Hidden Markov Models for Pipeline Damage Detection Using Piezoelectric Transducers [PDF]
Oil and gas pipeline leakages lead to not only enormous economic loss but also environmental disasters. How to detect the pipeline damages including leakages and cracks has attracted much research attention. One of the promising leakage detection method is to use lead zirconate titanate (PZT) transducers to detect the negative pressure wave when ...

Development of a Leakage Target Setting Approach for South Korea Based on Economic Level of Leakage [PDF]
AbstractLeakage has become a crucial issue that needs to be addressed effectively by water suppliers in terms of economic management of water systems. A target setting method based on the ELL (Economic Level of Leakage) calculation is proposed in this paper.
