Abstract: A novel application of spline curves was developed for tracing average daily trends of water demand. These trends were used as input of a stochastic model to generate synthetic time series considering the number of water ...

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: Drop manholes are hydraulic devices typically employed to dissipate flow energy in high slope, urban drainage systems. The use of several drops of small height placed in series (drop manhole cascade) is a more economical ...

Abstract: The paper presents the results of the Battle of Postdisaster Response and Restoration (BPDRR) presented in a special session at the first International water distribution systems analysis & computing and control in the ...
