This work focuses on the generation of tools to aid inspection and identify buried plastic
pipes in water supply systems (WSS). In our study we use ground penetrating system (GPR) …

Technical management of large water supply systems (WSS) is an increasingly complex
problem. Water companies managing these systems have witnessed how the mathematical …

This paper uses a multi-agent approach as a quick and easy tool for the interpretation and
analysis of the characteristics of Water Supply System (WSS) components when working on …

In order to identify the leak source in complex heating pipeline networks, a timely and
effective simulation of the leakage process was conducted. The open-source computational …

In this paper a combination of the multi-agent paradigm and a very well known clustering
technique is used for unsupervised classification of subsoil characteristics working on a …

1.0 Literature Review Since water pipelines are usually buried underground, detection of
leakage in the water distribution network presents a major challenge to engineers. These …

Cast iron water distribution pipes are used widely in the UK and worldwide. Corrosion of
these cast iron pipes often occurs due to an electrochemical process where the pipe is …

[EN] Water is an indispensable resource for human and economical welfare, and modern
society depends on complex, interconnected infrastructures to provide safe water to …

[EN] Over time, due to multiple operational and maintenance activities, the networks of water
supply systems (WSSs) undergo interventions, modifications or even are closed. In many …

[EN] In this paper, a ground penetrating radar (GPR) is used as a non-destructive method to
assess the buried elements of water supply systems (WSSs). The aim is the detection of …
