Abstract

The presented method for the assessment of water supply system functioning in face of undesirable events occurrence takes into account the failure analysis. The developed analysis will allow decision support in the economic efficiency assessment of the water supply infrastructure functioning. The proportional hazard method for the failure of water pipes assessment enables to assess the reliability of water pipes and to obtain the possibility of prediction of undesirable events. The use of the proposed method can significantly support management analysis of water supply system. The establishment of the assessment parameters is very important issue that requires the use of waterworks experience. Moreover, it is based on the real data from the water supply system functioning.
