A review of graph and complex network theory in water distribution networks: Mathematical foundation, application and prospects.

Water research
Graph theory (GT) and complex network theory play an increasingly important role in the design, operation, and management of water distribution networks (WDNs) and these tasks were originally often heavily dependent on hydraulic models. Facing the ge...

Real-time water quality prediction in water distribution networks using graph neural networks with sparse monitoring data.

Water research
Ensuring the safety and reliability of drinking water supply requires accurate prediction of water quality in water distribution networks (WDNs). However, existing hydraulic model-based approaches for system state prediction face challenges in model ...

Domain-informed variational neural networks and support vector machines based leakage detection framework to augment self-healing in water distribution networks.

Water research
The reduction of water leakage is essential for ensuring sustainable and resilient water supply systems. Despite recent investments in sensing technologies, pipe leakage remains a significant challenge for the water sector, particularly in developed ...

Anaerobic Digestion as a Core Technology in Addressing the Global Sanitation Crisis: Challenges and Opportunities.

Environmental science & technology
Successfully addressing the complex global sanitation problem is a massive undertaking. Anaerobic digestion (AD), coupled with post-treatment, has been identified as a promising technology to contribute to meeting this goal. It offers multiple benefi...

A Probabilistic Digital Twin for Leak Localization in Water Distribution Networks Using Generative Deep Learning.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Localizing leakages in large water distribution systems is an important and ever-present problem. Due to the complexity originating from water pipeline networks, too few sensors, and noisy measurements, this is a highly challenging problem to solve. ...

Shall we always use hydraulic models? A graph neural network metamodel for water system calibration and uncertainty assessment.

Water research
Representing reality in a numerical model is complex. Conventionally, hydraulic models of water distribution networks are a tool for replicating water supply system behaviour through simulation by means of approximation of physical equations. A calib...

Measuring the crop water demand and satisfied degree using remote sensing data and machine learning method in monsoon climatic region, India.

Environmental science and pollution research international
Supply of water is one of the most significant determinants of regional crop production and human food security. To promote sustainable management of agricultural water, the crop water requirement assessment (CropWRA) model was introduced as a tool f...

Leak detection and localization in water distribution networks using conditional deep convolutional generative adversarial networks.

Water research
This paper explores the use of 'conditional convolutional generative adversarial networks' (CDCGAN) for image-based leak detection and localization (LD&L) in water distribution networks (WDNs). The method employs pressure measurements and is based on...

Fuzzy Control of Pressure in a Water Supply Network Based on Neural Network System Modeling and IoT Measurements.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
As hydroenergetic losses are inherent to water supply systems, they are a frequent issue which water utilities deal with every day. The control of network pressure is essential to reducing these losses, providing a quality supply to consumers, saving...

Water demand in watershed forecasting using a hybrid model based on autoregressive moving average and deep neural networks.

Environmental science and pollution research international
Increasing water demand is exacerbating water shortages in water-scarce regions (such as India, China, and Iran). Effective water demand forecasting is essential for the sustainable management of water supply systems in watersheds. To alleviate the c...
