Contamination source identification (CSI) is significant for water quality security and social stability when a contamination intrusion event occurs in water distribution systems (WDSs). However, in research, this is an extremely challenging task for...
The complexity and uncertainties affecting drinking water supply systems and threatening hazards require a comprehensive and effective risk assessment to increase the reliability of drinking water safety, especially for small or household systems. Th...
Pipe bursts in water distribution networks lead to considerable water loss and pose risks of bacteria and pollutant contamination. Pipe burst localisation methods help water service providers repair the burst pipes and restore water supply timely and...
