New generation pollutants, containing stable chemical compounds and complex structures,
have led to significant water pollution and environmental concerns. For the treatment of such …

The digitization of the water sector has led to the emergence of Smart Water Metering
Networks (SWMNs), which enable automated and continuous water consumption …

The primary objective of this work is to introduce a novel approach that modifies the method
for analyzing and assessing the risk of water supply network failure. The approach aligns …

Facing climate change, the already limited availability of drinking water will decrease in the
future, rendering drinking water an increasingly scarce resource. Considerable amounts of it …

When discussing “water security” and “water safety,” it is important to clarify that these
notions can be interpreted differently depending on the context. In an environmental and …

Chlorine is a common disinfectant used in water treatment. However, its reaction with
organic matter can lead to the formation of harmful byproducts, such as trihalomethanes …

This paper studies the problem of secure state estimation of networked switched systems in
the presence of denial-of-service (DoS) attacks, as well as disturbances and measurement …

A significant challenge when attempting to regulate the spatial-temporal concentration of a
disinfectant in a water distribution network is the large and uncertain delay between the time …

The conventional district metered areas (DMAs) bounded by closed valves reduce space of
emergency response actions to cope with system failure or emergency events for resilience …

Research on methods for planning and controlling water distribution networks gains
increasing relevance as the availability of drinking water will decrease as a consequence of …
