Domestic water is indispensable for daily use, yet its effective management encounters numerous challenges that impact household consumers. This study aims to identify the challenges leading to supply inadequacy and uneven distribution, while proposing interventions to enhance water supply for households. The study employed surveys, interviews, and...

The influence of the incorporation of Artemisia sphaerocephala krasch gum (ASK gum; 0-0.18%) on the water holding capability (WHC), texture, color, rheological property, water distribution, protein conformation and microstructure of pork batters was investigated. The results showed that the cooking yield, WHC and L* value of pork batter gels signif...

This study aims to simulate and assess the hydraulic characteristics and residual chlorine in the water supply network of a selected area in Al-Najaf City using WaterGEMS software. Field and laboratory work were conducted to measure the pressure heads and velocities, and water was sampled from different sites in the network and then tested to estim...

Repeated freeze–thaw cycles can directly cause the changes in the water distribution, physicochemical characteristics, and microstructure of Scomberomorus niphonius surimi. To improve the quality of S. niphonius surimi, the effect of water retention agents (phosphate and trehalose) was investigated during freeze-thaw cycles. The results of low-fiel...

Agent-based modeling (ABM) has been employed to understand and capture the complexity of the coupled human-nature processes in water resource systems. One of the challenges is to model human decisions in the coupled human and natural systems. Hydraulic fracturing water uses were distributed through a depot-based water allocation system in the Bakke...

With projected temperature increases and extreme events due to climate change for many regions of the world, characterizing the impacts of these emerging hazards on water distribution systems is necessary to identify and prioritize adaptation strategies for ensuring reliability. To aid decision-making, new insights are needed into how water distrib...

Electron-beam irradiation (EBI) is an efficient, safe, and nonthermal sterilization technique that is extensively used in food preservation research. Here we report the effects of different EBI doses (0, 4, 8 kGy) and preservation temperatures (room temperature [RT], 4 °C) on the muscle water distribution and muscle quality indices of silver carp c...

The key aroma compounds and water distribution of the beef at different roasting times (0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18 min) were identified and analyzed. The results showed that the L* value increased considerably before peaking and then decreased. On average, a* values decreased significantly first and then kept stable, while b* values increased first...
