In 2017, civil engineer Joseph Skupien was interested in trying GeoHECRAS, CivilGEO’s innovative river modeling software. With a distinguished career as a hydraulic engineer spanning more than 40 years, Skupien was accustomed to using the US Army Corps HEC-2 software and later the HEC-RAS software, and building ...
Centre Wellington is a partner with the City of Guelph and the Municipality of Chatham-Kent in a Showcasing Water Innovation project to optimize water distribution system operation. One of the goals of the project is to reduce overall energy consumption through “smart” pumping of the treated water based on system demand as determined by pressure measurements in the distribution ...
This study presents a methodology for assessing discharge uniformity from perforated pipe systems via hydraulic modeling. First, the requirements and conditions for the simulation of perforated pipe systems are investigated and the model basics are explained. ...
The use of two-dimensional (2D) storm water models has increased in recent years primarily due to advances in software, hardware and the availability of surface data. ...

Residential water demand is a random variable which influences greatly the performance of municipal water distribution systems (WDSs). The water request at network nodes reflects the behavior of the residential users, and a proper characterization of their water use habits is vital for the hydraulic system modeling. This study presents a stochastic approach for the characterization of the ...
Subsequent to the least cost design problem of water distribution systems (WDSs), optimal operation is probably the most explored topic. Since 1970 a variety of methods have been developed to address this problem. Although the proposed methods give theoretic ways for solving optimal operation problems of WDSs, there are little successful application cases in practice, especially when the ...
From February 2011 to December 2012, the Tallinn Water Company, AS Tallinna Vesi (ASTV), aimed at improving the previous hydraulic model creation procedures so that the model can be operatively updated through the available geographic information system, client information system (Navision), supervisory control and data acquisition system ...
Real-time control-Tools is a novel software framework for modeling real-time control and decision support in water resources systems. It integrates different control paradigms ranging from simple feedback control strategies with triggers, operating rules and controllers to advanced optimization-based approaches such as model predictive control ...
Water network partitioning represents one of the best methodologies for improving water balance and pressure control of a water distribution system in order to reduce water leakage. These techniques can be applied with greater effectiveness defining a smaller permanent network district, called a District Meter Area (DMA), achieved by the insertion of gate valves and flow meters. If the DMAs are ...
In this study, we focused on wood transport dynamics, and we have developed a numerical model to simulate wood transport coupled with a two-dimensional (2D) hydrodynamic model. ...
In recent years, engineering and design capabilities have improved through mechanical and hydraulic simulation software, advanced manufacturing technologies such as three-dimensional (3-D) printing and computer numerical control (CNC) machining as well as the extensive use of special metallurgies. ...
Urban drainage systems are frequently analysed using hydraulic modelling software packages such as InfoWorks CS or MIKE-Urban. ...
Traditional one dimensional (1D) models are used to simulate flow in river channels and gravity collection networks but are inadequate for simulating phenomenon such as significant street flooding and overbank flow in flood plains that occurs during extreme events. 1D/2D and 2D models have begun to be used but their complexity, cost and significant data ...

Successful modeling of wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) processes requires an accurate description of the plant hydraulics. ...
This paper presents a procedure based on the use of grey numbers for the calibration (with uncertainty) of pipe roughness in water distribution systems. The pipe roughness uncertainty is represented through the grey number amplitude (or interval). The procedure is of a wholly general nature and can be applied for the calibration (with uncertainty) of other parameters or quantities, such as nodal ...
Surveys of relic canals at the Oasis of Otrar in Kazakhstan have been used to re-construct patterns of agricultural water use for irrigation between AD700 and AD1500. Hydraulic simulation software was used to calculate the water carrying capacity of historical irrigation canal networks. An analysis of modern day irrigation systems has enabled the calibration of ...
