Children from the poorest households benefit most. PSP is also associated with a 7.8 percentage point increas...
متن کاملCatastrophic Collapse of Water Supply Reservoirs in Urban Areas
The paper presents a two-dimensional unsteady flow model based on the finite volume method combined with anapproximate Riemann solver to solve the governing equations on an unstructured triangular grid. A major feature of the model is that it isconservative, can deal with wetting and drying processes, resolve shocks and can handle complex geometry. The model is applied to acase stud...

Water supply surveillance generates data on the safety and adequacy of drinking water supply in order to contribute to the protection of human health. Most current models of water supply surveillance for urban areas come from developed countries and have significant shortcomings if directly applied elsewhere. There are differences not only in socio-economic conditions but also in the nature of ...

For clearly, a water system ...
