Abstract: This paper considers the sectorization of a large water distribution network into district metered areas (DMAs) and simultaneously optimizes rehabilitation of the network with new pipes, control valves, and storage tanks. ...

Abstract: The problem of sensor placement for early-warning detection systems is a topical issue for industry and utilities who want to equip their networks with such technology. Solving the problem entails finding the best sensor ...

Abstract: Water utilities are challenged to reduce their water losses through detecting, localizing, and repairing leaks as quickly as possible in their aging distribution systems. In this work, we solve this challenging problem by ...

Abstract: Water distributions networks (WDNs) are exposed to multiple hazards, leading the network to operate under a range of critical conditions. This paper explored the relationship between the impact of anomalous events (AEs) ...
