Emerging investigators series: building a theory for smart stormwater systems

Abstract: Retrofitting stormwater systems with sensors and controllers will allow cities to be operated as real-time, distributed treatment plants. Unlike static infrastructure, which cannot adapt its operation to individual storms or changing land uses, “smart” stormwater systems will use system-level coordination to maximize watershed pollutant removal and treatment. We illustrate that this vision is not limited by technology, which has matured to the point at which it can be ubiquitously deployed. Rather, the challenge is much more fundamental and rooted in a system-level understanding of environmental science. Once distributed stormwater systems become highly instrumented and controlled, how should they be operated to achieve desired watershed outcomes? The answer to this question demands the development of a theoretical framework for smart stormwater systems. In this paper, we lay out the requirements for such a theory. Acknowledging that the adoption of these systems may still be years away, we also present a modeling framework to allow for the simulation of controlled stormwater systems before they become commonplace. We apply this control framework to two simulated case studies in which stormwater sites are controlled to reduce nitrate loads to downstream water bodies.

A predictor–corrector explicit four-step method with vanished phase-lag and its first, second and third derivatives for the numerical integration of the Schrödinger equation

TL;DR: In this article, a predictor-corrector explicit four-step method of sixth algebraic order is investigated, and the results of the elimination of the phase-lag and its first, second and third derivatives on the efficiency of the proposed method are investigated theoretically and computationally.

Alfvén solitons in a Fermionic quantum plasma

TL;DR: Coupled Zakharov-type equations are derived for circularly polarized Alfvén waves which show that variations in density take the form of dressed density solitons in which an approximately Gaussian peak is surrounded by smaller sinusoidal variations in the density envelope.

Comparing Numerical Methods for Ordinary Differential Equations

TL;DR: According to criteria involving the number of function evaluations, overhead cost, and reliability, the best general-purpose method, if function evaluations are not very costly, is one due to Bulirsch and Stoer, however, when function evaluated methods are relatively expensive, variable-order methods based on Adams formulas are best.
