Two approaches to solving the problem of robust least-cost design of water distribution systems under uncertainty in input parameters are considered. The first approach (redundant design) is based on redundancy in design, where “safety margins” a

Management of water quality is a major issue for water companies, especially as many systems are old and have excess capacity. A methodology which uses an evolutionary algorithm to minimize water age, and hence improve water quality, is presented in

In order to successfully calibrate an urban drainage model, multiple criteria should be considered, which raises the issue of adopting a method for comparing different parameter sets according to a set of objectives. Multi-objective genetic algorithm
