Allocation of the internal demand in a line to the end nodes of the line
may help reduce the size of the mathematical model of a water distribution network
(WDN). Such a reduction is desirable as it allows hydraulic ...
In this work, statistical methodologies are used to generate automatic
probabilistic maps of pipe layouts in water supply systems (WSS) based
on street surveys using ground penetrating radar (GPR). Probabilistic maps ...

[EN] Water utilities cannot operate on the basis of a regular business aiming at just
increasing sales to increase revenue. They rather have to discourage demand for the sake
of environmental and resource sustainability . ...

[EN] This document is intended to be a presentation of session ST36 of CMN2017,
placing this session in the appropriate context to understand its motivation and guide its
content. The circumstances that occurred in 2016 ...
[EN] We propose a methodological tool for examining the layout and revealing the concealed characteristics of urban water supply systems (WSS). For this purpose, we use underground images obtained with ground penetrating ...
[EN] This document shows some aspects regarding water leakage time propagation through the underground, in controlled laboratory conditions, using a drilled PVC pipe, through the interpretation of GPR images. The extraction ...
Sectorization is a process aimed at efficiently managing Water Supply Networks (WSNs). There are many large WSNs where the number of sectors into which they might be subdivided is initially unknown. Our method uses concepts ...
This paper uses a multi-agent approach as a quick and easy tool for the interpretation and
analysis of the characteristics of Water Supply System (WSS) components when working
on a collection of Ground Penetrating Radar ...
