Storm-Water Predictions by Dimensionless Unit Hydrograph
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a theoretical derivation of a dimensionless unit hydrograph using the kinematic wave approach. The dimensionless kinematic wave unit hydrograph (KWUH) is normalized by the parameters associated with the ...
Closure to “Storm-Water Predictions by Dimensionless Unit Hydrograph” by James C. Y. Guo
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Volume-Based Imperviousness for Storm Water Designs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The concept of low impact development (LID) is to apply decentralized on-site runoff source control to preserve the watershed hydrologic and ecological functions. An integrated layout using bioretention and vegetated ...
Conservative Design Rainfall Distribution
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To design urban storm water infrastructures, hydrologists apply the SCS Types I, II, and III
Conversion of Natural Watershed to Kinematic Wave Cascading Plane
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Storm water management models using the kinematic wave (KW) approach require the conversion of a natural watershed to its equivalent rectangular cascading plane. AKW cascading plane is specified by the plane’s area, width, ...
Least-Cost and Most Efficient Channel Cross Sections
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: It has been a long-standing concern to decide if a channel should be designed to have the highest hydraulic efficiency or the least cost. In this study, a large amount of channel construction costs were reviewed and analyzed ...
Retrofit Storm Water Retention Volume for Low Impact Development
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The concept of low impact development (LID) applies decentralized on-site runoff source control to storm water management. LID is an integration of bioretention and vegetated landscapes to maintain a catchment’s hydrologic ...
