Course Details
• Advanced Hydraulic Modeling: This unit will cover the use of advanced software tools for simulating and analyzing water infrastructure systems, including hydraulic transients and water quality.
• Resilient Materials and Structures: This unit will focus on the properties and behavior of materials commonly used in water infrastructure, including their durability, strength, and resistance to extreme events.
• Climate Change Adaptation: This unit will explore the impacts of climate change on water infrastructure systems, including changes in precipitation patterns, sea level rise, and temperature, and strategies for adapting to these changes.
• Decentralized Water Systems: This unit will examine the benefits and challenges of decentralized water systems, including on-site treatment and reuse, and their role in building resilience in water infrastructure.
• Water System Monitoring and Control: This unit will cover the latest technologies and approaches for monitoring and controlling water infrastructure systems, including sensors, telemetry, and advanced control algorithms.
• Water-Energy Nexus: This unit will explore the interdependencies between water and energy systems, including the energy required to treat and distribute water, and the water required to generate energy, and strategies for optimizing these systems.
• Life-Cycle Cost Analysis: This unit will introduce methods for evaluating the life-cycle costs of water infrastructure systems, including capital costs, operations and maintenance costs, and replacement costs, and for making informed investment decisions.
• Risk Assessment and Management: This unit will cover methods for identifying, analyzing, and managing risks in water infrastructure systems, including extreme events, natural hazards, and human error.
• Water Infrastructure Policy and Regulation: This unit will examine the policy and regulatory frameworks that govern water infrastructure systems, including permitting, funding, and rate-setting, and their impact on resilience.
