Resilienz

Resilience demonstrator

Description

Test rig for investigating the resilience of water supply systems
Water is pumped from an open tank with two pumps into two acrylic glass cylinders and from there flows back to the tank via two valves
Transparent cylinders and visible sections allow visual access
Valves allow the introduction of disturbances and variation of the outflow at the cylinders
system topology can be customised with additional valves

Validation of adaptive, signal-based control methods based on time series analysis and machine learning
Resilience evaluation of the technical system by analysing resilience metrics
Increasing resilience through adaptivity of the system topology
Impact of consumer behaviour on the resilience of the water supply system
