This paper aims to solve three issues frequently present in the optimal placement of water
quality sensors for protecting water distribution systems (WDSs) from both accidental and …

This paper deals with the issue of the consistency of water distribution network (WDN)
modeling concerning the nature of demand for the optimal water quality sensor placement …

The most commonly applied strategies for optimal water quality sensor placement in
drinking water distribution systems are aimed at contamination early warning systems …

A method for optimizing sensor locations to effectively and efficiently detect contamination in
a water distribution network is presented here. The problem is formulated and solved as a …

One way to mitigate the risk of consumption of contaminated water in water distribution
networks is optimal placement of the quality sensors. A considerable challenge in this …

In the urban drainage sector, the problem of polluting discharges in sewers may act on the
proper functioning of the sewer system, on the wastewater treatment plant reliability and on …

Supplying modern water systems in smart cities requires the ability to monitor water quality
in the production plants and the distribution network. Protection against accidental or …

Drinking water quality monitoring in real time is of utmost importance to ensure public health.
Although water utilities, following the related legislative framework, monitor drinking water …

To satisfy their main goal, namely providing quality water to consumers, water distribution
networks (WDNs) need to be suitably monitored. Only well designed and reliable monitoring …

Abstract Water Distribution Networks (WDNs) are often susceptible to either accidental or
