Abstract

Today, the issue of monitoring water quality in distribution networks is of particular importance as the last step in the water production process. In this research, a change in the standard of vehicle routing is introduced, which is used in monitoring the quality of the water distribution network. In this study, a large number of teams visit candidate nodes in the water distribution network daily. Also in this research, mathematical modeling of the problem has been done so that there are a series of nodes (wells) that can not be visited directly. For this type of special node, the driver needs a key to open the well door and perform the required tests, which must visit the specific location where the well key is located. Two innovative algorithms based on genetic algorithm and neighborhood search, are proposed to solve this problem. Finally, some suggestions for developing the approach of this research are presented.
