Multiobjective Game Theory Model for Identifying Proactive Pipeline Rehabilitation Strategies in Water Distribution Systems

Abstract

AbstractWater distribution systems (WDSs) are crucial infrastructure for communities, and their substantial growth due to urbanization has increased their vulnerability to high-consequence hazards, such as earthquakes. Water utilities face challenges in ...Practical ApplicationsThe decision-making process for pipeline rehabilitation involves conflicting objectives: minimizing rehabilitation costs and maximizing water distribution system (WDS) absorptive resilience. Increased investment in rehabilitation ...
