Abstract: Imperviousness is an important indicator of the impact of urbanization on storm water systems. A hydrologic analysis was performed to evaluate long-term impacts from an apartment area in Miami. The result shows that the ...

Abstract: As watersheds are urbanized, the amount of impervious surfaces will be increased. As such, water infiltration will be reduced, and the volume of surface runoff will be increased. By retaining stormwater, best management ...

Abstract: An optimization method for urban wet-weather control (WWC) strategies is presented. The developed optimization model can be used to determine the most cost-effective strategies for the combination of centralized storage-release ...

Abstract: Time domain continuous simulation models using simple or detailed process models are routinely used to analyze storm-water control options. The interest in decentralized controls has generated the need to develop tools ...

Abstract: A permeable pavement system can capture stormwater to reduce runoff volume and flow rate, improve onsite groundwater recharge, and enhance pollutant controls within the site. A new unit process model for evaluating the ...
