When drinking with others it is critically important to
recognize the significant variations in how an individual processes
alcohol, and what that means in terms of the BAC. Size matters
because smaller people generally have less Total body Water.
A) Derive a dynamic systems model capable of the following
parameterizations:
a. Drinking pattern. Consumption pattern of alcohol over a
period of time
b. The ratio of body water to total body weight,
c. Body weight,
d. Rate at which alcohol is metabolized,
e. Remaining BAC.
B) Model the following scenarios:
a. You are drinking with 2 friends. You consume 4 beers of your
choice over the period of 4 hours in a drinking pattern of your
choice. Compute how long it will take for your BAC to reach a level
considered safe to drive.
b. Your one friend is consuming wine at 4 glasses (250 ml) of
wine of their choice over the 4 hour period in a drinking patter of
their choice. Compute how long it will take for your friend’s BAC
to reach a level considered safe to drive.
c. Your other friend is consuming 2 wiskeys (25 ml each) and 2
tequilas (25 ml each) of their choice over the 4 hour period in a
drinking patter of their choice. Compute how long it will take for
your friend’s BAC to reach a level considered safe to drive.
