Predicting Health Risks from Intrusion into Drinking Water Pipes over Time
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)This exploratory study uses corrosion rates in aging metal pipes to predict the number of holes in drinking water supply systems over time. Using this estimate of the number of holes, it is possible to estimate the volume ... -
Pressure-Driven Modeling of Cyber-Physical Attacks on Water Distribution Systems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)Water distribution systems are becoming increasingly vulnerable to cyber-physical attacks as they are further augmented with otherwise helpful monitoring and control devices. Simulating the hydraulic responses of networks ... -
Evaluating Flood Risk Reduction by Urban Blue-Green Infrastructure Using Insurance Data
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)One of many important features of blue-green infrastructure is the ability to lower flood risks by detention of stormwater. This ability of flood risk reduction has for the first time been evaluated with empirical data in ... -
Balancing Hydropower Development and Ecological Impacts in the Mekong: Tradeoffs for Sambor Mega Dam
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)Home to one of the world’s most biodiverse and productive freshwater fisheries, the Mekong River basin provides food and economic security to some 60 million people. The extensive hydropower development planned for ... -
Battle of the Water Networks District Metered Areas
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)The Battle of Water Networks District Metered Areas (BWNDMA) was the latest of the Battle of Water Networks competition series held at the 18th Water Distribution Systems Analysis Conference (WDSA 2016) as part of ASCE’s ... -
Reliability Analysis of Water Distribution Systems Using Physical Probabilistic Pipe Failure Method
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)Water distribution systems (WDSs) are among the most essential infrastructure systems for the sustenance of societies. Therefore, their continued reliability is of utmost importance. However, the reliability of WDSs decreases ... -
Role of Heterogeneous Behavioral Factors in an Agent-Based Model of Crop Choice and Groundwater Irrigation
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)Unsustainable groundwater use has led to the lowering of groundwater levels and the degradation of groundwater-dependent ecosystems worldwide. Integrated hydrologic-ecological-economic models have been developed to simulate ... -
Clustering for Real-Time Response to Water Distribution System Contamination Event Intrusions
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)The 2013 Boston Marathon attack demonstrated the complexity of real-time response to such occurrences. The procedures used by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) at the Boston event to cluster and mitigate the event ... -
Benchmarking Study of Water Distribution System Solution Methods
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)In recent years, a number of new water distribution system (WDS) solution methods have been developed. These methods have been aimed at improving the speed and reliability of WDS simulations. However, to date, these methods ... -
Multicriteria Decision Analysis of Drinking Water Source Selection in Southwestern Bangladesh
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)Decision analysis methods provide opportunities to explore alternatives for drinking water resources in impoverished, rural regions of developing countries. With varying success, southwestern Bangladesh communities currently ... -
Optimal Dynamic Pump Triggers for Cost Saving and Robust Water Distribution System Operations
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)In water distribution systems, pumps are used for supplying water from low points to elevated tanks that supply the network’s demands. The pumps are operated in different ways that could be distinguished by the complexity ... -
Framework to Establish Economic Level of Leakage for Intermittent Water Supplies in Arid Environments
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)Municipalities in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) are putting serious efforts into reducing the water losses to around 8% (i.e., national benchmark) of supplied water through active leakage control (ALC). In this ... -
Economic–Engineering Method for Assessing Trade-Offs between Instream and Offstream Uses
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)Rivers provide multiple water uses and services, including offstream uses that are valued economically and instream uses, such as recreation and ecosystem preservation, that are rarely valued economically. In many countries, ... -
A Novel Leakage-Detection Method Based on Sensitivity Matrix of Pipe Flow: Case Study of Water Distribution Systems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)Urban water supply networks are important infrastructure to ensure the daily water consumption of urban residents and factories. However, the scope of leakage detection is large and inaccurate using the traditional ... -
Eco-Layouts in Water Distribution Systems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)To achieve maximum efficiency in water pressurized transport, it is necessary to perform a global analysis, whenever possible starting from the system’s conception. The first stage of the process is the network layout, the ... -
Real-Time Identification of Cyber-Physical Attacks on Water Distribution Systems via Machine Learning–Based Anomaly Detection Techniques
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019)Smart water infrastructures are prone to cyber-physical attacks that can disrupt their operations or damage their assets. An algorithm was developed to identify suspicious behaviors in the different cyber-physical components ... -
