Coupled Data-Driven Evolutionary Algorithm for Toxic Cyanobacteria (Blue-Green Algae) Forecasting in Lake Kinneret
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)Cyanobacteria blooming in surface waters have become a major concern worldwide, as they are unsightly, and cause a variety of toxins, undesirable tastes, and odors. Approaches of mathematical process-based (deterministic), ... -
Using Stochastic Dynamic Programming to Support Water Resources Management in the Ziya River Basin, China
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)Water scarcity and rapid economic growth have increased the pressure on water resources and environment in Northern China, causing decreased groundwater tables, ecosystem degradation, and direct economic losses due to ... -
Deterministic Integrated Optimization Model for Sewage Collection Networks Using Tabu Search
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)This paper presents an integrated optimization model for designing sewage collection networks. The layout configuration is designed using the loop-by-loop cutting algorithm. Then, the network with a given layout is ... -
How Much is Too Much?: Challenges to Water Withdrawal and Consumptive Use Management
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014) -
Optimization Model for Planning Regional Water Resource Systems under Uncertainty
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)This study proposes an interval semiinfinite De Novo programming (ISIDP) method for the planning of water resource management systems under uncertainty. The ISIDP problem is settled by dividing it into two interactive ... -
Assessment of Surface Runoff Vulnerability to Climate Change in the Lerma-Chapala Basin, Mexico
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) suggests that vulnerability to climate change depends on three main factors: exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity. Each factor was evaluated in a hydrologic ... -

Medium-Term Urban Water Demand Forecasting with Limited Data Using an Ensemble Wavelet–Bootstrap Machine-Learning Approach
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)Accurate and reliable weekly and monthly water demand forecasting is important for effective and sustainable planning and use of urban water supply infrastructure. This study explored a hybrid wavelet–bootstrap–artificial ... -
Stream-Reach Identification for New Run-of-River Hydropower Development through a Merit Matrix–Based Geospatial Algorithm
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)Even after a century of development, the total hydropower potential from undeveloped rivers is still considered to be abundant in the United States. However, unlike evaluating hydropower potential at existing hydropower ... -
Optimal Implementation of Irrigation Practices: Cost-Effective Desertification Action Plan for the Pinios Basin
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)The effort to manage irrigation water use through the adoption and implementation of agricultural best management practices (BMPs) is crucial for meeting water bodies’ sustainability in water-deficient agricultural areas. ... -
Reliability Indicators for Water Distribution System Design: Comparison
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)When designing a water distribution system (WDS), it is imperative that the reliability of the network is taken into consideration. It is possible to directly evaluate the reliability of a WDS, although the calculation ... -
Reformulated Co-Tree Flows Method Competitive with the Global Gradient Algorithm for Solving Water Distribution System Equations
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)Many different methods have been devised to solve the nonlinear systems of equations that model water distribution networks. Probably the most popular is Todini and Pilati’s global gradient algorithm (GGA). Given the GGA’s ... -
Calibration of Rainfall-Runoff Model in Urban Watersheds for Stormwater Management Assessment
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)Physically based semidistributed rainfall-runoff models are an important tool for assessing decentralized green infrastructure alternatives in controlling combined sewer overflows (CSO). Few studies have analyzed reliable ... -
Efficacy of SWMM Application
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1991)The storm‐water management model (SWMM) is applied to a 10‐sq‐mi urbanized residential area. The application is intentionally constrained to a rather gross spatial scale (no modeling of storm sewer transport) in order to ... -
Urban Water Demand Forecasting: Review of Methods and Models
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)This paper reviews the literature on urban water demand forecasting published from 2000 to 2010 to identify methods and models useful for specific water utility decision making problems. Results show that although a wide ... -
