Abstract: The known formulations for steady-state hydraulics within looped water distribution networks are rederived in terms of linear and nonlinear transformations of the original set of partly linear and partly nonlinear equations ...

Abstract: In 2000, the resilience and failure indices were introduced as a convenient and compact tool to express respectively water-distribution network (WDN) surplus and deficit in satisfying users’ demand, in terms of delivered ...

Abstract: In recent years, pressure-driven analyses of water distribution systems using pressure-flow relationships (PFRs) were shown to be more computationally efficient than those based on flow-pressure relationships (FPRs), such ...

Abstract: This work introduces two novel methods to the solution of water distribution networks equipped with pressure-control valves based on the global-gradient algorithm (GGA). One method, which can be viewed as an extension of ...
