Abstract: A capacity-weighted reliability surface is suggested as a tool to assess the condition of deteriorating water supply infrastructure. A method is developed for calculating the spatial variation in reliability throughout a ...

Abstract: Knowledge of the distribution of the raindrop sizes during a storm is important in many engineering applications. Since drop size information is usually expressed parametrically, it is important that the proper model to ...

Abstract: A strategy for prioritizing decisions for the maintenance of a water distribution system is developed. Using component and network reliability based on time‐varying connectivity concepts, the probabilities that water will ...

Abstract: A regionalization technique is employed to obtain estimates of water availability at ungaged potential small hydropower sites in the Philippines. The flow duration characteristics at representative locations across the ...

Abstract: An optimization model has been developed to generate pump schedules in real-time operation for a complex water supply system by considering major difficulties posed by a complicated tariff; especially demand charges, ...
