AB  -  Interdisciplinary Approach to Address the Dynamics of Water Distribution Systems for                             Engineering Student Education         Water distribution systems are complex system, where biological and chemicalreactions occur during the hydraulic conveyance of water. However, there have not beencomprehensive and systematic approaches to educate undergraduate students towardunderstanding this complex system. Significantly integrated understandings of chemical,biological and hydraulic dynamics are required to understand, upgrade and design waterdistribution systems. In spite of the complexities in water distribution systems andincreased public health risks due to aged water distribution systems, hydraulic courses arecurrently taught to engineering students (civil, chemical, and environmental engineeringstudents) focus only on the physical dynamics of fluids. Furthermore, there is also a lackof commercially available educational materials that address both the theory andapplication of integrated water distribution system dynamics. In that sense, there aresignificant needs for engineering students to understand physical, chemical and biologicaldynamics in water distribution systems so that current demand for generating a trainedwork force and maintaining our aged water infrastructure can be met.         Under the support of NSF TUES grant, we aim to address the current lack ofintegrated water distribution system education by providing laboratory modules and kitscoupled with a computational modeling tool for hydraulics and water quality simulationin water distribution systems. Seven function-adaptable modules (4 basic and 3 integratedmodules) and kits have been developed and tested at the University of Toledo and theUniversity of Dayton. Using modules and lab exercises, students have opportunity tosynthesize and interpret multiple information sources from lab exercises with the kits andto utilize them in model building and calibration.* “I am eligible for environmental engineering division early faculty grant”
