- Additional information
- The methodology and tools used in this output provide a solution to a practical problem encountered by a major UK water supplier, Affinity Water, who provided funding for this research. The work enabled Affinity Water to evaluate cost-effectiveness of potential investments in assets related to pumping (contact: Network Performance Manager, Affinity Water). The proposed solution to optimisation problems for a variety of requirements has been cited by scholars and practitioners as an example of a methodology that can be applied to a real-world problem (doi.org/10.1109/TCNS.2017.2670501doi.org/10.1016/j.ejor.2019.12.011, doi.org/10.1016/j.advengsoft.2015.10.010, doi.org/10.1016/j.apenergy.2015.12.090).
