Abstract: The writers would like to thank the discussers who, with their very precise and pertinent observations, will enable the writers to better define certain aspects of the methodology proposed in their paper.

Abstract: This paper presents a methodology to evaluate the reliability of water distribution systems that can be used in the design phase and for identifying repair works to be carried out on existing systems. The methodology is ...

Abstract: Undular hydraulic jumps in circular conduits are considered with an experimental approach. Based on previous findings in rectangular channels, this research indicates differences in terms of shape effects. All present ...

Abstract: The hydraulics of supercritical flow across manholes in sewers is explored using systematic experimentation. Due to the expansion at the manhole entrance an in-manhole wave is generated. Further, at the downstream manhole ...

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: Side weirs are hydraulic structures widely used in practice and extensively studied in the technical literature. The flow along a side weir is a classic example of spatially varied flow, the study of which is generally ...

Abstract: A reliable short-term forecasting model is fundamental to managing a water distribution system properly. This study addresses the problem of the efficient development of a deep neural network model for short-term forecasting ...
