Optimisation of water distribution system design is a well-established research field, which
has been extremely productive since the end of the 1980s. Its primary focus is to minimise …

With the accelerated construction and aging of underground oil and gas pipelines,
trenchless technology (TT) has developed rapidly in recent years. This paper briefly …

This paper is intended to conduct a narrative review on the acid corrosion of sewer tunnel
concrete in the City of Edmonton—an investigation on the MIC (microbially induced …

Water distribution networks are crucial for supplying consumers with quality and adequate
water. A water distribution system comprises connected hydraulic components which ensure …

Critical water infrastructure systems (eg, drinking water treatment, transmission, and
distribution; and wastewater and stormwater collection and treatment) are critical functions of …

Among the main concerns of water companies are to maintain the optimal performance of
pipes in water distribution networks (WDNs); this is achieved by activities, such as renewal …

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 …

Abstract Pipe-in-pipe (PIP) has become an acceptable system for the rehabilitation and
repair of natural gas distribution networks. Damaged host pipes usually contain defects such …

This study uses a hybrid knowledge-based method for pipe renewal planning in Water
Distribution Systems (WDSs), which is useful when data are limited. The method is applied …

Polymeric spray lining is a trenchless pipe rehabilitation technique which is rapidly gaining
momentum, due to the increasing costs of open trenching or lift-and-relay replacement. An …
