Branch-bound Enumeration for Reservoir Flood Control Plan Selection
This thesis documents the development and application of a branch and bound enumeration algorithm for the selection of an optimal flood control plan. An application is presented in which optimal reservoir flood control plans for a three reservoir system are selected. Computer program HEC-5 is used to simulate the reservoir system to determine the modified condition flow-frequency curves, EAD is used to evaluate expected annual damage reductions and the HEC-DSS programs are used to manage the large amounts of data required for the computations. The branch and bound enumeration algorithm provides a systematic evaluation of plans with the HEC programs and expedites identification of the optimal plan by eliminating the need to evaluate all alternative plans.
