- This $330,000 National Science Foundation project grant supports research at Purdue University from November 2022 through July 2025 to develop analytics and a prototype system for adaptive, human-centric coordination of demand-side flexibility at scale in electric power distribution networks. The goal is to enable actionable demand-side flexibility through adequate representation of consumer constraints and interactions with the energy system and provider. Researchers will develop learning...
- This $107,246 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Civil, Mechanical, and Manufacturing Innovation will fund the "Collaborative Research: Water and Health Infrastructure Resilience and Learning (WHIRL)" project at North Carolina State University. The project aims to enhance understanding of the interactions between drinking water and public health systems and how these critical infrastructure systems adapt to challenges. It will investigate how the public...
- This $183,897 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) supports fundamental research on how financial stress affects decision-making and the resilience of drinking water systems in U.S. cities. The project aims to advance understanding of the relationship between fiscal stress, policy decisions, and the resilience of critical municipal services. Key activities include conducting mixed methods research, producing...
- This $420,167 National Science Foundation project grant funds research at the University of Virginia to develop integrated drought management policies for the Upper Colorado River Basin. The goal is to evaluate potential economic, environmental and social impacts of droughts under current water management practices versus forecast-informed coordination of water markets and critical infrastructure operations. The research team will analyze impacts using regression models and develop an...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $246,221 Project Grant under the Engineering federal grant program (CFDA 47.041) to Vanderbilt University for research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: JOINT CONTROL OF HYDRAULICS AND WATER QUALITY DYNAMICS IN DRINKING WATER NETWORKS." The two-year project beginning October 1, 2021 aims to develop control strategies to optimize water quality and system hydraulics in drinking water distribution networks. As the NSF's Engineering directorate seeks...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) provides $199,542 to Purdue University to develop reaction mechanisms and experimental validation frameworks to mitigate the impact of sophisticated cyber attacks on smart power distribution systems. The key objectives are to: 1) investigate vulnerabilities of load tap changers (LTCs) in power distribution systems to cyber attacks targeting voltage collapse; 2) design primary and backup reaction...
- This Project Grant award of $200,000 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) is funding a rapid research project at Montclair State University to evaluate the resilience of small community water systems (CWS) to Hurricanes Helene and Milton in southwest Florida. The project aims to advance understanding of hurricane resilience behaviors of these small CWS, which typically lack the capacity to adapt to natural hazards due to limited resources. The research...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $254,976 Project Grant to Resbonds International Corporation through the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to develop a digital platform for assessing water quality at urban-watershed interfaces. The platform will integrate physical data from advanced monitoring systems with artificial intelligence to serve as a scalable analytics platform using environmental, economic, and social data. It aims to help cities and utilities finance infrastructure projects...
- The University of Central Florida Board of Trustees received a $300,596 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to develop technologies for temporal-spatial control of electric-driven water facilities to support renewable energy management. The three-year award, issued on September 1, 2021 and set to conclude on August 31, 2024, will support research into coordinating water infrastructure operations for contingency response and integrated...
This $200,000 National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Civil, Mechanical, and Manufacturing Innovation project grant, awarded to Purdue University, aims to develop approaches for the joint operation of coupled municipal drinking water and electric power distribution networks. The key products and services to be delivered through this 3-year project include: This research project will contribute to fields like optimization, economic contract design, resilience modeling, electric power systems, and water networks. It involves collaboration with electric and water utility partners to help improve the economics, environmental impact, reliability, and resilience of these coupled systems.
