REMAX is a software package designed to assist water managers in developing optimal ground water or coordinated ground water/surface water strategies for a wide range of management problems. REMAX uses MODFLOW, MT3D, and other simulation models to develop the response matrix or response surface equations employed in the final optimization model. To address nonlinear systems (e.g., unconfined aquifers) accurately, REMAX uses a modified response-matrix method. REMAX several nonlinear functions to represent a wide variety of nonlinear response surfaces. REMAX can be used for deterministic or reliability-based optimization problems. Decision variables are ground-water extraction/injection rates and/or surface water diversion rates. State …

US/REMAX is a computer program designed to assist water managers in developing optimal groundwater and/or surface water strategies for a wide range of management problems. It employs response matrix, regression and other methods adapted for nonlinear systems. US/REMAX performs deterministic or reliability-based, single- or multi-objective optimization. Decision variables are ground-water extraction/injection and/or surface water diversion. State variables include water flows, stages and concentrations. Hard coded objective functions and constraints are linear, nonlinear, integer or mixed integer. Special constraints can be added to address unusual situations.
