Over the years, anomaly detection of fluid pipes has been a focus of water authorities as well
as oil and gas operators to advance the operation and management of these mechanical …

Since the 1990s, pressure waves propagating in pressurized pipes during a transient event
have been re-evaluated both in the laboratory and in real systems as a way to obtain …

This paper concerns the use of Transient Test‐Based Techniques (TTBTs) for fault detection
in a long transmission main. It reports the results of two series of transient tests executed in a …

Condition assessment of water pipelines using fluid transient waves is a noninvasive
technique that has been investigated for the past 25 years. Approaches to identify different …

In this paper, criteria for the optimal and market-oriented design of the Smart-Portable
Pressure Wave Maker (S-PPWM) device are presented. The outlined criteria are based on …

Fault detection in subsea pipelines is a difficult problem for several reasons, and one of the
most important is the inaccessibility of the system. This criticality can be overcome by using …

To date, the use of matched-field processing (MFP) for leak detection in pipes has been
limited to cases where the mismatch between data and model is assumed to be random and …

In this work, several important issues and solutions are considered in order to develop a
method for multiple leak detection in pipe network systems. To relax the model complexity …

In the last decades several reliable technologies have been proposed for fault detection in
water distribution networks (DNs), whereas there are some limitations for transmission …

Water distribution systems are critical to the functioning of our society, conveying drinking
water to the tap from remote sources. Due to their age and other environmental and …
