Strategic Assessment of Dam Overtopping Reliability Using a Stochastic Process Approach
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Earth-fill dam overtopping could pose significant threats to public safety if the necessary reliability assessments are not taken into consideration in the design process. Dam overtopping is caused by several hydrometeorological ...
Design of District Metered Areas for Existing Water Distribution Networks
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The management and operation of water distribution networks (WDNs) by establishing district metered areas (DMAs), especially in existing and old WDNs, has many advantages, including water leakage control, ease of operation, ...
Choosing the Best Algorithm for Optimum Locating and Adjustment of Pressure-Reducing Valves in Water Distribution Networks
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The high pressure of water distribution networks (WDNs) increases leakage, bursts, and water consumption. Pressure-reducing valves (PRVs) are widely used in WDNs because of their flexibility and effectiveness in pressure ...
