  1. 1. Vulnerability of a water distribution network from a hydraulic point of view

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Carl Stagne; Jacob Thomas Svantesson; [2023]
    Keywords : Vulnerability; Criticality; Water distribution network; Hydrualic modelling; EPANET; MIKE ; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : As the global population continues to grow and the demand for clean drinking water in-creases, the importance of a functioning water distribution network becomes evident. In the design and planning phase of a distribution network, a hydraulic model is a helpful tool for predicting consequences of an action and defining vulnerable parts of a network. READ MORE

  3. 2. Hydraulic Modeling and Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment of Intrusionin Water Distribution Networks Under Sustained Low-Pressure Situations

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Maryam Shakibi; [2022]
    Keywords : drinking water distribution network; EPANET; hydraulic modelling; low pressure; pathogen intrusion; Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment QMRA ; distributionsnät för dricksvatten; EPANET; hydraulisk modellering; lågtryck; patogen inläckage; Kvantitativ mikrobiell riskbedömning QMRA ;

    Abstract : Drinking water systems aim to remove, reduce, and prevent microbial contamination in water by usingmultiple barriers from catchments to consumers. Water distribution networks are vulnerable tocontamination from external sources if they lose their physical or hydraulic integrity. READ MORE

  4. 3. A Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment Associated with Cross-Connections in the Drinking Water Network in Combination with Hydraulic Modeling

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Fatin Alzuhairi; [2022]
    Keywords : EPANET; QMRA; Water distribution network; Health risk analysis; Cross-connections and backflow; Low pressure; Water quality; Simulation; Pathogen; EPANET; QMRA; vattendistributionsnät; hälsoriskanalys; korskoppling; lågtryck; vattenkvalitet; simulering; patogen;

    Abstract : Drinking water companies have the technology and responsibility to deliver safe and high-quality drinking water to the water distribution systems network (WDN). However, many events within the WDN, such as cross-connections and backflow, might degrade water quality and pose public health risks to consumers. READ MORE

  5. 4. Water Contamination Detection With Artificial Neural Networks

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Martin Gelin; Rikard Fridsén Skogsberg; [2020]
    Keywords : Water distribution network; Anomaly detec-tion; Artificial neural networks; Autoencoder; Machine Learning; Time-series;

    Abstract : Drinking water is one of our most important re- sources, so the ability to reliably monitor harmful contaminations in our water distribution network is vital. In order to minimize false alarms for water monitoring, while keeping a high sensitivity, a machine learning approach was evaluated in this project. READ MORE

  6. 5. Model based optimization of flow sensor locations in drinking water networks

    University essay from

    Author : Stedt Cristopher; [2020]
    Keywords : Leakage optimization sensor;

    Abstract : This thesis uses a model-based approach to finding optimal positions of flow datasensors in a water distribution network (WDN). Flow data sensors can be used toidentify and localize leaks in a network that lead to significant losses of both water and energy. READ MORE
