Though the minimum area section is generally adopted for canals,it is not the least earthwork cost section as it does … not involve the cost of earthwork which varies with the excavationdepth. On account of complexities of analysis, explicit … designequations for minimum earthwork cost canal sections has not available yet. In this investigation explicit equations and section …

probability. An optimization model is developed to minimize the total cost of construction and flooding probability. The bi …-objective model is solved by using the constraint method of multiple objective optimization technique. The objective of minimizing the … flooding probability constraint equation. The optimization model is solved by using projected augmented Lagrangian method. The …

required amount of water to be available at any time. In this type of projects, the earthwork can represent up to 80% of the … time and effort to these calculations, finding the definite location for the lowest earthwork cost is very complicated and … calculation of the cost of the earthwork in a series of locations. The different locations within the defined limit are obtained …
