Виктор Царенко о М.А.Жидковой

I have just looked at the blog you devoted to MA and have started feeling 25 years younger. You made my day! It is really a fantastic idea.

You are absolutely right that, at the time, not many people working in the gas transportation industry understood the capabilities of analytical approach (in combination with symbolic computations) to GST modelling. Having kvasi-linear and relatively simple nature of the equations describing non-stationary pipeline gas transmission, it is not so hard to achieve acceptable accuracy and extremely high speed of calculations for complex large-scale systems.

It is ironic that MA's ideas with the focus on analytics, simplicity and symbolic computations are still not implemented in widely used industrial applications in spite of their obvious computational advantage and extensibility to the all spectrum of typical gas transportation problems. I mean they are really powerful not only for simulation/forecasting of non-stationary processes, but could be easily applied to automated control of dynamic regimes, optimization of resources etc.

Last years, her ideas about importance of accounting for transition processes on all stages of pipeline system life cycle are becoming popular again in the literature. The ideas go in circles.

The key point is... that her scientific legacy has not been fully appreciated and her scientific program has not been implemented yet.

I’m happy to write together with you some good words about MA and her contribution to the science of gas transport. Thank you for the offer.
