this study is focused on developing an integrated optimization-simulation based genetic algorithm model (iosga) to develop the operational policies for a multi-purpose reservoir system. the objective function of the optimization model is considered to be a linear function of reliability (rel), resiliency (res), and vulnerability (vul) of the river-reservoir system. genetic algorithm (ga) is emp...

Recycling irrigation reservoirs (RIRs) are emerging aquatic environments of global significance to crop production, water conservation and environmental sustainability. This study characterized the diversity and population structure of cyanobacteria and other detected microbes in water samples from eight RIRs and one adjacent runoff-free stream at three ornamental crop nurseries in eastern (VA1...

dam reservoirs supplies water resources for drinking, agriculture, and industry almost in all parts of iran. lack of proper utilization rules and unbalanced demands versus available water has led to many problems regarding to ineffective use of the water resources. precipitation and flow rate are stochastic phenomena. therefore, multi-step processes related to the water use efficiency should be...

The paper illustrates a Decision Support System (DSS) for multi-reservoir water resource systems, named WARGI (Water Resources system optimization aided by Graphical Interface). WARGI was upgraded in the SEDEMED II Project to implement a mixed approach that uses optimization and simulation techniques to select the best combination of proactive and reactive measures under drought conditions. The...

Water reservoir programming studies aim to determine the final cultivated land area based on predefined agricultural models and water requirements. Dam utilization rule curve is also provided in such studies. The system of Dez dam water resources was simulated applying the basic information in order to determine the capability of its reservoir to provide the objectives of the performed plan. As...

background: several reservoir systems have been constructed for hydropower generation around the world. hydropower offers an economical source of electricity with reduce carbon emissions. therefore, it is such a clean and renewable source of energy. reservoirs that generate hydropower are typically operated with the goal of maximizing energy revenue. yet, reservoir systems are inefficiently ope...

In this paper the operation of multiple reservoirs by the utilization of analysis method of the system dynamics is considering and this analysis method is based on the feedback and object oriented events. The goal of this research is presentation of a new method by utilization of system dynamicity technique for simulation of the reservoir. This software is a product of Ventana Company and the e...

Environmental management and planning problems cover important real life areas. These problems may include the scarcity of groundwater resource, the optimality of a multi-reservoir system, the management of forest resources, the air quality monitoring networks, the municipal solid waste policies, etc. Management and planning targets by authorities consist in allocations at appropriate places an...
