April 23, 2021

Nexus “Towards Clean Water” researchers, Drs. Emad Elwakil and Thikra Dawood, along with their UNSA partner, Dr. Hector Novoa, presented two papers at the: 8th IEEE Virtual Conference on Technologies for Sustainability. The virtual event was hosted from April 22-24, 2021 and researchers from diverse backgrounds shared their work and innovate tools that focus on the development, application of science, engineering and technology to address environmental issues. The conference aims to expose attendees to the latest tools, creating connections and innovative solutions to take their sustainability programs to the next level. 

The papers titled: “3D Modeling of Pipe Risk Index for a Sustainable Urban Water System” and “An Intelligent Approach for the Condition Assessment of Water Mains” provide, respectively, a framework to assess water systems, as modeling towards sustainable management of underground infrastructure in Peru, and a literature review about the state-of-the-art AI-based deterioration modeling for urban water systems.
