RISReducing the Complexity of Multiobjective Water Distribution System Optimization through Global Sensitivity Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study investigates the use of global sensitivity analysis as a screening tool to reduce the computational demands associated with multiobjective design and rehabilitation of water distribution systems (WDS). Sobol’s ...
Improving Information-Based Coordinated Operations in Interbasin Water Transfer Megaprojects: Case Study in Southern India
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Globally, interbasin water transfer (IBWT) projects worth $2.7 trillion seek to address existing and potential future water scarcity concerns. IBWTs present a challenging decision context with complex operational ...
Optimal Design of Water Distribution Systems Using Many-Objective Visual Analytics
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper reports the use of many-objective optimization for water distribution system (WDS) design or rehabilitation problems. The term many-objective optimization refers to optimization with four or more objectives. The ...
Bias Correction of Hydrologic Projections Strongly Impacts Inferred Climate Vulnerabilities in Institutionally Complex Water Systems
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Water-resources planners use regional water management models (WMMs) to identify vulnerabilities to climate change. Frequently, dynamically downscaled climate inputs are used in conjunction with land-surface models (LSMs) ...
State of the Art for Genetic Algorithms and Beyond in Water Resources Planning and Management
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: During the last two decades, the water resources planning and management profession has seen a dramatic increase in the development and application of various types of evolutionary algorithms (EAs). This observation is ...
Battle of the Water Networks II
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The Battle of the Water Networks II (BWN-II) is the latest of a series of competitions related to the design and operation of water distribution systems (WDSs) undertaken within the Water Distribution Systems Analysis ...
