Correction: Xu et al. Dynamic Behavior and Mechanism of Transient Fluid–Structure Interaction in Viscoelastic Pipes Based on Energy Analysis. Water 2024, 16, 1468

There were errors in the original publication [1]. In the original publication, “To achieve this, the experimental model and parameters were compared and analyzed alongside the available literature”, ref. [25] was not cited. The citation has now been inserted in “2.3. Comparison of Experiments on Different Friction Models” and should read as follows:

To assess the impact of frictional models and viscoelastic constitutive effects on transient flows, it is important to identify the optimal frictional model [24]. To achieve this, the experimental model and parameters were compared and analyzed alongside the available literature [25]. The experiment utilized low-density polyethylene pipe, with an inner diameter of 41.6 mm and a wall thickness of 4.2 mm. The test platform, depicted in Figure 3, comprised three components—a pressure tank, a horizontally positioned pipe, and a fast valve installed at a distance of 43.1 m from the pressure tank. The upstream pressure tank maintained a constant pressure, while the downstream fast valve generated transient flow excitation.

In addition, in Figure 3, a reference [25] has been added to the title. The correct caption for Figure 3 should be “Figure 3. Schematic of the test platform [25]”.

In the references list, ref. [25] “Urbanowicz, K.; Firkowski, M. Extended Bubble Cavitation Model to predict water hammer in viscoelastic pipelines. J. Phys. Conf. Ser. 2018, 1101, 012046. https://doi.org/10.1088/1742-6596/1101/1/012046” has been added. With this correction, the order of some references has been adjusted accordingly.

The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
