If the screw clamp is actually loosening, then maybe a drop of Blue Loctite
would reduce the problem.  I do not know if a hose clamp thread is
anaerobic enough for Loctite to be effective.

If the hose material is creeping away under compression, maybe tightening
the clamps while the hoses are warm would allow more of the potential creep
to be overcome during tightening.

My hose have not arrived yet :-(
so I do not have this problem :-)
yet :-(
