Sensor placement for leak detection and location in water distribution networks
"... The performance of a leak detection and location algorithm depends on the set of measurements that are available in the network. This work presents an optimization strategy that maximizes the leak diagnosability performance of the network. The goal is to characterize and determine a sensor configura ..."

Article SmartPipes: Smart Wireless Sensor Networks for Leak Detection in Water Pipelines
, 2014
"... Abstract: Asset monitoring, specifically infrastructure monitoring such as water distribution pipelines, is becoming increasingly critical for utility owners who face new challenges due to an aging network. In the UK alone, during the period of 2009–2010, approximately 3281 mega litres (106) of wate ..."

Optimal placement of sensors to detect delamination in composite beams
"... The paper describes an approach for the optimal placement of sensors in composite beam structures for online detection of damage. The ability to identify damage is based on establishing a mapping between the charactgeristics of specific damage mechanisms (location and extent) such as delamination, ..."

Computational geometry and artificial neural networks: a hybrid approach to optimal sensor placement for aerospace NDE
, 1997
"... The ideal design of an airplane should include built-in sensors that are pre-blended in the perfect aerodynamic shape. Each built-in sensor is expensive to blend in and requires continuous maintenance and data processing, so we would like to use as few sensors as possible. The ideal formulation of t ..."

Sensor fusion for coastal waters surveillance
- Proceedings of SPIE Multisensor & Multisource Information Fusion Conference
, 2005
"... We describe a large sensor field whose mission is to protect coastal waters by detecting objects like submarines. The system is buoy-based and distributed over a littoral area. The opportunities for detection are short and intermittent and the signal to noise ratio is low. The topology of the field ..."
