Water distribution networks require huge investment for construction. Involved people,
especially researchers, are always seeking to find a way for decreasing costs and achieving …

Water distribution networks (WDNs) must keep a proper level of service under a wide range
of operational conditions, and, in particular, the analysis of their resilience to pipe failures is …

While only a minimal fraction of global water resources is accessible for drinking water
production, their uneven distribution combined with the climate crisis impacts leads to …

One of the major challenges faced by water companies around the world is the high level of
water losses in distribution networks. This research paper presents a case study on the …

In order to improve the management and to better locate water losses, Water Distribution
Networks can be physically divided into District Meter Areas (DMAs), inserting hydraulic …

Water network partitioning (WNP) into District Meter Areas allows improving pressure
management, water budget, leaks detection, compared to classical redundantly looped …

Pipe and isolation valve failure in an urban water distribution network (WDN) causes service
interruption to the water users. It is important to identify and prioritize the maintenance of the …

Partitioning of water distribution networks (WDNs) into pressure management areas (PMAs)
or district metered areas (DMAs) is the most widely applied method for the efficient …

Water distribution networks (WDNs) represent essential civil infrastructures providing
freshwater for domestic and industrial uses. Pressure management in WDNs is a key issue …

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 …
