Abstract: This research communication aims to present three mathematical methods for analyzing inventory management in dynamic supply chains, starting from the basic definition in differential equations for inventory levels, which relates with production and demand rates. Initially, the study adopts a systemic perspective to examine the role of energy within a production–inventory system. Subsequently, the analysis focuses on inventory dynamics under parameters expressed in complex variables, with the aim of quantifying fluctuations in a generic production system and demonstrating the influence of inventory variation rates on system behavior. Finally, the investigation addresses the impact of variable capacity on production system inventories, drawing on analogies with corresponding physical systems to support the analysis.
