Abstract

A novel approach to determine optimal sampling locations under the parameter of uncertainty
in a water distribution system (WDS) for the purpose of its hydraulic model calibration is presented. The
problem is formulated as a multi-objective optimisation problem under calibration parameter uncertainty. The
objectives are to maximise the calibrated model accuracy and to minimise the number of sampling devices as
a surrogate of sampling design cost. Model accuracy is defined as the average of normalised traces of model
prediction covariance matrices, each of which is constructed from a randomly generated sample of calibration
parameter values. To resolve the computational time issue, the optimisation problem is solved using a multiobjective
genetic algorithm and adaptive neural networks (MOGA-ANN). The results show that significant
computational savings can be achieved by using MOGA-ANN compared to the Monte Carlo Simulation
(MCS) model or the GA model based on all full fitness evaluations without significant decrease in the final
solution accuracy.
