Abstract: In this study, the QUAL2E model is linked with a genetic algorithm (GA) in order to conduct the calibration and verification of the model. The efficacy of the optimization model was tested for different observation data ...

Abstract: The impacts of physical and chemical aquifer heterogeneities on optimal remediation design, costs, and time to compliance are investigated by linking a genetic algorithm with a contaminant transport simulation model. ...

Abstract: A vast majority of studies on municipal solid waste (MSW) collection routing do not consider the constraints pertinent to actual road networks such as unidirectional roads and terrain characteristics. As a result, good ...
