Contribution for the vulnerability assessment of water pipe network systems
Pinto, Jorge; Afonso, Luís; Varajão, João; Bentes, Isabel; Varum, Humberto; Duarte, António A. L. S.; Agarwal, JitendraWater pipe network systems are key public utilities which require being robust, protected and preserved. Knowing their weaknesses will help these processes. The theory of vulnerability of water pipe networks can contribute in this context because it is able to map the vulnerable parts of this type of system. The meaning of vulnerability has been defined as being the disproportionateness of the failure consequen...
Increasing the quality of water pipe network systems by tracing the vulnerability
Pinto, Jorge; Afonso, Luís; Varajão, João; Bentes, Isabel; Varum, Humberto; Duarte, António A. L. Sampaio; Agarwal, JitendraThe main objective of this paper is to introduce an emerging theory of vulnerability of water pipe networks and, in particular, its theoretical concepts. It is based on the form of a network and follows a systems approach. The application of the theory is presented using an example of a simple water pipe network. The fundamental contribution of this theory is to enable the design of water pipes networks that ar...
