An Optimal Pipe Replacement Scheduling Model for Water Distribution Systems
While the idea of critical break rate of water distribution pipeline (defined as the break rate after which it is no longer economical to continuously repair) has been accepted in the literature and among the practicing engineers, the formula to obtain the critical break rate has remained elusive. …

A Comprehensive Decision Support System(CDSS) for Optimal Pipe Renewal using Trenchless Technologies
… the main itself loses strength over time and breaks; also, there is degradation of water quality and hydraulic capacity due to build of material within a main. The increasing repair and damage costs and degrading services demand that a deteriorating water main be replaced at an optimal time …

Dealing With Uncertainty in Engineering and Management Practices
… engineering and management cases to demonstrate their explicabilities and advantages. In the field (1), an integrated approach is presented to assess traffic noise impact under uncertainty (Peng and Mayorga, 2008). Three uncertain inputs, namely, traffic flow, traffic speed and traffic …
