Monitoring, Planning, and Management of Water Quality and Quantity for Resilient Water and Energy Systems
Both resilient systems where water is used for energy production and energy is used for treatment and operation depend not only on the quantity of water, but also quality and environmental health. Addressing gaps in environmental health and infrastructure condition/capability data...
Hansen, C., DeRolph, C., Allen-Dumas, M., Griffiths, N., Matson, P., Pilla, R., Siddik, A., Stevenson, L., and Johnson, R.
Hydrotwin: an AI-based physics and optimization framework for improved water resource resilience in systems experiencing adverse events
This white paper focuses on water for energy.
As we move ahead into an uncertain future for water resource demand and supply, a massive challenge exists to optimize water systems to be resilient to a range of press/pulse extreme event states and conditions. Optimal decision-makin...
