music training

eWater offers both face to face and online training for music. More information is available via tabs below.

Face to face

music training workshop

music Training Workshops are provided over two days and includes two modules, Getting to know music and Intermediate music.

Day One - Getting to know music

Getting to know music will enable participants to apply the music software and understand the theory and assumptions behind the model. Users learn how to simulate and evaluate the performance of stormwater treatment measures, either singly or in a treatment train.

Day Two - Intermediate music

Intermediate music builds on Day 1 of the course. It enables participants to gain a greater understanding of the theory behind music and its application to successfully design and model stormwater treatment systems. Users will also complete a series of tutorials on various stormwater treatment scenarios and develop a model for a real urban development.

Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) is discussed throughout the workshop. Real world WSUD example projects are described and discussed, as well as recommended procedures for the planning and design of the most appropriate WSUD strategies for site conditions and constraints.

Learning outcomes

Day One - Getting to know music

To give new users of music:

  • An introduction to Water Sensitive Urban Design.
  • An introduction to the music model.
  • An ability to interpret output from music simulations.
  • A brief overview of the theory and assumptions behind music.
  • Hands on experience at building, running and reviewing music models.

Day Two - Intermediate music

To give new users of music:

  • A detailed background on the theory of music component models.
  • Methodologies to use applying music to urban stormwater management scenarios.
  • Hands on experience in configuring music for modelling different treatment measures.
  • Examination of stormwater management applications and their benefits and limitations.

music v3 to v4 transition course

The music v3 to v4 Transition Course is designed to provide a more detailed insight into the new  features incorporated in music v4.

The course is divided into two main sections. The first section Version 4 New Features, provides a brief overview of all new features included in music v4. This includes textural descriptions of the new features as well as screenshots and several videos showing the new features in action.

The second section of the course ‘Focus Features’ comprises four detailed and sub-sections of some of the more significant new features in music v4. It essentially expands on the brief overview provided in the Version 4 New Features for some of the more important v4 features. This includes a discussion on background information (i.e., science), instructional information outlining how to use the new features, as well as exercises that will enable you to use the new features incorporated in music v4 for yourself in a practical setting.

After completing the course, students should have a good understanding of the differences between music v3 and v4 and be in a position to apply the new features in music v4 to projects of your own.

Learning outcomes
