Pipe failures in water distribution systems can have a serious impact and hence it's
important to maintain the condition and integrity of the distribution system. This book …

In this research, a hybrid risk-based decision-making (HRDM) method is proposed, in which
by using pipe design parameters (PDPs), it is possible to determine a rehabilitation road …

Water distributions networks (WDNs) are exposed to multiple hazards, leading the network
to operate under a range of critical conditions. This paper explored the relationship between …

Water distribution networks are vulnerable to various contamination events that may be
accidental or purposeful. Sensors are required for online monitoring of water quality to …
