Abstract: The application of inverse transient analysis (ITA) to estimate the location and magnitude of lost lining and internal corrosion of metal pipelines is demonstrated for a field pipeline. The method uses a transient model ...

Abstract: Hydraulic transient field tests have been conducted in a water distribution network. Existing transient models are applied to model the measured responses, but poor matches are obtained apart from the estimation of the ...

Abstract: Excessive hydraulic transients in a water distribution system (WDS) can instantaneously damage equipment and infrastructure, while long-term pressure oscillations can contribute to pipe structural deterioration and eventually ...
