions are contrasted with the original crisp model based on either MILP or GA, offering more robustness to the proposed approach. Practical implications The model is applied to Mega Motor company to optimize the sustainability performance of the supply chain i.e. economic (cost), social (time) and environmental (pollution of raw material). The research method has two approaches, namely, applied and mathematical modeling. Originality/value There is limited research designing and optimizing the SSC network. This study is among the first to integrate sustainable supplier selection and optimization of sustainability performance indicators in supply chain network design considering minimization of cost and time and maximization of sustainability indexes of the system.
