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 …

Water quality modelling in Water Distribution systems (WDS) is frequently affected by
uncertainties in input variables such as base demand and decay constants. When utilizing …

Past water distribution systems (WDS) management studies derived operation protocols to
maximize WDS reliability by using residual chlorine as the sole surrogate parameter for …

The water quality audit concept is an important feature in assessing the loss of disinfectant
