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...

Intelligent reservoir characterization using seismic attributes and hydraulic flow units has a vital role in the description of oil and gas traps. The predicted model allows an accurate understanding of the reservoir quality, especially at the un-cored well location. This study was conducted in two major steps. In the first step, the survey compared different intelligent techniques to discover ...

reservoir dams are among the main storage systems employed in agriculture for the several past decades. proper operation of these reservoirs is important for irrigation espe-cially in such arid and semi-arid areas like iran, and particularly during dry years. a computational framework for reservoir simulation and flood routing is hereby presented. a key aspect of the reservoir simulation is the...

Operation of multi-reservoir systems is known as complicated and often large-scale optimization problems. The problems, because of broad search space, nonlinear relationships, correlation of several variables, as well as problem uncertainty, are difficult requiring powerful algorithms with specific capabilities to be solved. In the present study a Self-adaptive version of Melody Search algorith...

Planning for supply water demands (drinkable and irrigation water demands) is a necessary problem. For this purpose, three subjects must be considered (optimization of water supply systems such as volume of reservoir dams, optimization of released water from reservoir and prediction of next droughts). For optimization of volume of reservoir dams, yield model is applied. Reliability of yield mod...

Limitations on water resources and the high costs of new hydraulic structure construction intensify the need for an optimum operation of Iranian reservoir systems. For appropriate water distribution and management in a 9-reservoir system on the Kalamarz river, Mianeh basin optimizing mathematical models are applied. Considering the stochastic nature of river discharges and the constant amount o...
