Energy saving policy in water distribution networks

Renewable Energy and Power Quality Journal, 2009
In the last years, issues concerning water saving in water distribution systems have paid interest through an integrated policy aiming at reducing leakage by means of pressure control. Hence, in water distribution systems Pressure Reducing Valves (PRVs) are often used to prevent the downstream hydraulic grade from exceeding a set value.

Real‐World Investigation of Satralizumab in Patients With Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Satralizumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting the interleukin‐6 receptor, has demonstrated efficacy in clinical trials for neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). However, its real‐world effectiveness and safety compared to conventional immunosuppressive therapies remain uncertain.

Multi-Model Prediction for Demand Forecast in Water Distribution Networks

Energies, 2018
This paper presents a multi-model predictor called Qualitative Multi-Model Predictor Plus (QMMP+) for demand forecast in water distribution networks. QMMP+ is based on the decomposition of the quantitative and qualitative information of the time-series ...

Discovery and Targeted Proteomic Studies Reveal Striatal Markers Validated for Huntington's Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Clinical trials for Huntington's disease (HD) enrolling persons before clinical motor diagnosis (CMD) lack validated biomarkers. This study aimed to conduct an unbiased discovery analysis and a targeted examination of proteomic biomarkers scrutinized by clinical validation. Methods Cerebrospinal fluid was obtained from PREDICT‐HD and

Demand Pattern Calibration in Water Distribution Networks

Procedia Engineering, 2014
Water distribution network models are widely used by water companies. Consumer demands are one of the main uncertainties in these models, but their calibration is not feasible due to the low number of sensors available in most real networks. However, the behaviour of these individual demands can be also calibrated if some a priori information is ...
