Acoustical wave propagation in buried water filled pipes
… layered media with a specific application in water-filled underground pipes. The problem is studied in two stages: First the pipe is considered to be very stiff in relation to the contained fluid and then the stiffness of the pipe and the soil are taken into account. In both cases the solution …

Thermodynamics of Buried Water in Protein Cavities and Revised Algorithms for Introducing Polarizability to Molecular Dynamics Simulations
Free energy calculations for the transfer of a water molecule from the pure liquid to an interior cavity site in a protein are presented. Three different protein cavities, in bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor (BPTI), the I106A mutant of lysozyme, and in the I76A mutant of barnase, represent very …

Backfill pressures within a reinstated trench: The Gatineau field project.
… of shrinking municipal budgets and aging water distribution system infrastructure, the National Research Council of Canada undertook a joint research project with the City of Gatineau, PQ, to better understand the nature of backfill pressures acting through the reinstated trench and upon …

Data-Driven Approaches in Water Pipe Condition Assessment and Failure Prediction
The increasing frequency of failures in ageing water distribution networks has created significant operational, financial, and environmental challenges for utility providers. This PhD research presents a novel integrated approach for predictive maintenance of buried water pipes, combining machine …

A Mechanistic Analysis Based Decision Support System for Scheduling Optimal Pipeline Replacement
Failure of pipes in water distribution systems is a common occurrence especially in large cities. The failure of a pipe results in: loss of water; property damage; interruption of service; decreased system performance; and the financial cost of restoring the failed pipe. The cost of replacement and …
