Book excerpt: Understanding how to properly manage urban stormwater is a critical concern to civil and environmental engineers the world over. Mismanagement of stormwater and urban runoff results in flooding, erosion, and water quality problems. In an effort to develop better management techniques, engineers have come to rely on computer simulation and advanced mathematical modeling techniques to help plan and predict water system performance. This important book outlines a new method that uses probability tools to model how stormwater behaves and interacts in a combined- or single-system municipal water system. Complete with sample problems and case studies illustrating how concepts really work, the book presents a cost-effective, easy-to-master approach to analytical modeling of stormwater management systems.

Book excerpt: Stormwater Modeling presents the fundamentals of deterministic, parametric, and stochastic stormwater modeling. It is assumed that the reader or student will have a basic background in science or engineering; however, the authors are of the opinion that one can comfortably read and understand this treatise with a fundamental knowledge of calculus and differential equations. The book has been written with the intent of reaching an audience concerned primarily with evaluating the effects of land use on stormwater for the purpose of doing feasibility studies, planning, and/or design work. The book is organized into five parts. Part I discusses various modeling concepts such as the definition of a mathematical model, the systems approach to model building, examples of parametric and deterministic modeling, and stormwater model optimization. Part II on deterministic modeling covers the modeling of overland and open channel flow; kinematic flow approximation; and estimation of time of concentration using kinematic wave theory. Part III covers parametric modeling and includes chapters on model optimization;. analysis of the effects of urbanization and logging on stormwater; and evaluation of the effects of strip coal mining on watershed hydrologic response. Parts IV and V deal with stochastic stormwater modeling and stormwater quality modeling, respectively.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analytical probabilistic urban stormwater models are closed-form mathematical equations relating statistical urban drainage system performance measures directly to meteorological parameters, system properties and design variables. These equations are formulated using derived probability distribution theory with simplified representations of the hydrologic and hydraulic processes taking place on urban catchments. The purpose of this thesis is to improve the representation of the hydrologic and hydraulic processes by existing analytical probabilistic models and to extend their use to flood control analyses. In developing the new set of analytical probabilistic models, the rainfall-runoff transformation on an event basis is described by equations which incorporate the hydrologic processes commonly considered in numerical simulation models. The peak discharge rate of a runoff event is estimated from the runoff event volume, the duration of the causal rainfall event and the catchment time of concentration. The average catchment time of concentration is used for all runoff events and is treated as a physical characteristic of the urban catchment, independent of input rainfall characteristics. Incorporating the exponential probability density functions of rainfall event characteristics, closed-form analytical expressions are derived for the return periods of runoff event volume and peak discharge rate of urban catchments. Furthermore, the water quality control performance of urban stormwater detention ponds are analyzed. Analytical expressions are derived for estimating the flow capture efficiency and average detention time provided by a stormwater quality control detention pond servicing an urban catchment. Taking into account the variable inflow and outflow rates, the detention ponds considered are those where outflow is controlled by an orifice-type structure. The flow capture efficiency is determined with the estimation of the total spill volume. The total spill volume is calculated as the combination of the event spill volume and the carryover spill volume. Thus, the carryover effect of consecutive runoff events is quantified. The analytical probabilistic approach is further extended to flood control analyses with the derivation of the probability distribution of the peak outflow rate from a flood control detention facility servicing an urban catchment. The derived mathematical expressions are used to analytically determine the storage-discharge relationship required for a detention facility to achieve the desired level of flood control. Continuous simulation of various urban catchments and detention pond configurations are conducted using Toronto historical rainfall records. Close agreement is obtained between simulation model results and those from the analytical probabilistic models developed in this thesis. Thus, the analytical probabilistic models can be used as an alternative to, or together with, continuous simulation models for the planning and design of urban stormwater management facilities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents three distinct pillars for analysis, design, and planning: urban water cycle and variability as the state of water being; landscape architecture as the medium for built-by-design; and total systems as the planning approach. The increasing demand for water and urban and industrial expansions have caused myriad environmental, social, economic, and political predicaments. More frequent and severe floods and droughts have changed the resiliency and ability of water infrastructure systems to operate and provide services to the public. These concerns and issues have also changed the way we plan and manage our water resources. Focusing on urban challenges and contexts, the book provides foundational information regarding water science and engineering while also examining topics relating to urban stormwater, water supply, and wastewater infrastructures. It also addresses critical emerging issues such as simulation and economic modeling, flood resiliency, environmental visualization, satellite data applications, and digital data model (DEM) advancements. Features: Explores various theoretical, practical, and real-world applications of system analysis, design, and planning of urban water infrastructures Discusses hydrology, hydraulics, and basic laws of water flow movement through natural and constructed environments Describes a wide range of novel topics ranging from water assets, water economics, systems analysis, risk, reliability, and disaster management Examines the details of hydrologic and hydrodynamic modeling and simulation of conceptual and data-driven models Delineates flood resiliency, environmental visualization, pattern recognition, and machine learning attributes Explores a compilation of tools and emerging techniques that elevate the reader to a higher plateau in water and environmental systems management Water Systems Analysis, Design, and Planning: Urban Infrastructure serves as a useful resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate students taking courses in the areas of water resources and systems analysis, as well as practicing engineers and landscape professionals.

This book was released on 2011-06-27 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: by Professor Poul Harremoes Environmental engineering has been a discipline dominated by empirical approaches to engineering. Historically speaking, the development of urban drainage structures was very successful on the basis of pure empiricism. Just think of the impressive structures built by the Romans long before the discipline of hydraulics came into being. The fact is that the Romans did not know much about the theories of hydraulics, which were discovered as late as the mid-1800s. However, with the Renaissance came a new era. Astronomy (Galileos) and basic physics (Newton) started the scientific revolution and in the mid-1800s Navier and Stokes developed the application of Newtons laws to hydrodynamics, and later, St. Venant the first basic physics description of the motion of water in open channels. The combination of basic physical understanding of the phenomena involved in the flow of water in pipes and the experience gained by "trial and error", the engineering approach to urban drainage improved the design and performance of the engineering drainage infrastructure. However, due to the mathematical complications of the basic equations, solutions were available only to quite simple cases of practical significance until the introduction of new principles of calculation made possible by computers and their ability to crunch numbers. Now even intricate hydraulic phenomena can be simulated with a reasonable degree of confidence that the simulations are in agreement with performance in practice, if the models are adequately calibrated with sample performance data.

This book was released on 2009-03-17 with total page 611 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rapid conversion of land to urban and suburban areas has profoundly altered how water flows during and following storm events, putting higher volumes of water and more pollutants into the nation's rivers, lakes, and estuaries. These changes have degraded water quality and habitat in virtually every urban stream system. The Clean Water Act regulatory framework for addressing sewage and industrial wastes is not well suited to the more difficult problem of stormwater discharges. This book calls for an entirely new permitting structure that would put authority and accountability for stormwater discharges at the municipal level. A number of additional actions, such as conserving natural areas, reducing hard surface cover (e.g., roads and parking lots), and retrofitting urban areas with features that hold and treat stormwater, are recommended.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The intense concentration of human activity in urban areas leads to changes in both the quantity and quality of runoff that eventually reaches our streams, lakes, wetlands, estuaries and coasts. The increasing use of impervious surfaces designed to provide smooth and direct pathways for stormwater run-off, has led to greater runoff volumes and flow velocities in urban waterways. Unmanaged, these changes in the quantity and quality of stormwater can result in considerable damage to the environment. Improved environmental performance is needed to ensure that the environmental values and beneficial uses of receiving waters are sustained or enhanced. Urban Stormwater - Best-Practice Environmental Management Guidelines resulted from a collaboration between State government agencies, local government and leading research institutions. The guidelines have been designed to meet the needs of people involved in the planning, design or management of urban land uses or stormwater drainage systems. They provide guidance in ten key areas: *Environmental performance objectives *Stormwater management planning *Land use planning *Water sensitive urban design *Construction site management *Business surveys *Education and awareness *Enforcement *Structural treatment measures *Flow management Engineers and planners within local government, along with consultants to the development industry, should find the guidelines especially useful. Government agencies should also find them helpful in assessing the performance of stormwater managers. While developed specifically for application in Victoria, Australia, the information will be of value to stormwater managers everywhere.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1978, research efforts at the University of Toronto have included the development of analytical probabilistic models for urban drainage systems analysis. These models have been developed to the stage where their implementation in engineering practice may be of significant utility. The massive public investments required for urban infrastructure must be made on a cost-effective basis and, in order to optimize system design, performance analysis methods are necessary. The models presented herein represent but one technology which may be useful in the planning of urban drainage systems. Developed using derived probability theory, these models are capable of assessing system performance over the full range of meteorological conditions with relative ease when compared to their simulation counterparts. The use of such models in planning-level studies is thus practical where detailed analyses of drainage systems is typically unwarranted. Furthermore, the computationally efficient nature of the models lends them favourably to the solution of optimization problems. This thesis is a synthesis of the past two decades of research into this topic and is intended for use as a comprehensive reference by practitioners, researchers and students.
