Complex network analysis of water distribution systems [PDF]

Chaos: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear Science, 2011
This paper explores a variety of strategies for understanding the formation, structure, efficiency, and vulnerability of water distribution networks. Water supply systems are studied as spatially organized networks for which the practical applications of abstract evaluation methods are critically evaluated.

Failure monitoring in water distribution networks [PDF]

Water Science and Technology, 2006
An algorithm for the burst detection and location in water distribution networks based on the continuous monitoring of the flow rate at the entry point of the network and the pressure at a number of points within the network is presented. The approach is designed for medium to large bursts with opening times in the order of a few minutes and is ...

Trihalomethanes in Water Supply System and Water Distribution Networks [PDF]

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2021
The formation of trihalomethanes (THMs) in natural and treated water from water supply systems is an urgent research area due to the carcinogenic risk they pose. Seasonal effects and pH have captured interest as potential factors affecting THM formation in the water supply and distribution systems.

Topological Taxonomy of Water Distribution Networks [PDF]

Water, 2018
Water Distribution Networks (WDNs) can be regarded as complex networks and modeled as graphs. In this paper, Complex Network Theory is applied to characterize the behavior of WDNs from a topological point of view, reviewing some basic metrics, exploring their fundamental properties and the relationship between them. The crucial aim is to understand and
