RISStatistical Inference of Sewer Pipe Deterioration Using Bayesian Geoadditive Regression Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Several deterioration models have been developed for prediction of the actual and future condition states of individual sewer pipes. However, most tools that have been developed assume a linear dependency between the ...
Graph-Theoretic Surrogate Measure to Analyze Reliability of Water Distribution System Using Bayesian Belief Network–Based Data Fusion Technique
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Reliability assessment is an integral component of the decision-making process in the planning, design, and operations of water distribution networks (WDNs). Two different approaches are used to evaluate the reliability ...
Operational Risk-Based Decision Making for Wastewater Pipe Management
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Recent advances in the development of wastewater pipe deterioration models allow a better quantification of the uncertainty in the likelihood of failure of pipes. However, the consequence of failure is subjected to many ...
Optimization of Water Distribution System Operation with Multiple Tanks and Pumps: Application for Asmara, Eritrea’s Water Supply System
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Pump energy consumption is the major operational cost of water distribution systems (WDS). Defining better pump operation policies can reduce the cost and the enhance service provided. The nonlinear hydraulic behavior of ...
