Criticality Results Demand Shortfall for individual Customer Elements and Demand Nodes

In summary, add a separate Individual Element Demand Shortfall (%) result to the Affected Customer Elements and Affected Nodes Criticality Results Tab. Include all Customer Elements and Affected Nodes that are below an Individual Element Demand Shortfall Report threshold set by the user.

Currently, (Valve) Criticality runs using the Hydraulic Engine with Pressure Dependent Demands active calculate what the revised demands are at each Demand Node for each Isolation Segment. For any given isolation segment, the calculated Pressure Dependent Demands can have a Individual Element Demand Shortfall for elements hydraulically impacted by the isolation.

However, the standard Criticality interface report tabs only output what the Total Demand Shortfall is across all Demand Junctions, and the users cannot see which Junctions, and which Customer Meters associated to those Junctions, have a Demand Shortfall. This is essential for having these fields with at least a Demand Shortfall (%) value for each affected Junction/Hydrant and each affected Associated Customer Element so this can be used in downstream risk assessment and planned works processes.
