1 Karbowski, A.. 1993. Optimal flood control in multireservoir cascade systems with deterministic inflow forecasts. Water Resources Management, 7(3):207-223.
(Location: IWMI-HQ Call no: PER Record No: H012659)
This article presents the formal analysis of a problem of the optimal flood control in systems of serially connected multiple water reservoirs. It is assumed, that the basic goal is minimization of the peak flow measured at a point (cross-section) located downstream from all reservoirs and that inflows to the system are deterministic. A theorem expressing sufficient conditions of optimality for combinations of releases from the reservoirs is presented together with the relevant proof. The main features of the optimal combinations of controls are thoroughly explained. Afterwards, two methods of determining the optimal releases are presented. Finally, the results of the application of the proposed methodology to a small, four reservoir system are presented.
