| Abstract | Optimal design and rehabilitation scheduling of water distribution networks (WDNs) have been often dealt separately over the past few decades. However initial design (which is named as static design in this paper) has indubitable influence on the operational condition and rehabilitation scheduling of network. This paper introduces an approach for simultaneous optimization of initial design and rehabilitation scheduling of WDNs during their life cycle. In this approach which is named as dynamic design, pipe diameters in the first year and their rehabilitation/replacement in the next years of the expected life of the network are determined considering the nodal demands growth and increase in pipes’ roughness. The proposed model consists of a multiobjective ant colony optimization engine linked to a pressure dependent analysis model and a pipe break prediction model. This paper introduces the following contributions: (1) it implements dynamic design based on the pressure dependent analysis with considering leakage; (2) a support vector machine based sub model is used for pipe break prediction. Then pipe breaks and their repair costs are considered in dynamic design process; (3) a new reliability index is used as one of the objective functions. Two networks are used to investigate the impact of static and dynamic designs on the reliability and total cost of design and rehabilitation of WDNs during their life cycle. The results show that the dynamic design produces more reliable and lower cost networks in comparison to the ones resulted from either static design or rehabilitation scheduling separately. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
