Abstract: To simulate fully nonstationary earthquake ground motion, an improved generalized evolutionary spectrum model derived from a counterpart of stationary seismic processes is proposed in the present paper. Through integrating ...

Abstract: Pareto archived dynamically dimensioned search (PA-DDS) is one of the meta-heuristic methods available to solve multiobjective reservoir operation problems. This study uses this method to optimize reservoir operation rules ...

Abstract: Seasonal design floods reflecting seasonal variation information are very important for reservoir operation and management. The seasonal design flood estimation method currently used in China is based on univariate frequency ...
