Algorithms for selecting a hydraulic structure design based on expert assessments

Abstract

This article discusses general algorithms for the design of hydraulic structures and algorithms for selecting the optimal design based on the quality indicators required for them. Several hydraulic structure projects are being created that can compete with each other based on various criteria. Algorithms have been developed to automate the process of evaluating these projects using the expert method. Based on the Delphi and Pareto methods, a methodology for selecting the most appropriate project option has been developed. The proposed algorithms are adapted to programming languages. Universality lies in the sequence of easily formalized steps, starting from the analysis of geodetic data to Pareto optimization of the resulting projects. The proposed sequence of steps ensures the generation of multiple projects based on initial data and the selection of the most acceptable from the point of view of the decision maker.
