[0002] Reservoir scheduling is a core component of water resource management, aiming to achieve synergistic optimization of multiple objectives, including flood control, power generation, and water supply, while ensuring project safety. Traditional reservoir scheduling methods often rely on empirical rules or single-objective optimization, making it difficult to address multi-objective balance problems under complex hydrological conditions. For example, solely pursuing the minimization of maximum outflow may lead to reservoirs exceeding flood control limits, while excessive control of outflow capacity may increase downstream flood control pressure. Existing PSO-based reservoir scheduling models often suffer from incomplete objective considerations, such as neglecting the impact of outflow stability on downstream river channels and coarse constraint handling, thus limiting the practicality of scheduling schemes.
