Reservoir Design and Operation with Variable Lake Hydrology
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)This research quantifies the impact of lake evaporation and rainfall on optimal reservoir capacity and water yield. A reservoir design and operation model was developed and applied to the Santa Ynez River basin of central ... -
Contribution of Neural Networks for Modeling Trihalomethanes Occurrence in Drinking Water
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)The presence of chlorination by-products such as trihalomethanes (THMs) in drinking water has become an issue of particular concern for utility managers. Modeling THM occurrence in water may be a valuable tool for decision ... -
Climate Change and Water Resources in Lebanon and the Middle East
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)While the extent of human-induced global warming is inconclusive, the vulnerability of natural systems to rapid changes in climate patterns is regarded as one of the most challenging issues in recent years. Water resources ... -
Discussion of “Comparison of ANNs and Empirical Approaches for Predicting Watershed Runoff” by Jagadeesh Anmala, Bin Zhang, and Rao S. Govindaraju
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002) -
Water Price Influence on Apartment Complex Water Use
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)Winter and summer water demand of apartments in Tucson, Ariz., is analyzed for 308 apartment complexes in the Tucson Water and Flowing Wells water districts. A general regression model revealed that water price, value per ... -

Comparison of Fuzzy and Nonfuzzy Optimal Reservoir Operating Policies
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)This paper compares reservoir operating policies obtained from fuzzy and nonfuzzy explicit stochastic dynamic programming. The reservoir operation problem for the Mansour Eddahbi dam in Morocco can be formulated as either ... -
Case Study of Impact of Total Maximum Daily Load Allocations on Nitrate Leaching
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)An analysis of the impact of total maximum daily load (TMDL) allocations on the potential leaching of nitrates to groundwater in the Muddy Creek/Dry River watershed of Virginia is presented. The Muddy Creek/Dry River ... -
Discussion of “Optimal Operation of Water Distribution Pumps Considering Water Quality” by A. Burcu Altan Sakarya and Larry W. Mays
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002) -
Monterey County Water Recycling Project: Institutional Study
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)This paper examines the institutional origins and functioning of the Monterey County Water Recycling Project (MCWRP), a centralized tertiary-treatment facility that began operating in April, 1998, and delivers urban recycled ... -
Costs for Water Supply Distribution System Rehabilitation
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)There is growing concern over the need to rehabilitate, replace, and repair drinking water distribution systems and wastewater collection systems in the United States. A recent survey conducted by the U.S. Environmental ... -
Advection-Dispersion-Reaction Modeling in Water Distribution Networks
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)An Eulerian-Lagrangian numerical solution for the advection-dispersion equation in water supply networks is presented. Because of the dispersion term, the numerical scheme produces a large linear system of equations. A ... -
Sustainable Development — Risk and Uncertainty
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002) -
Water Quality Operation with a Blending Reservoir and Variable Sources
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)A linear programming approach is used within a simulation model to manage water quality for an urban water supply agency with a blending reservoir and a raw water source of variable quality, the Sacramento–San Joaquin ... -
Cost Models for Water Supply Distribution Systems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)A major challenge for society in the 21st century will be replacement, design, and optimal management of urban infrastructure. It is estimated that the current worldwide demand for infrastructure investment is approximately ... -
Facility Location Model for Booster Disinfection of Water Supply Networks
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)Secondary or postdisinfection is widely used to maintain protective levels of disinfectant within water distribution systems. In contrast to conventional methods that apply disinfectant only at the treatment works, booster ... -
Threshold Break Rate for Pipeline Replacement in Water Distribution Systems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)A comprehensive review of pipe replacement analyses is presented, from which an economically sustainable threshold break rate for replacement of pipelines in deteriorating water distribution systems is derived that yields ... -
Potential Impacts of Global Warming on Groundwater in Eastern Massachusetts
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2002)The possible impacts of climate change induced by global warming on a highly permeable, unconfined aquifer located in the humid northeastern U.S. is analyzed for the years 2030 and 2100. The groundwater model MODFLOW is ...
