abstract background: the pressure of consumption spots in eater supply systems is one of the most important hydraulic parameters can be used in optimized management of water distribution networks. since the pressure has some different effects on various parameters of the network management including its hydraulic functions, reliability, stability and leakage, its control is of great importance ...

extended abstract abstract pressure management is an effective method for water demand management. for evaluation of the effects of pressure changes on leakage level of water networks, the favad equation is usually used. however, in this equation, exponent of pressure parameter (n) needs to be determined. for estimation of n, either some information about the leak opening is necessary or networ...

in last decade it is almost impossible to not seen anything about water resource crisis and water shortage in natural resources exploitation and use reports. such information encourages decision makers and researchers to looking for solutions in relation to this problem and sustainable management of water resources. in this regard, first step towards sustainable management of water resources is...

While many water management tools exist, these systems are not usually interconnected and therefore cannot communicate between one another, preventing Integrated Water Resources Management to be fully achieved. This paper presents the solution proposed by WatERP project * where a novel solution enables better matching between water supply and demand from holistic perspective. Subsystems that co...

water is one of the most valuable natural resources in human societies which is demanded by different parts of the society, and as one of the main inputs of production in agriculture has a special role in the agricultural sustainable development. nowadays, the consumption of water is more than the supply, and its highest consumption is in agriculture. this study scrutinized the role of manageme...

Water issues in Australia have been viewed in the context of diminishing and uncertain water security and increasing demand. Managing water demand and expanding existing water supply are priorities for Australian water management institutions. Water prices are rising or set to rise in most parts of the country, there are rebates to households who install water saving devices and appliances, and...

The objective of the study examines the impact of industrialization and financial development on water resources, in the specific context of Pakistan. Data set from 19752009 are taken for time series analysis. The result reveals that economic growth positively linked with the water resource, as water plays a pivotal role in the economic development of a country. Thus limiting this resource woul...

A uniform water or feed consumption pattern is required for assessment of changes in pig health and well-being. Water consumption rate was measured and monitored continuously in pigs from 4 to 11 weeks of age. The study comprised three herds and 18 batches of pigs each with 400-900 animals. The management system was “all-in all-out”. Water consumption was measured electronically and data were t...
