Seismic Performance Evaluation of Corroded Water Distribution Systems Considering Firefighting
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Large earthquakes often damage water pipelines and disrupt the functionality of water distribution systems (WDS). This paper investigates the hydraulic performance of WDS following an earthquake, taking into account the ...
Time-Dependent Reliability Analysis of Buried Water Distribution Network: Combined Finite-Element and Probabilistic Approach
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Corrosion deterioration is the predominant factor for a large number of cast iron (CI) water main breaks. The reliability of CI pipelines decreases overtime as corrosion growth on pipe walls significantly reduces the ...
