ResiWater deliverable report D5.2: Development of Tools for Assessing WDS Vulnerability, Resilience and Robustness and Decision Support for Design

The main objective of the work-package 5 is to develop a vulnerability/resilience framework for the analysis of the water distribution systems (WDSs) behavior under crisis conditions. More specifically for T5.2, it is developing technical measures for the resilience. WP 5.2 attempts to provide engineers, modelers, and managers with structured tools which allow a comprehensive analysis of crisis management to enhance the WDS resilience. In this order the mainly items of the WP 5.2 are: 1. Resilience review was further carried out, focusing at last on time dependent indicators. The results of the review serve as basis for the next resilience key performance indicators (rKPIs). 2. Three-stages of resilience through applied power\energy- based indicators. 3. Criticality analysis of water distribution networks through demand satisfaction indicators. 4. Demand compensation proposal for adaptive and restorative stages of the network resilience.
