Assessing the results of a virtual pressure management project applied in Kos Town water distribution network
(2016)Water pressure management (PM) is one of the most cost-effective ways for a water utility to reduce water leakage, pipes’ bursts, improve the level of services provided to its customers and lower its operating expenses. ... -
Combining pressure management and energy recovery benefits in a water distribution system installing PATs
(2017)Gravity can play a beneficial role in certain water distribution networks (WDNs), although sometimes high nodal pressures occur. Excessive pressure may lead to several negative effects regarding the network's operation and ... -

Evaluating demand management aspects of urban water policy. The city of Volos case, Greece
(2004)This paper examines the perspectives of the implementation of a demand-oriented policy concerning residential water use, which covers almost 70% of urban water. Water demand, water pricing policy, as well as building ... -
Evaluation of Water Resources Management Strategies to Overturn Climate Change Impacts on Lake Karla Watershed
(2016)The effects of climate change on meteorology, hydrology and ecology have become a priority area for research and for water management. It is crucial to identify, simulate, evaluate and, finally, adopt water resources ... -
Exploring the effectiveness of clustering algorithms for capturing water consumption behavior at household level
(2021)As water scarcity becomes more prevalent, the analysis of urban water consumption patterns at the consumer level and the estimation of the corresponding water demand for water utility are expected to be among the top ... -
Identification of Suitable Locations in a Small Water Supply Network for the Placement of Water Quality Sensors Based on Different Criteria under Demand-Driven Conditions
(2022)Drinking water quality monitoring in real time is of utmost importance to ensure public health. Although water utilities, following the related legislative framework, monitor drinking water quality through samplings, the ... -
Impacts of irrigation and nitrate fertilization scenarios on groundwater resources quantity and quality of the Almyros Basin, Greece
(2021)Irrigation and nitrate fertilization scenarios were combined and simulated for crop water irrigation demands and nitrogen applications based on experiments on crop cultivation practices. Two irrigation practices (deficit ... -
Optimizing the formation of DMAs in a water distribution network through advanced modelling
(2019)Water pressure management in a water distribution network (WDN) is a key component applied to achieve desirable water quality as well as a trouble-free operation of the network. This paper presents a hybrid, two-stage ... -
Urban water demand assessment for sustainable water resources management, under climate change and socioeconomic changes
(2020)The relationship between water abstraction and water availability has turned into a major stress factor in the urban exploitation of water resources. The situation is expected to be sharpened in the future due to the ... -
The use of the pilot points method on groundwater modelling for a degraded aquifer with limited field data: The case of Lake Karla aquifer
(2021)Groundwater depletion poses a major threat to global groundwater resources with increasing trends due to natural and anthropogenic activities. This study presents a surface-groundwater framework for water resources modelling ... -
USING A MARKET-TYPE ALLOCATION SYSTEM TO CONFRONT WATER SCARCITY: AN INTER-DISTRICT APPROACH IN GREECE
(2014)This study examines the implication of a market-based system to allocate water regionally in one of the most intensively irrigated areas of Greece. The proposed approach combines elements from administrative allocation and ... -
Water resources vulnerability assessment in the Adriatic Sea region: the case of Corfu Island
(2017)Cross-border water resources management and protection is a complicated task to achieve, lacking a common methodological framework. Especially in the Adriatic region, water used for drinking water supply purposes pass from ... -
Water scarcity management: Part 1: Methodological framework
(2018)Water scarcity and water availability puts significant constraints in the social and economic development of many regions and countries around the world, especially the arid and semi-arid regions, as well as deteriorates ...
