Abstract: Soil water characteristic curve is an important parameter of soil water movement.Van Genuchten equation(VG equation) is currently the most widely used soil water characteristic curve equation.The VG equation parameter calculation problem is transformed into a nonlinear optimization problem,and then builds the Hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm(HPSO) of Simplex Algorithm(SM) and Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO) combined is used to solve the nonlinear optimization problem.The simulation experiments results show that HPSO is greatly superior to genetic algorithm,hybrid genetic algorithms,PSO,not only improves the success rate of convergence and reduces the number of iterations of the algorithm,but also relaxes the range of parameters,the accuracy of HPSO in calculation parameters is higher than SM and the Damped Least Square method(DLS) and the initial parameter values are not given.

摘要: 土壤水分特征曲线是研究土壤水运动的重要参数。Van Genuchten方程(简称VG方程)是目前运用最广泛的土壤水分特征曲线方程。将VG方程参数计算问题转化为一个非线性优化问题,然后构建单纯形算法和基本粒子群算法相结合的混合粒子群算法对其进行求解。仿真实验结果表明采用混合粒子群算法与普通遗传算法、混合遗传算法、基本粒子群算法相比,不但提高了收敛成功率、降低了迭代次数,而且对参数的取值范围也放宽了;采用混合粒子群算法计算参数的精度比非线性单纯形法和阻尼最小二乘法要高,且不需给出参数的初始值。
