Pressure Reducing Valves (PRV) have been widely used as a device to control pressure at nodes in water distribution networks and thus reduce leakages. However, an energy dissipation takes place during PRV operation. Thus, micro-hydropower turbines and, m...

This paper proposes a combined management strategy for monitoring water distribution networks (WDNs). This strategy is based on the application of water network partitioning (WNP) for the creation of district metered areas (DMAs) and on the installation ...

Water distribution networks are complex systems that aid in the delivery of water to residential and non-residential areas. However, the networks can be affected by different types of faults, which could lead to the wastage of treated water. As such, the...

This paper presents and demonstrates a novel scenario-building methodology that integrates contextual and future time uncertainty into the performance assessment of water distribution networks (WDNs). A three-step approach is proposed: (i) System context...

In the wake of the terrorist attacks of 11 September 2001, extensive research efforts have been dedicated to the development of computational algorithms for identifying contamination sources in water distribution systems (WDSs). Previous studies have ext...

Providing water with adequate quality to users is one of the main concerns for water utilities. In most countries, this is ensured through the introduction of disinfectants, such as chlorine, which are subjected to decay over time, with consequent loss o...

In this paper, several methods for the calculation of water quality evolution in drinking water distribution networks are analysed. The Lagrangian Time-Driven method has been implemented in the Epanet simulation software since version 2.0. In version 2.2...

Chlorine decay over time and distance travelled poses challenges in maintaining consistent chlorine levels from treatment plants to demand nodes in water distribution networks (WDNs). Many studies have focused on optimizing chlorine booster systems and a...

The uneven spatial and temporal distribution of water resources has consistently been one of the most significant limiting factors for social development in many regions. Furthermore, with the intensification of climate change, this inequality is progres...
