RISFramework for Investigating the Impact of Distribution, Quantity, and Infiltration and Outlet Design Characteristics of Vegetated Basins in the Headwaters of a Watershed
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Vegetated basins are one type of stormwater control measure (SCM) that uses a depression to control runoff volume and enhance water quality. Within this depression, the infiltration and outflow are affected by the infiltration ...
How Students Spend Their Time
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An analysis was performed of how students spend their time while pursuing a bachelor of science in civil engineering at Villanova University. The purpose of this study was to determine how many hours per week students spent ...
Hydrologic Performance of a Multicell Vegetated Basin with Different Soil and Outlet Structure Characteristics
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Green stormwater infrastructure, also known as stormwater control measures (SCMs), is a sustainable solution that has been widely used in controlling stormwater runoff in developed areas. Stormwater intensity and land use ...
Calibration of Flow and Transport Model with a Bench-Scale Prefabricated Vertical Drain Remediation System
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Two experiments were undertaken to study the effectiveness of a remediation system that utilizes prefabricated vertical drains (PVDs). The results of these experiments were evaluated using a Bayesian decision framework. ...
Predicting Ecological Effects of Watershed-Wide Rain Garden Implementation Using a Low-Cost Methodology
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Stormwater control measures (SCMs) have been employed to mitigate peak flows and pollutants associated with watershed urbanization. Downstream ecological effects caused by the implementation of SCMs are largely unknown, ...
Application of a Monitoring Plan for Storm-Water Control Measures in the Philadelphia Region
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Storm-water control measures (SCMs), also known as storm-water best management practices (BMPs), are increasingly being used to mitigate the impacts of development and restore the hydrologic cycle. This paper presents a ...
Modeling Soil Matrix Hydraulic Properties for Variably-Saturated Hydrologic Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This article presents a method to estimate soil matrix hydraulic properties to be used for variably-saturated hydrologic analysis, such as rainfall/runoff and stormwater management analyses, among others. The methods are ...

Publisher:
Abstract: This article presents a method to estimate soil matrix hydraulic properties to be used for variably-saturated hydrologic analysis, such as rainfall/runoff and stormwater management analyses, among others. The methods are ...
Evaluation of Soil Class Proxies for Hydrologic Performance of In Situ Bioinfiltration Systems
Publisher:
Abstract: The hydrologic performance of in situ bioinfiltration systems (bioretention systems with no fill media or underdrain) is quantified and soil classes are evaluated as proxies for design requirements. A one-dimensional (1D) ...
Multiyear Performance of a Pervious Concrete Infiltration Basin BMP
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The use of infiltration storm-water best management practices (BMPs) has become a more commonly used approach as a means of reducing postdevelopment runoff volumes in many areas throughout the United States. Although studies ...
