The present study is another attempt in the same direction throughwhich a new computer model, developed on the basis of optimization technique, is discussed.Throughout the model, the well-known Finite Element Method (FEM) is utilized to discretize andsolve the governing equations of groundwater flow. For the optimization part, Augmented LagrangeMultiplier Method (ALMM) is used to convert the constrained problem to an unconstrained problem,first. Then Davidon-Fletcher-Powell (DFP) optimization technique is utilized to solve the resultedunconstrained problem. The capabilities of the developed model are illustrated by employing anexample. The results show fairly good performance of the model, although some limitations still exist.}, keywords = {}, title_fa = {کالیبره کردن خودکار مدل آبهای زیرزمینی با استفاده از بهینه یابی مقید}, abstract_fa = {}, keywords_fa = {}, url = {https://jhyd.iha.ir/article_85449.html}, eprint = {https://jhyd.iha.ir/article_85449_5c9cf08f68557405d92e8d877cb85e4b.pdf} }
