Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Urban hydraulics has become one of the fields where technological evolution progresses more rapidly. The classical knowledge of hydraulics is now complemented with modern techniques such as computational simulation, optimization or machine learning. In the urban water cycle, water supply areas, water distribution networks, urban sustainable drainage systems, sanitation networks, water treatment and water reuse systems have become key processes. Technological development in these processes is continuous, and in this way, modeling, simulation, and optimization tools are essential.
For this reason, this Special Issue focuses on all advances related to the calculation, simulation, optimization, and control of hydraulic engineering processes in the urban environment. In the field of water supply, aspects such as the optimization of water distribution systems, energy recovery, carbon footprint, sustainability or any application that relates to the binomial of water and energy are addressed. In the field of drainage and sanitation, aspects such as the influence of climate change, the rehabilitation of drainage networks, and the design and optimization of sustainable drainage systems (SUDs) are addressed. For all these applications, it is always interesting to have tools, algorithms, and applications that allow the modeling, simulation, and optimization of these systems.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Water is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
