Water distribution systems are vulnerable to hazards that threaten water delivery, water
quality, and physical and cybernetic infrastructure. Water utilities and managers are …

Water distribution systems are susceptible to contamination events, which can occur due to
naturally occurring events, accidents or even malicious attacks. When a contamination event …

Simulation models for water distribution networks are used routinely for many purposes.
Some examples are planning, design, monitoring and control. However, under conditions of …

This paper presents a smart rainwater harvesting (RWH) system to address water scarcity in
Palestine. This system aims to improve the water harvesting capacity by using a shared …

Typically, computer-based tools built on mathematical models define the time-series
behavior of contaminants, in dissolved or colloidal form, within the spatial boundaries of …

Real‐time water quality control (WQC) in water distribution networks (WDN), the problem of
regulating disinfectant levels, is challenging due to lack of (i) a proper control‐oriented …

Drinking water utilities are increasingly facing the challenges of maintaining water quality,
and simultaneously complying with conflicting regulatory standards. One such challenge is …

This work proposes a modeling framework to quantify the effects of deliberate organic
contamination events on water distribution systems. A bacterial regrowth model and a first …

The problem of contamination event detection in water distribution systems has become one
of the most challenging research topics in water distribution systems analysis. Current …

Abstract A practical 4-stage-3-model framework is introduced that models and maps
pollutant concentrations in, and potential hazards of, municipal stormwater point-source …
