چکیده

large water distribution systems can be highly vulnerable to penetration of contaminant factors caused by different means including deliberate contamination injections. as contaminants quickly spread into a water distribution network, rapid characterization of the pollution source has a high measure of importance for early warning assessment and disaster management. in this paper, a methodology based on probabilistic support vector machines (psvms) is proposed for identifying the contamination source location in drinking water distribution systems. to obtain the required data for training the psvms, several computer simulations have been performed over multiple combinations of possible contamination source locations and initial mass injections for a conservative solute. then the trained probabilistic svms have been effectively utilized to identify the upstream zones that are more likely to have the positive detection results. in addition, the results of this method were compared and contrasted with bayesian networks (bns) and probabilistic neural networks (pnns). the efficiency and versatility of the proposed methodology were examined using the available data and information from water distribution network of the city of arak in the western part of iran.

Sensor Location Design for Contaminant Source Identification in Water Distribution Systems

A general method is proposed to identify appropriate network locations for placing water quality monitoring sensors to identify the sources of accidental or deliberate contaminations. First, the contamination source identification problem is discussed for an assigned set of monitored locations. If the contaminant is conservative or its reaction rate in water is first order, the problem can be e...

Dynamic Contaminant Identification in Water

We describe how we plan to convert a traditional data collection sensor and ocean model into a DDDAS enabled system for identifying contaminants and then reacting with different models, simulations, and sensing strategies in a symbiotic manner. The sensor is just as useful in water as it would be on Mars for material identification. A successful terrestrial application of the sensor will lead t...
