Modeling of Dynamic Systems: An Innovative Approach
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Engineers have always been interested in describing the time‐dependent response of physical systems, whether they be the motion of a spring or the biogeochemical state of a wastewater stabilization pond. Because of the ...
Nonlinear Runoff Modeling: Parameter Identification
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A nonlinear functional rainfall‐runoff model is applied to an urban watershed (Curotte‐Papineau, Montréal) and the results are compared with those from the ILLUDAS model. Simulations are performed using a 5 minute time ...
Two‐Stage Urban Runoff Forecast Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Storm‐related pollution in general, and combined sewer overflows in particular, have been found to contribute significant amounts of pollutants to receiving water bodies. Control of pollution from these nonpoint sources ...
Grey Dynamic Programming for Waste‐Management Planning under Uncertainty
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The present paper introduces a grey dynamic programming (GDP) method by incorporating concepts of grey systems and grey decisions within a dynamic programming framework as a means for decision making under uncertainty. The ...
