Application of Three-Dimensional CFD Model to Determination of the Capacity of Existing Tyrolean Intake
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)CFD models of intakes in high-head hydropower systems are rare due to the lack of geometric data and cost of modeling. This study tests two different types of software to see how modeling can be performed in a cost-effective ... -
A Cyber-Physical All-Hazard Risk Management Approach: The Case of the Wastewater Treatment Plant of Copenhagen
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The ongoing digitalization of critical infrastructures enables more efficient processes, but also comes with new challenges related to potential cyber-physical attacks or incidents. To manage their associated risk, a precise ... -
Enhancing a Transition to a Circular Economy in theWater Sector: The EU Project WIDER UPTAKE
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)A novel approach for resource recovery includes forward osmosis (FO) as a concentration step in municipal wastewater treatment. The current study investigates different pre-treatment strategies including biological treatment ... -
Infrastructure Asset Management: Historic and Future Perspective for Tools, Risk Assessment, and Digitalization for Competence Building
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)This article aims at analyzing the historic development of infrastructure asset management (IAM) resulting from the increase of challenges over time. Furthermore, it aims at suggesting the corresponding requirements for ... -
Making aquaponics a business: A framework
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Commercial aquaponics systems remain a challenge independent of the country, fish, plant species, or system design type. Most aquaponics systems are made by hobbyists, with aquaponics not being the main source of income. ... -
Potential of Biofilters for Treatment of De-Icing Chemicals
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Organic de-icing chemicals, such as propylene glycol and potassium formate, cause environmental degradation in receiving water if left untreated, due to the high organic load resulting in oxygen depletion. Biofilters are ... -
Protection of Water Distribution Networks against Cyber and Physical Threats: The STOP-IT Approach Demonstrated in a Case Study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Water critical infrastructures are undergoing a process of digital transformation that entails an increasing integration between the physical and cyber layers of the system. This integration brings efficiency and monitoring ... -
Rehabilitation Planning of Water Distribution Network through a Reliability – Based Risk Assessment
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The efficient and effective management of existing water distribution systems (WDSs) faces challenges related to aging of infrastructure, population growth, extended urbanization, climate change impacts and environmental ... -
Sustainable Development Scenarios in the Danube Delta—A Pilot Methodology for Decision Makers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The Danube Delta, the second-largest wetland in Europe, provides people with multiple ecosystem services, consisting of drinking water, food, flood protection, nutrient recycling, and recreation, as it is a complex ... -
Technical Note: On the Production and Accuracy of CNC-Manufactured Hydraulic Scale Models
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)This Technical Note addresses the workflow for the production of hydraulic scale models using a Computer Numerically Controlled (CNC) production technique and investigates the possibilities to accurately reproduce topographical ... -
Validation of a Swimming Direction Model for the Downstream Migration of Atlantic Salmon Smolts
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Fish swimming performance is strongly influenced by flow hydrodynamics, but little is known about the relation between fine-scale fish movements and hydrodynamics based on in-situ investigations. In the presented study, ...
