Uncertainty quantification in the design of wireless power transfer systems

Abstract

AbstractThe paper addresses the uncertainty quantification of physical and geometrical material parameters in the design of wireless power transfer systems. For 3D complex systems, a standard Monte Carlo cannot be directly used to extract statistical quantities. So, surrogate models based on Kriging or polynomial chaos expansions are built to study the impact of variable parameters on the radiated magnetic field and efficiency. Such fast prediction of uncertainties in the parameters of the system can improve the design of inductive power transfer systems taking into account human exposure recommendations and variability of the parameters.
