maharlou-bakhtegan catchment in the southern part of iran is faced with water scarcity.this problem is exacerbated by environmental degradation, climate change effects, mismanagementof water resources, along with a major dependence of water demand supplies on the limitedgroundwater resources. in this study, a combined approach of dpsir model along with the scenarioanalysis was employed to deriv...

The benefits of having a continuous, piped supply of safe drinking water delivered to household premises are widely recognised. Piped supplies on premises not only reduce the time and effort required to collect water, and thereby increase the amount of water available for personal and domestic needs but also are more likely to provide water that meets required standards for drinking water quali...

Although agenda of Water supply in sufficient quantity and standard quality is highlighted in India from last few years. But Yet Performance assessment and Efficiency evaluation of water supply services not in practice. However the analysis is confined to the realm of researchers and policy makers. The present paper spells inclusion of quality parameter in assessment of utilities through fronti...

Knowledge of the airflow distribution inside a Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) can create a safe working environment for workers and machinery. The airflow quality and the related mass flow rate in the ventilation system should be sufficient to dilute gases and remove dust inside the tunnel. In this work, airflow distribution in the single shield TBM tunnel was studied using computational fluid dyn...

Comprehensively understanding water consumption behavior is necessary to design efficient and effective water use strategies. Despite global efforts to identify the factors that affect domestic water consumption, those related to domestic water use in rural regions have not been sufficiently studied, particularly in villages that have gained access to improved water supply. To address this gap,...
