| Abstract | As an essential lifeline engineering system, water distribution network should provide enough water to maintain people’s life after earthquake in addition to working under daily operation. However, the design of water distribution network usually ignores the influence of earthquake, resulting in water stoppage in large area during many recent strong earthquakes. This study introduced a seismic design approach of water distribution network, i.e., topology optimization design. With network topology as the optimization goal and seismic reliability as the constraint, a topology optimization model for designing water distribution network under earthquake is established. Meanwhile, two element investment importance indexes, a pipeline investment importance index and a diameter investment importance index, are introduced to evaluate the importance of pipelines in water distribution network. Then, four combinational optimization algorithms, a genetic algorithm, a simulated annealing genetic algorithm, an ant colony algorithm and a particle swarm algorithm, are introduced to solve this optimization model. Moreover, these optimization algorithms are used to optimize a network with 19 nodes and 27 pipelines. The optimization results of these algorithms are compared with each other. |

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.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
