The paper describes KURT, an autonomous robot platform prototype that is able to navigate through a network of sewage pipes. KURT is a six-wheeled vehicle; it has modular, layered hardware and control architectures. Its sensor connguration consists mainly of stationary and one exible ultrasound transducers and of two inclinometers. In experiments run in a test sewerage system consisting of conc...

Reliable estimation of sewage flow rates is essential for the proper design of sewers, pumping stations, and treatment plants. The design of the various components of the sewerage system should be based on the most critical flow rates with a focus on extremely low and peak flow rates that would be sustained for a duration related to the acceptable limits of behavior of the components under cons...

This study proposes a data-based strategy for prioritizing sewerage services and developing consumer-centric asset management systems. Sewerage systems are essential infrastructure, but resource-intensive, governments have faced challenges due to limited budgets aging facilities. Most countries still in the early stages of adopting approaches. By using mixed logit model, this identified heterog...

In the present study, impact of construction sewerage network (2014) on groundwater quality was studied example a middle-sized settlement in Great Hungarian Plain and changes water were assessed using GIS multivariate statistical analysis. As result pollution that has been going for decades, supply municipality become heavily polluted. period before (2011–2013), clear spatial differences shown ...
