The efficient distribution of water is a subject of major concern for water utilities and
authorities [1]. While some leaks in water distribution networks (WDNs) are unavoidable …

Research in water distribution networks during recent decades has often focused on
calibration. There is no unique solution for this problem as the methodologies are developed …

The performance and success of model-based leak localization methods applied to water
networks highly depends on the uncertainty of the system considered. One of the main …

Water distribution network models are widely used by water companies. Consumer
demands are one of the main uncertainties in these models, but their calibration is not …

Automatic leak localization has been suggested to reduce the time and personnel efforts
needed to localize (small) leaks. Yet, the available methods require a detailed demand …

Abstract Model-based leak localization methods are currently developed and applied to real
cases. The performance and success of such methods depend highly both on models [Pérez …

The use of water distribution network (WDN) models is an extended practice [13].
Confidence on decisions taken upon such models depends highly on their accuracy [11] …

The leak localisation methodologies based on data and models are affected by both
uncertainties in the model and in the measurements. This uncertainty should be quantified …

Mathematical models are the basic tool that simulates the operation of the Water Distribution
System (WDS). Building such a tool is a complex task that requires as much detail as …

The efficient use of water resources is a subject of major concern for water utilities and
authorities. One of the main challenges in improving the efficiency of drinking-water …
