The Muskingum method is one of the widely used methods for lumped flood routing in natural rivers. Calibration its parameters remains an active challenge researchers. task has been mostly addressed by using crisp numbers, but fuzzy seems a reasonable alternative to account parameter uncertainty. In this work, model proposed where assessment outflow as quantity based on linear with inputs. This ...

Abstract The precise evaluation of the Muskingum model (MM) parameters is quite critical for routing flood waves achieving control in open channels. MM one popular techniques adopted routing. Estimation so as to provide best fit observed and computed flow values a global optimization problem. Several have been past serve this purpose, but efficient algorithms are needed overcome local optima is...

Flood forecasting and management are one of the most important strategies necessary for water resource decision planners in combating flood problems. The Muskingum model is popular widely used applications purpose predicting routing. particle swarm optimization (PSO) methodology was to estimate coefficients nonlinear this study, comparing results with methods genetic algorithm (GA), harmony sea...

Abstract The paper considers the problem of inverse flood routing in reservoir operation strategy. aim work is to investigate possibility determining hydrograph at upstream end based on required downstream using simplified open channel flow models. To accomplish this, linear kinematic wave equation, diffusive equation and Muskingum are considered. achieve end, an solution afore mentioned equati...

The interest in the use of mathematical models for simulation hydrological processes has largely increased especially prediction runoff. It is subject extreme research among engineers and hydrologists. This study attempts to develop a simple conceptual model that reflects features arid environment where availability data scarce. simulates an hourly streamflow hydrograph peak flow rate any given...

Abstract We analyzed the characteristics of main karstic/non-karst reaches Lijiang River to uncover causes behind different flood behaviors by providing a better understanding formation. Having 63 years rainfall-runoff data and applying HEC-HMS model, geo/hydrological features were investigated. The available reservoir capacity karts (ARCK) was included through soil moisture accounting loss ass...
