Integrated High Resolution Imaging Radar and Decision Support System for the rehabilitation of WATER PIPElines

data pubblicazione: 01 settembre 2010
editore: Matthaios Bimpas, Angelos Amditis and Nikolaos Uzunoglu
pagine: 128

The objectives of this book are to describe the research work carried out in the framework of WATERPIPE project aiming:

• To develop a novel, high-resolution imaging ground penetrating radar for the detection of pipes, leaks and damages and the imaging of the damaged region and evaluate it at a test site.
• To produce an integrated system that will contain the equipment in "1" and a Decision-Support-System (DSS) for the rehabilitation management of the underground water pipelines that will use input from the inspections to assess, probabilistically, the time-dependent leakage and structural reliability of the pipelines and a risk-based methodology for rehabilitation decisions that considers the overall risk, including financial, social and environmental criteria.
• To field test the equipment and the Decision-Support-System

Advanced Tools and Models to Improve River Basin Management in Europe in the Context of Climate Change

data pubblicazione: 15 agosto 2010

This book aims:

• to provide better understanding of the river-sediment-soil-groundwater system at various temporal and spatial scales
• to relate expected climate alterations to changes in deposition, mobility and distribution of pollutants in European river basins.
• to provide the scientific basis for improved river basin management 
• to introduce novel tools for water and soil quality monitoring 
• to show the necessity of integrated modelling frameworks for impact evaluation of pollution as well as climate and land-use changes for definition of long-term management schemes
