Graph theory (GT) and complex network theory play an increasingly important role in the
design, operation, and management of water distribution networks (WDNs) and these tasks …

Infrastructure resilience is quite an emerging topic that has captured tremendous interest
among researchers and practitioners. Resilience of water distribution networks (WDNs) …

In many real, directed networks, the strongly connected component of nodes which are
mutually reachable is very small. This does not fit with current theory, based on random …

This paper proposes a resilience-based pipe optimal recovery model of water distribution
networks (WDNs). First, the time-dependent consumer demands are simulated to reflect the …

Because consideration of segments and valves is essential for evaluating the reliability and
resilience of water distribution networks (WDNs) when shutdowns are required, a quick …

Trophic coherence, a measure of a graph's hierarchical organisation, has been shown to be
linked to a graph's structural and dynamical aspects such as cyclicity, stability and normality …

Many real-world networks are directed, sparse, and hierarchical, with a mixture of
feedforward and feedback connections with respect to the hierarchy. Moreover, a small …

Tanzania water supply systems (WSSs) are facing resilience problems, compromising the
quality and coverage of water supply services during floods. The expected rise in flood …

Knowing which nodes are influential in a complex network and whether the network can be
influenced by a small subset of nodes is a key part of network analysis. However, many …

The necessity of timely access to care highlights the importance of studying the resilience of
the access to healthcare networks. Therefore, this research aims to develop a framework for …
