Localization and Quantification of Blockages in Water Distribution Networks Using a Mathematical Model
(ASCE, 2024/05/01)Blockage, which arises from accumulated materials like sand, stones, sediment, uncontrolled growth of tree roots within pipes, and the inadvertent partial closure of in-line valves, poses a pervasive challenge in the ... -
Modeling the Failures and Decommissioning of Water Mains and Water Service Lines with Time-Dependent Factors
(ASCE, 2024/04/01)Modeling the pipe failure phenomenon is essential for any water utility. The linear extension of the Yule process (LEYP), proposed in 2009, was intended to be a synthesis of the pipe failure models available at the time. ... -
Developing a PDA Head–Outflow Relationship from a Microscale Analysis
(ASCE, 2024/03/01)Pressure-driven analysis (PDA) frequently is adopted for water distribution system hydraulic simulation under pressure deficient conditions. Wagner’s equation is the most used head–outflow relationship (HOR) to represent ... -
Analytical Sensitivity Analysis and Optimization for Cost-Efficient Operation of Water Supply Systems
(ASCE, 2024/04/01)Water supply systems (WSS) transport water from the source to the population, requiring a significant amount of energy, particularly for hydraulic pumps. To improve the efficiency of WSS, the use of hydraulic models and ... -
Opportunities for Restoring Environmental Flows in the Rio Grande–Rio Bravo Basin Spanning the US–Mexico Border
(ASCE, 2024/02/01)The Rio Grande–Rio Bravo’s flow regime has been highly altered for more than 130 years, yet the river ecosystem still supports important biodiversity including numerous endangered species. More than 80% of water ... -
Leakage Detection in Water Distribution Systems Based on Logarithmic Spectrogram CNN for Continuous Monitoring

Semisupervised Clustering Approach for Pipe Failure Prediction with Imbalanced Data Set
(ASCE, 2024/02/01)In recent years, machine learning (ML) approaches have been used widely for water pipe condition assessment and failure prediction. These methods require a considerable amount of data from water distribution networks (WDNs). ... -
Pressure Sensor Placement for Leakage Detection and Calibration of Water Distribution Networks Based on Multiview Clustering and Global Sensitivity Analysis
(ASCE, 2024/05/01)Most previous studies in the field of sensor placement have focused on only one aim. In this study, pressure sensor placement is done for calibration and leakage detection simultaneously to use pressure data optimally to ... -
Seismic Performance Evaluation of Corroded Water Distribution Systems Considering Firefighting
(ASCE, 2024/02/01)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 ... -
Analysis and Modeling of Pressure Pipe Failures in Auckland, New Zealand
(ASCE, 2024/04/01)Pressure pipe failure is a common problem for water utilities worldwide and can result in high costs and disruption of customers. This study analyzed the failure rates of iron, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), asbestos cement ... -
Noise Removal for the Steady-State Pressure Measurements Based on Domain Knowledge of Water Distribution Systems
(ASCE, 2024/03/01)The pressure sensors have been widely used to capture the steady-state pressure data for the management of water distribution systems (WDSs). The background noise pollution in WDSs can lead to signal degradation, reducing ... -
