项目摘要

This PhD studentship - 50% funded by a grant of £48k from United Utilities (UU) - builds on UoB's 20-year research portfolio in sustainability, resilience, liveability, and business models advanced and led respectively by Dr Hunt and Professor Rogers. The primary outcome will be a methodology for developing a transparent, robustly-evidenced governance framework for any infrastructure intervention, tested using industrially-supported case studies in water and wastewater systems. With senior co-supervision from UU, the research will explore all 'formal' forms of governance that shape engineering interventions in the water sector (legislation, regulation, taxation and financial incentives, codes & standards, etc.) as well as the 'informal' forms of governance (citizen and societal attitudes and behaviours, societal norms, practice norms, etc.). All of these forms of governance need to be identified, analysed and where necessary re-engineered to align with the scientific evidence, the case for change in the systems in question, and the alternative business models that deliver multiple forms of value (accounting for system interdependencies) when the intervention is implemented, otherwise the intervention will prove ineffective or fail. Industry is desperate for this missing research, as evidenced in UKCRIC's mission maps; the doctoral research is consequently expected to yield very considerable follow-on funding. All other project funding (equipment, facilities, consumables, T&S) is already secured; Lis will join, and complement, the Pipebots RF/PhD team throughout her PhD.

这个博士生奖学金- 50%由United Utilities（UU）的4.8万英镑资助-建立在UoB在可持续性，弹性，宜居性和商业模式方面的20年研究组合上，分别由Hunt博士和Rogers教授领导。主要成果将是为任何基础设施干预制定一个透明、证据充分的治理框架的方法，并使用工业支持的供水和废水系统案例研究进行测试。在UU的高级共同监督下，该研究将探索所有“正式”的治理形式，这些形式塑造了水行业的工程干预措施（立法，法规，税收和财政激励措施，法规和标准等）。以及“非正式”的治理形式（公民和社会的态度和行为、社会规范、实践规范等）。所有这些治理形式都需要加以识别、分析，并在必要时进行重新设计，以便在实施干预措施时与科学证据、有关系统的变革情况以及提供多种形式价值的替代业务模式（考虑到系统的相互依存关系）保持一致，否则干预措施将被证明是无效或失败的。正如UKCRIC的使命地图所证明的那样，工业界迫切需要这项缺失的研究;因此，博士研究预计将产生非常可观的后续资金。所有其他项目资金（设备，设施，消耗品，T&S）已经获得; Lis将在整个博士学位期间加入并补充Pipebots RF/博士团队。
