To reduce leakage and improve service levels, water companies are increasingly using
statistical models of pipe failure using infrastructure, weather and environmental data …

The drinking water mains, mostly buried underground and stay there for decades, require
proper maintenance to prevent failures. Among different kinds of material, polyvinyl chloride …

The subject of this paper is a failure analysis of water supply failure frequency in one of the
cities in Poland. Operating data on the failure rate of water supply pipelines in the city were …

Predicting pipe failures using statistical modelling benefits from detailed knowledge of the
conditions and circumstances which influence such failures. Incorporating this knowledge …

This article explores what useful information can be retrieved from pipeline interiors using an
air-coupled ultrasonic array. Experiments are performed using an array, custom array …

Pipe failures in water distribution systems can have a serious impact and hence it's
important to maintain the condition and integrity of the distribution system. This book …

The condition of drainage pipes greatly affects the urban environment and human health.
However, it is difficult to carry out economical and efficient pipeline investigation and …

Soil deformation is believed to play a crucial role in the onset of failures in the underground
infrastructure. This article describes a method to generate a replacement-prioritisation map …

A growing population and urbanization place increased demands on water supply and
distribution networks. Pipelines are one of the most critical components of water supply …

Digitalization and knowledge management in the water sector, and their impacts on
performance, greatly depend on two factors: human capacity and digital maturity. To …
