DETERMINATION OF THE PARAMETERS OF SUBSURFACE DRIP IRRIGATION SYSTEMS ON THE BASE OF MOISTURE TRANSPORT MODELING

The paper considers the problem of determining depth drip pipelines installation and distance between within design subsurface irrigation systems along with assessment pulse regime efficiency. corresponding optimization has an objective function that assesses costs creating operating system is solved by a genetic algorithm. For each set parameters' values scheduling during growing season modeled according to specified pre-irrigation threshold. simulation based on two-dimensional Richards equation approximated finite-difference scheme. characteristics crop development are determined model change stages accumulation given amount active temperatures. To take into account variability weather conditions modeling performed for series randomly generated scenarios.
