DESIGN OF MINIMUM SEEPAGE LOSS IRRIGATION CANAL SECTIONS USING PROBABILISTIC SEARCH
نویسنده
چکیده مقاله:
To ensure efficient performance of irrigation canals, the losses from the canals need to be minimized. In this paper a modified formulation is presented to solve the optimization model for the design of different canal geometries for minimum seepage loss, in meta-heuristic environment. The complex non-linear and non-convex optimization model for canal design is solved using a probabilistic search algorithm namely Probabilistic Global Search Lausanne (PGSL). The solutions are found to be competitive to those reported in literature while applied for different example problems. To suit for real field applications, three site specific constraints are considered and the sensitivity of solutions for the most popular trapezoidal canals is investigated. The study shows the potential of the proposed approach to perform optimal design of irrigation canals for minimum seepage loss.

In this paper, power distribution planning (PDP) considering distributed generators (DGs) is investigated as a dynamic multi-objective optimization problem. Moreover, Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) is applied to handle the uncertainty in electricity price and load demand. In the proposed model, investment and operation costs, losses and purchased power from the main grid are incorporated in the f...

متن کاملRoot Canal Irrigation
Irrigation is probably the most underrated procedure in Endodontic therapy. While most articles or presentations spend a great deal of time on shaping procedures, not much emphasis is given for irrigation. This has led to a great deal of confusion on the type of irrigant, the protocol and the method of use. The purpose of this article is to discuss root canal irrigants, irrigation techniques an...
