Abstract: Based on the finite element method, the numerical solution of the shallowwater equation for onedimensional (1D) unsteady flows was established. To respect the stability criteria, the time step of the method was dependent ...

Abstract: Prior research has recognized that the compound- and dual-technique-based branching redesign measures, used as alternatives to the conventional technique-based one, were effective in upgrading steel pipe-based pressurized ...

Abstract: This study analyzes the effect of the pipe material type on the transient flow behavior in a pumping system due to an accidental pump shutdown. The material types addressed in this study include steel and high- or low-density ...

Abstract: This study dealt with the capacity of the inline technique to upgrade steel-pipe-based hydraulic systems with respect to magnitude attenuation and pressure-wave oscillation period expansion. This technique consisted in ...

Abstract: This paper explored and compared the effectiveness of the inline and the branching redesign strategies used to control water-hammer surges initiated into existing steel piping systems. The piping system is handled, at its ...

Abstract: The branching technique demonstrated an effective ability to attenuate severe hydraulic-head magnitudes into existing steel-pipes-based hydraulic systems. However, there was no detailed exploration of circumferential-stress, ...
