High resolution water pressure monitoring for the assessment of fatigue damage in water distribution pipes
Carlos Jara-Arriagada,

Abstract:In the last decade, the increasing implementation of high frequency monitoring has shown that water distribution networks are frequently affected by pressure transients. In some instances, even thousands of cyclic loadings can be exerted on pipes posing a risk of fatigue damage. High frequency monitoring, which can be as high as 128 samples per second, allows the capturing of extremely rapid transient events, otherwise undetectable using normal 15 min telemetry monitoring. Thus, providing a precise picture and… Show more
