Hydraulic analysis of water distribution networks stands as a paramount mathematical application within the realm of water resources engineering. The EPANET software, established by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, serves as a model for water flow within distribution systems and is employed in the design and analysis of distribution networks, along with addressing pressing issues in water distribution management, such as water quality investigation. The software's distinctiveness is attributed to its reliance on the Hybrid Node Loop (HNL), which accelerates the numerical resolution of problems with intersecting equations. In this study, the Tikrit University Campus was selected as the site to examine the pressure and discharge behavior within the water distribution network during morning and evening pumping periods. It was observed that the pressure values exhibited a decrease in the university's north-western sections and buildings, particularly those distant from the pumping station, during the morning pumping periods. This pattern is attributable to the heightened demand in the colleges and faculty residential neighborhood, suggesting a correlation between high consumption and reduced pressure values. In the evening period, characterized by a diminished population of students and employees in the university's colleges, an elevated pressure level within the network was noted, likely due to the reduced demand level. However, demand remained high in the female students' dormitories and the faculty residential neighborhood. Interestingly, the male students' dormitory, being remote from the pumping station and supplied with water through the network's end following the faculty residential neighborhood, maintained low pressure values across both periods. This study underscores the need for strategic planning in the design and management of water distribution networks, particularly in areas with variable consumption patterns and demand levels.

“…Ferrocement is a captivating, material for manufacture of different construction member as walls, floors system, and different types of slabs for substructure, underground water vessels, water control equipment, vessel coating and retaining walls [6]. Ferrocement composite was generally used in different structural construction which includes in storage towers, tanks, shell panels, and load-bearing walls and to protect some riverbanks [7,8]. Ferrocement panels without fibers was used as reference panels for the behavior of ferrocement panels reinforced with straight strips of jute fibers and reinforced ferrocement panels with carbon fiber [9,10].…”

Ferrocement is extensively utilized in construction as a structural material, given its exceptional mechanical properties and impact strength. This study aimed to analyze the performance of ferrocement that is reinforced with recycled steel wire tires under static loads. This current study a comparative investigation of behavior of compressive strength of ferrocement cubes and flexural behavior of ferrocement panels and behavior of ferrocement panels reinforced with tire Steel wire tires under static loads. Ferrocement slabs sample was (L 500×W 500× t 50mm) in size, and 15 slabs were subjected to static point load. The number of wire mesh layers, which was replaced by recycling tire steel wire as a ratio of the volume of wire mesh, was the main parameter in the current study. The percentage of recycle steel wire tires are 33% and 66% and 99% from of steel wire mesh for reinforcements of ferrocement panels. The results presented, the behavior of panels under static load at ultimate failure and first crack. It showed that ferrocement have 99.0% steel wire tires gave a good performance under static loading which were required to increase the load value to make the first crack and ultimate failure, and causing late of the failure and less deflection.

Rainwater harvesting is one of the solutions to avoid water loss in the future because it provides sufficient supply and is more economical when compared to other conventional types. The shortage of water supply become a concern due to the growing population as well as the environmental pollution. Rainwater harvesting is seen as the most accessible and easy-to-use resource for drinking and other domestic uses. The current study consists of two main parts; the first part is a hydrological study that includes studying the possibility of benefiting from the amount of rainfall and developing future plans to benefit from this collected water and how to manage it through the implementation of water harvesting technology by collecting rainwater from the roofs to provide part of the population's water needs instead of its wastage and loss. The second part is an environmental study that includes a study of evaluating the quality of water collected through the harvesting of rainwater technology and comparing it with World Health Organization (WHO) specifications for water-drinking purposes. Rainwater samples were analyzed in the environmental laboratory to compare with (WHO) World Health Organization specifications. Samples were obtained at, (28.3, 84.9, and 33.96) liters, respectively, where the average is (49.05) liters. The depths of rain were recorded in the measuring cylinder (5, 14.6, and 9) mm, respectively, where the average is (9.53) mm; the measurement is a negative indicator compared to the expected (26.15) mm. The variables identified (total hardness, calcium, nitrates, sulfates, chlorides, and dissolved substances). Furthermore, 33.33, 0.80, 35.67, 8.83, and 95.0) mg/L, respectively, while the pH (7.97) and conductivity (µs/cm 170.13) were within the specification and the Temperature (23.60℃) and turbidity 10.47 NTU)) It was not in conformity with the specification, as the specification refers to placing in heat (20℃) and turbidity (5 NTU). The current study discloses that the overall quality of water is quite satisfactory as per WHO specifications. The harvesting of rainwater system offers an adequate amount of water and energy savings through lower consumption. Furthermore, considering the cost of fixing and maintenance expenditures, the system is effective and economical. This current study provides the environmental benefits of rainwater harvesting and identifies its probable boundaries and its role in developing a more sustainable water resource management under climate change. This study contributes to improving adaptability strategies of rainwater harvesting for sustainable water resources management under changing climate.
