In this paper, the multi-objective topology optimizations of wireless power transfer (WPT) devices with two different coil geometries are proposed for obtaining the designs with good balance between transfer efficiency and safety. For this purpose, the proposed method adopts the normalized Gaussian network (NGnet) and Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA-II). In addition, the optimization under the different constraint on ferrite volume is carried out to verify its influence on optimization results. It has been shown that the proposed method successfully provides the Pareto solution to the design problem of the WPT device.

In wireless charging devices, a transmitter that applies a single inverter to output dual-frequency can effectively solve the charging incompatibility problem caused by different wireless charging standards and reduce the equipment volume. However, it is very difficult to solve the switching angle of the modulated dual-frequency waveform, which involves non-linear high-dimensional multi-objective optimization with multiple constraints. In this paper, an improved differential evolution (DE) algorithm is proposed to solve the transcendental equations of switching angle trains of dual-frequency programmed harmonic modulation (PHM) waveform. The proposed algorithm maintains diversity while preserving the elites and improves the convergence speed of the solution. The advantage of the proposed algorithm was verified by comparing with non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm II (NSGA II) and multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO). The simulation and experimental results validate that the proposed method can output dual-frequency with a single inverter for wireless power transfer (WPT).

Firstly, the structural parameter optimization of the tooth-arrangement multi-fingered dextrous hand is studied. Secondly, as to the shortcomings that the Pareto solution of multi-objective optimization was distributed unevenly in NSGA-II, a non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm based on immune principle is proposed. Lastly, the structural parameter of the medical tooth-arrangement multi-fingered dextrous hand is optimized using the proposed algorithm. The experimental results show that this algorithm can optimize structural parameter of tooth-arrangement multi-fingered dextrous hand very well.

Multi-objective arithmetic NSGA-II based on Pareto solution is investigated to deal with integrated optimal design of speedability and manoeuvre performances for submersible. Approximation model of resistance for serial revolving shape is constructed by hydrodynamic numerical calculations. The appraisement criterions of stability and mobility are calculated from linear equation of horizontal movement by estimating hydrodynamic coefficient of submersible. After optimization, the scattered Pareto solution of drag and turning diameter are gained, and from the solutions designer can select the reasonable one based on the actual requirement. The Pareto solution can ensure the minimum drag in this manoeuvre performance or the best manoeuvre performance in this drag value.

This paper addresses the optimization of the compensation networks of a wireless power transfer system. Optimization is performed by means of a genetic algorithm that looks for the reactances of the elements of the compensation networks that maximize the power transfer efficiency and the power transferred to the load. In addition, the algorithm selects the solutions that are less sensitive to the difference between the theoretical and actual reactances. The last part of the paper describes the prototypal setup used for the tests and supports the theoretical findings by reporting experimental results.
