The water and sewage sector is responsible for approximately 3.5% of energy consumption
in the European Union (EU). Leaks causing water losses in water distribution systems …

Designing of District metered areas (DMA) schemes is a key element in developing a
technique for detecting and removing unreported leaks in a water distribution system (WDS) …

Active leakage control (ALC) has an important place in the management and prevention of
leaks in water or/and gas distribution systems. However, cost–benefit components and the …

Water distribution systems are made up of many interdependent elements that enable water
supply to meet a demand that is variable in time and space. One of the main concerns for …

The paper discusses the results of a simulation analysis to evaluate the potential of
rehabilitation measures and active pressure control strategies for leakage reduction in a …

A matlab‐based educational software (UAleaks) has been developed to consider the effect
of water losses when solving the hydraulic problem in water pressurized networks. The …

Drinking water utilities face significant challenges in ensuring a reliable and safe supply of
water in the face of increasing water demands and limited resources. Aging supply networks …

In the operation of water distribution networks in cities, leakage from pipes always causes
problems for human health and for the environment. Leakage openings in pipes may exist in …

Operational and investment costs increase due to aging of the network, increasing the
failure rate, leakage and the water demand, new investments and energy consumption …

The detection of the water leakages is significantly important in different underground
pipeline networks due to the lack of fresh water in today's life. Fast detection and accurate …
