Water supply systems (WSS) are intensive energy demanding infrastructures relying on
water storage tanks and pumping systems for delivering water to consumers which face …

Environmental engineers continue to rely on the leading resource in the field on the
principles and practice of water resources engineering. The second edition now provides …

In recent decades, research on leak detection and localization in water distribution networks
has been an area of growing interest in both water management and fault detection. In the …

This research article presents a model-based framework for detecting and localizing leaks in
water distribution networks (WDNs). The framework uses optimization and systematic search …

Calibration is a process of comparing model results with field data and making the
appropriate adjustments so that both results agree. Calibration methods can involve formal …

Modern water distribution networks (WDNs) are complex and difficult to manage due to
increased level of urbanization, varying consumer demands, ageing infrastructure …

Hydraulic models have been widely used for design, analysis, and operation of water
distribution systems. As with all hydraulic models, water demands are one of the main …

A new approach is proposed for calibrating hydraulic network models. This procedure uses
a nonlinear optimization algorithm along with a standard, off-the-shelf, network solver. Pipe …

This review paper is devoted to a brief overview of results and models concerning flows in
networks and channels of networks. First of all, we conduct a survey of the literature in …

Comparisons between field data and model results need to be made with “good” field data.
Water distribution models are used to simulate a variety of conditions, including extreme flow …
