Design Rationale for Gated Canal Estates

该项目将提供关于如何设计封闭式运河小区的新知识，以最大限度地提高其水质，并避免导致开发劣质甚至有害水质的事件。它将把这些新知识记录为工程设计指南，可以实施这些指南以最大限度地减少对水质的不利影响。还将编写一份用户手册，记录水质决策支持系统的应用，以便在设计运河小区时使用。该项目将促进技术从研究环境向私营和公共部门的转移，也使学生能够完成博士课程。

This project will provide new knowledge on how to design gated canal estates to maximise their water quality and avoid events leading to the development of poor, and even harmful, water quality. It will document this new knowledge as Engineering Design Guidelines, which can be implemented to minimise adverse water quality impacts. A User Manual will also be developed to document the application of water quality decision support systems for use in designing canal estates. This project will foster technology transfer from the research environment to the private and public sectors, also enabling a student to complete a PhD program.
