Abstract
Operation optimization of Water Distribution Systems (WDSs) in large metropolitan areas is complex and time-consuming. Effective and reliable scheduling of WDSs can enhance the efficiency of urban water supply and ensure WDS resilience. This paper developed a historical discretization tensor-based optimization (HDTO) method from a new perspective, integrating experience of scheduling staff to sift the search solution space and guarantee the reliability and accessibility of scheduling. Results showed that HDTO method can achieve a 90.0 % reduction in running time relative to stochastic heuristic optimization and pruning method, while enhancing energy and hydraulic performance. Furthermore, the newly developed HDTO method demonstrated remarkable efficacy in optimizing the operation of 24-hour extended period operations, potentially contributing to real-time WDS control. Finally, through the application of emergency and managed scenario analyses, the HDTO method demonstrated significant improvements in both the social and economic sustainability of WDS.
期刊介绍:
The journal Resources, Conservation & Recycling welcomes contributions from research, which consider sustainable management and conservation of resources. The journal prioritizes understanding the transformation processes crucial for transitioning toward more sustainable production and consumption systems. It highlights technological, economic, institutional, and policy aspects related to specific resource management practices such as conservation, recycling, and resource substitution, as well as broader strategies like improving resource productivity and restructuring production and consumption patterns.
Contributions may address regional, national, or international scales and can range from individual resources or technologies to entire sectors or systems. Authors are encouraged to explore scientific and methodological issues alongside practical, environmental, and economic implications. However, manuscripts focusing solely on laboratory experiments without discussing their broader implications will not be considered for publication in the journal.
