During the first half of Spring 2008 semester, I got my first taste of the AguaClara project. I am part of the hydraulic design team because I am most interested in the actual design process. Although I am limited because of my current less than proficient MathCAD skills(this is my first time using the program), I have been making great progress in learning.

Along the MathCAD lines, I helped organize and rewrite the Pipe Design function , and I have been working on the overall Hydraulic Design Functions. Both of which can be found in the SourceForge repository under the hydraulic design program. Within my team I have been assigned to define variables, keep the programs organized and make sure the programs on SourceForge stay current.

This semester I have also taken the initiative within my group to become Wiki literate and therefore did the bulk of uploading and integrating the previously written Tamara Reports found HERE.

Also within the context of the overall automated design team, I have played a big part in writing and formatting the overall midterm report found HERE. I specifically wrote the assumptions section and three of the detailed algorithms found under the Hydraulic Design Function tab.

Finally I have made an effort to integrate myself into the overall team. A few weeks ago along with several other team members, I went to the Ithaca Youth Bureau to teach the children about our team, clean water and the demo plant. Below is a photo of me and one of the little girls at the Youth Bureau.

All other photos of this event can be found HERE.

As the semester proceeds, the Hydraulic Design team with the Unit Processes team will be making great strides to having a functioning, integrated master program. I also hope to stay involved in the outreach programs, including Mayfest.

Below are all the pages that I started and maintain.
