Abstract

Nonlinear Muskingum method is a very efficient tool in flood routing implementation. It is possible to estimate an outflow hydrograph by a given inflow hydrograph of a flood at a specific point of the river channel. However, it turns out an optimization problem at the stage of employing this method, and it becomes important to reach the optimal model parameters so as to obtain precise outflow hydrograph estimations. Hence, it was decided to utilize five up-to-date optimization algorithms, namely, vortex search algorithm (VSA), gases brownian motion algorithm (GBMO), water cycle algorithm (WCA), flower pollination algorithm (FPA), and colliding bodies optimization (CBO). The algorithms were integrated with the nonlinear Muskingum model so as to estimate the outflow hydrograph of Wilson data, and it was deduced that WCA, FPA, and VSA perform relatively better than the models employed in the other researches before.
