From a sustainable development perspective, reducing hot water consumption poses the
opportunity for increasing water and energy efficiency simultaneously. Comparing with the …

Accurate and efficient prediction of electric water boiler (EWB) energy consumption is
significant for energy management, effective demand response, cost minimisation, and …

Smart meters installed at the user-level provide a new data source for managing water
infrastructure. This research explores the use of machine learning methods, including …

Water age in drinking water systems is often used as a proxy for water quality but is rarely
used as a direct input in assessing microbial risk. This study directly linked water ages in a …

In this study, we used modeling with stochastic demands to assess free chlorine
concentrations in premise plumbing systems. Different occupancy scenarios and the use of …

Higher water ages are linked with water quality decline as chlorine dissipates, temperatures
become more favorable for microbial growth, and metals and organic matter leach from the …

Protection of the water system is paramount due to the negative consequences of
contaminated water on the public health. Water resources are one of the critical …

In the smart cities context, real-time knowledge of residential water consumption has
become increasingly important, especially given the fast evolution of sensors, ICT and the …

It is crucial to forecast the water demand accurately for supplying water efficiently and stably
in a water supply system. In particular, accurately forecasting short-term water demand helps …

This study examines the impact of advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) end-user demand
metering failure on water distribution system (WDS) operation and management. To address …
