a decrease in natural resources and their non-uniform distribution can affect social relationships between residents ofwatersheds, creating conflict and shifting groupings. the present study used the network analysis method to test thehypothesis that change in hydrologic parameters and water shortages in the village of tutang has led to the new groupingsin the social cooperation network of the ...

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 ...

water quality assessment provides a scientific basis for water resources development and management. this case study proposes a factor analysis- hopfield neural network model (fhnn) based on factor analysis method and hopfield neural network method. the results showed that the factor analysis (fa) technique was introduced to identify important water quality parameters. results revealed that bio...

This paper summarises the impact of major earthquakes, 2010–2011, on Christchurch’s water supply network and what recovery measures have been applied, what worked well, what did not and why. A number of issues related to the open nature of the Christchurch water supply network were identified during earthquakes. It was difficult to manage large water supply pressure zones during the post-earthq...

background: one of the key issues in determining the quality of water in rivers is to create a water quality control network with a suitable performance. the measured qualitative variables at stations should be representative of all the changes in water quality in water systems. since the increase in water quality monitoring stations increases annual monitoring costs, recognition of the station...

measuring sensitivity of hydraulic structures is considered as an approach for evaluation of water projects performance, due to lower distribution efficiency in irrigation and drainage project schemes. sensitivity analysis approach for irrigation structures is one of flow analysis methods which are developed in recent years in order to measure the behavior of flow in hydraulic structures in an ...
