The water–tourism nexus requires better knowledge, management and governance to address environmental societal challenges. This review takes stock of the approaches used this in Mediterranean from 2000 2020. Bibliometric exploratory content analysis targeted tourism impacts on water supply, determinants consumption, water-saving mechanisms technologies. A fundamental insight is that literature remains rather centric technical, paying little attention behavioural change stakeholder action....
The power output over a typical year is key feature to assess the performance of run-of-river hydropower plant. In carrying out this analysis, net head fluctuations due changes in processed flow rate are frequently neglected, while variations efficiency electro-mechanical generation group more often taken into account. To depict combined effect and fluctuations, concept Global Efficiency introduced. Great emphasis put on discharge conditions an approximate method forward for correlating...
The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends the introduction of a water safety plan (WSP) approach on drinking water, in all types settings. This study represents first WSP developed Neptune Fountain, Bologna (Italy), based an interdisciplinary approach, integrating hydraulic and microbiological features, Building Information Modeling (BIM). aim was to develop dynamic digital platform update share maintenance program, promoting collaboration among microbiologists, engineers, municipal...
Water distribution systems (WDSs) play a vital rule in communities, ensuring well-being and supporting social economic growth. Consequently, they are recognized as critical infrastructures for which identifying priorities design maintenance interventions is fundamental step. This work applies methodology founded on graph theory based algorithmic approach to identify connected subgraph named the Primary Network (PN) complex WDSs by focusing potentially most suitable paths transferring water...
