Graph theory (GT) and complex network theory play an increasingly important role in the
design, operation, and management of water distribution networks (WDNs) and these tasks …

Over the past few decades, the concept of resilience has emerged as an important
consideration in the planning and management of water infrastructure systems. Accordingly …

This study investigates different pipe recovery strategies of water distribution networks
(WDNs) from the seismic resilience perspective. A demand-based seismic resilience index …

This paper proposes a lifecycle operational resilience assessment framework of urban water
distribution networks (WDNs), taking accidents, pipe deterioration, and restoration into …

Abstract Water Distribution Networks (WDN) are complex and highly interconnected
systems. To maintain operation under failure conditions, WDNs should have built-in …

Many water supply systems, conceived to operate in centralized manner, face difficulties to
adapt to dynamic changes, such as population growth, city extension, and industrial …

Reliability assessment is an integral component of the decision-making process in the
planning, design, and operations of water distribution networks (WDNs). Two different …

Abstract The Segment-Valve (SV) model can be utilized to analyze the reliability of water
distribution networks (WDNs). However, it often focuses on the impact of segment failures on …

This paper proposes a three-stage resilience concept that takes into account reliability,
vulnerability and recovery resilience of water distribution networks (WDNs) from three …

Recovery of damaged water supply systems after severe earthquakes is one of the priorities
to return to normal conditions. Water supply systems are intrinsically interdependent with …
