Innovation ARIMA models application to predict pressure variations in water supply networks with open-loop control. Case study in Noja (Cantabria, Spain) by David Muñoz-Rodríguez, Manuel J. González-Ortega, María-Jesús Aguilera-Ureña, Andrés Ortega-Ballesteros, Alberto-Jesus Perea-Moreno

“…Pressure control is typically managed through pressure reducing valves (PRVs) with electrically controlled actuators based on predefined tables according to the pressure at the critical point control (CPC). This open-loop control method lacks direct feedback between the PRV and CPC, making it challenging to distinguish whether pressure variations originate from normal head losses or abnormal network conditions.Unlike traditional applications of ARIMA focused on water demand forecasting, this study explores its novel use in pressure management within distribution networks, aiming to predict P3 (CPC) pressure based on head losses across a defined hydraulic sector. …”

A reduced cluster dynamics modeling of radiation damage in tungsten by Zhiyuan Li, Gaowen Ding, Pengchuang Liu, Tenglong Cong, Yang Li

“…The model accounts for the generation and reaction of point defects, small-size defect clusters, helium clusters, as well as the nucleation and growth of large immobile defects, including the interstitial dislocation loops, voids and helium bubbles. Moreover, by incorporating an atomically informed loop punching mechanism for bubble growth, the model is able to accurately capture the evolution kinetics of radiation-induced defects with and without the helium implantation. …”
