An interoperable workflow-based framework for the automation of building intelligent process control systems
(International Environmental Modelling and Software Society (iEMSs), 2018)
Conference lecture
Open AccessOne of the major problems to design and implement a control/supervision system for a process lies in the need to establish an ad-hoc system for each process installation. On the other side, an open challenge related to the ... -
Application of CBR for intelligent process control of a WWTP
(IOS Press, 2019)
Article
Open AccessThis paper proposes the use of a Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) system for the control and the supervision of a real wastewater treatment plant (WWTP). A WWTP is a critical system which aims to ensure the quality of the water ... -
Data Validation and reconstruction for performance enhancement and maintenance of water networks
(2016-01-01)
Article
Open AccessIn a real water network, a telecontrol system must periodically acquire, store and validate data gathered by sensor measurements in order to achieve accurate monitoring of the whole network in real time. For each sensor ... -
Data validation and reconstruction of flowmeters to provide the annual efficiency of ATLL transport water network in Catalonia
(2012)
Conference report
Restricted access - author's decisionThe purpose of this paper is to provide a data validation/reconstruction of flowmeters that allow to determine the annual economic and hydraulic efficiency of the water transport network of Aigües Ter Llobregat (ATLL) ... -
District Management Areas characterisation in water network based on clustering
(2009-08-27)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe division of a network in different sectors is a usual practice in Water Companies. It improves the management of the network in different senses. Sectors have more homogenous characteristics and need specific cares ... -
Economic linear parameter varying model predictive control of the aeration system of a wastewater treatment plant
(2022-08-11)
Article
Open AccessThis work proposes an economic model predictive control (EMPC) strategy in the linear parameter varying (LPV) framework for the control of dissolved oxygen concentrations in the aerated reactors of a wastewater treatment ... -
Ensemble model-based method for time series sensors’ data validation and imputation applied to a real waste water treatment plant
(International Environmental Modelling and Software Society (iEMSS), 2022)
Conference lecture
Open AccessIntelligent Decision Support Systems (IDSSs) integrate different Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques with the aim of taking or supporting human-like decisions. To this end, these techniques are based on the available ... -
Herramienta basada en minería de datos para la automatización del diseño de sistemas inteligentes en EDAR
(Asociación Española de Abastecimientos de Agua y Saneamiento, 2019)
Conference lecture
Open AccessUno de los principales problemas para diseñar e implementar un sistema de supervisión y control para un proceso radica en la necesidad de establecer una solución ad-hoc para cada instalación. La interoperabilidad de los ... -
Interoperating data-driven and model-driven techniques for the automated development of intelligent environmental decision support systems
(Elsevier, 2021-06)
Article
Open AccessThis paper proposes an Intelligent Decision Support (IDS) methodology based on the integration of a data-driven technique —Case Based Reasoning (CBR)— and model-driven technique —Rule Based Reasoning (RBR)— for control, ... -
Knowledge extraction from raw data in water networks: application to the Barcelona supramunicipal water transport network
(2015)
Conference report
Open AccessCritical Infrastructure Systems (CIS) such as the case of potable water transport network are complex large-scale systems, geographically distributed and decentralized with a hierarchical structure, requiring highly ... -
Leakage isolation using pressure sensitivity analysis in water distribution networks: Application to the Barcelona case study
(2010)
Conference report
Open AccessLeaks are present to some extent in all water-distribution systems. This paper proposes a leakage localisation method based on the pressure measurements and pressure sensitivity analysis of nodes in a network. The ... -
Leakage localisation method in a water distribution system based on sensitivity matrix: methodology and real test
(2010)
Conference lecture
Open AccessLeaks are present in all water distribution systems. In this paper a method for leakage detection and localisation is presented. It uses pressure measurements and simulation models. Leakage localisation methodology is based ... -
Methodology for leakage isolation using pressure sensitivity analysis in water distribution networks
(2011-07)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis letter proposes a phase-shifted pulse-width modulation (PS-PWM) technique for the flying capacitor (FC) multilevel converter that improves the quality of the line-to-line voltages. In traditional PS-PWM, the line-to-line ... -
Operational predictive optimal control of Barcelona water transport network
(IFAC, 2011)
Conference report
Restricted access - author's decisionThis paper describes the application of model-based predictive control (MPC) techniques to the supervisory flow management in large-scale drinking water networks including a telemetry/telecontrol system. MPC technique is ... -
Operational predictive optimal control of Barcelona water transport network
(2013)
Article
Open AccessThis paper describes the application of model-based predictive control (MPC) techniques to the supervisory flow management in large-scale drinking water networks including a telemetry/telecontrol system. MPC is used to ... -
Optimizing online time-series data imputation through case-based reasoning
(IOS Press, 2022)
Conference report
Open AccessWhen working with Intelligent Decision Support Systems (IDSS), data quality could compromise decisions and therefore, an undesirable behaviour of the supported system. In this paper, a novel methodology for time-series ...
