Fractional Kinetic Model for First Flush of Stormwater Pollutants
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: By generalizing the urban ground as a fractal surface and revising the classical Fick’s formula as a law of dispersion with a fractional-order derivative, a fractional kinetic model is developed for simulation of the first ...
Analytical Closed-Form Solution for 1D Linear Kinematic Overland Flow under Moving Rainstorms
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An analytical solution for overland flow under (upstream and downstream) moving storms that uses Laplace transformation to solve the one-dimensional (1D) linear kinematic wave equation is presented. This solution, which ...
Longitudinal Hillslope Shape Effects on Runoff and Sediment Loss: Laboratory Flume Experiments
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Catchment geomorphology is one of the most important factors governing runoff and erosion. However, its complexity is difficult to describe accurately; thus, for simplicity, many studies assume hillslopes with a uniform ...
