Novel Cellular Automata Approach to Optimal Water Distribution Network Design
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper proposes a novel heuristic-based and cellular automata-inspired approach to the optimal design of water distribution networks. The design of water distribution networks is of central importance to the water ...
Optimal Distribution and Control of Storage Tank to Mitigate the Impact of New Developments on Receiving Water Quality
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Storage tanks are commonly installed in a combined sewer system to control the discharge of combined sewer overflows that have been identified as a leading source for receiving water pollution. The traditional approach to ...
Derivation of Pareto Front with Genetic Algorithm and Neural Network
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: It is common knowledge that the optimal values of the calibrated parameters of a rainfall-runoff model for one model response may not be the optimal values for another model response. Thus, it is highly desirable to derive ...
The Battle of the Water Sensor Networks (BWSN): A Design Challenge for Engineers and Algorithms
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Following the events of September 11, 2001, in the United States, world public awareness for possible terrorist attacks on water supply systems has increased dramatically. Among the different threats for a water distribution ...
