- Abstract
The article presents the result of the study on the Reservoir Optimization-Simulation with Sediment Evacuation (ROSSE) model applied in the Tarbela Reservoir in Pakistan to optimize and simulate its operation with sediment evacuation. It mentions that the ROSSE model, which uses the genetic algorithm based optimization capabilities and embeds the sediment evacuation model into the simulation model, is applied to optimize the rule curves of the reservoir. In this relation, the study concludes that it is possible to enhance the reservoir's sustainability and maximize its net income benefits by modifying the operating policy and rule curves.
