A Method to Assess Plant Behavior in Green Stormwater Infrastructure
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: There has been a rise in interest to quantify evapotranspiration (ET) in green stormwater infrastructure (GSI), and to do so in easier and cheaper ways than full-scale research sites. This study evaluated using a leaf ...
Predictive Maintenance of Stormwater Infrastructure Using Internet-of-Things Technology
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Operations and maintenance (O&M) practices are becoming increasingly scrutinized as storm events become more frequent and intense, surpassing the design storms that dictated the original capacity. In order to get the ...
Risk-Based Methodology for Evaluation of Bioinfiltration Design and Performance
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Green infrastructure practices are being implemented as a sustainable way to manage stormwater. Many communities are implementing green infrastructure practices on their own and in conjunction with gray infrastructure ...
Modeling Infiltration in Green Stormwater Infrastructure: Effect of Geometric Shape
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Geometric shape can play an important role in modeling and designing green stormwater infrastructure (GSI) systems because of its influence on system infiltration processes. The effects of GSI system geometry were assessed ...
Multicriteria Prioritization of Research Needs in Urban Green Stormwater Infrastructure
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Advances in green stormwater infrastructure (GSI) and extensive implementation of GSI in urban areas warrant further research by municipalities on different aspects of GSI systems (e.g., planning, modeling, design, ...
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 ...
Evapotranspiration in Rain Gardens Using Weighing Lysimeters
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Predictive Evapotranspiration Equations in Rain Gardens
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Current stormwater control measure (SCM) design often does not include the dynamic process of evapotranspiration (ET) for vegetated systems. This study compared two reference ET equations with a three-year data set from ...
Three-Dimensional Numerical Modeling of Urban Green Stormwater Infrastructure Curb Inlets
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The current equations for curb inlet opening sizing often inaccurately estimate the capture efficiency of small urban green stormwater infrastructure (GSI) curb inlets. Most of these equations are based on studies with ...
