Structured and long-term planning is an important part of the work with the renewal of water supply networks. This requires well-founded assessments and methods for evaluating the annual need for renewal for a sustainable and healthy future. Evaluating the condition of a management object has been a complex task. This is due to limited accessto the various parts of the water supply network and the fact that physical, operational and environmental factors affect pipelines in different ways. Since experience and knowledge have been developed about, for example, joint methods or the durability of pipe material, this has meant that several different pipe materials are underground. There are various useful methods for evaluation of the condition of the water supply network. Recently, mathematical models have begun to be used to analyse the status and estimated lifespan of lines through data on pipes and external factors. In this study, an ANN model from Svenskt Vatten was used to evaluate the organization’s geodata for the model and to study the relationship between risk management that models calculate and reported operational disruptions. The use of the model requires that large amounts of data need to be compiled and adapted to valid values.The results show that most of the water supply network in the study area can be used to set prediction values with the model by compiling and adapting attribute values. Several objects were excluded due to deficiencies in management attributes. Some comparisons can be made between estimated risk water pipes and reported operational disruptions. The conclusion of the study is that the model could be an important complement to future renewal planning. Assessed risk water pipes can provide a good indication of which parts of the pipeline network need to be evaluated in more depth for possible renewal.

Lärande med elektroniska medel har potentialen att revolutionera lärande. Via datorskärmen kan man enkelt åskådliggöra fysikaliska fenomen och underlätta arbetet för läraren. Om en utbildning bedrivs elektroniskt med hjälp av en dator och på distans uppstår en del svårigheter men samtidigt möjligheter, jämfört med en traditionell utbildning med fysisk närvaro i en skola. Datorer ger möjligheten att ta hänsyn till pedagogiska aspekter som kan effektivisera lärande. I dagens läge finns det inte ett utarbetat sätt att lära ut med elektroniska medel som garanterar ett gott lärande resultat. Hur en elektronisk kurs utformas är upp till läraren och institutionen som erbjuder kursen. I denna rapport ger vi ett enkelt förslag på hur vi anser en elektronisk kurs bör vara utformad samt det innehållet i kursen bör täcka. / Teaching by electronic means has the potential to revolutionize teaching. The screen of the computer can easily visualize physical phenomenon and facilitate the work of the teacher. If an education is conducted electronically and by distance it creates some difficulties but at the same time opportunities, compared to traditional education with a physical presence at a school. Today there is no prepared way to teach by electronic means that guarantees good teaching results. How an electronic course is formed is decided by the teacher and the institution offering the course. In this report we give a simple suggestion of how we consider an electronic technics course should be formed and what the course content should cover.
