Coupling artificial neural networks with the artificial bee colony algorithm for global calibration of hydrological models
(Springer, 2021)[Abstract:] Hydrological models are widely used tools in water resources management. Their successful application requires an efficient calibration of the model parameters. Nowadays, there are very powerful global search ... -
Deep Learning-Based Wave Overtopping Prediction
(MDPI, 2024-03-20)[Abstract]: This paper analyses the application of deep learning techniques for predicting wave overtopping events in port environments using sea state and weather forecasts as inputs. The study was conducted in the outer ... -
Determinación de la inundación en tramos de ríos afectados por marea basada en la simulación continúa de nivel
(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2017)[Resumen:] Las desembocaduras, estuarios y tramos de ríos costeros son elementos hidrodinámicamente complejos debido a la interacción de varias dinámicas generadoras de inundación como la marea astronómica, la marea ... -
Development and Calibration of a New Dripper-Based Rainfall Simulator for Large-Scale Sediment Wash-off Studies
(MDPI, 2020)[Abstract] Rainfall simulators are useful tools for controlling the main variables that govern natural rainfall. In this study, a new drop-forming rainfall simulator, which consists of pressure-compensating dripper grids ... -
Development of a global SDG progress index aimed at “leaving no one behind”
(MDPI, 2020)[Abstract:] The United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) constitute a set of shared global objectives for the development over the coming years, which both developed and developing countries are working together ... -
Diseño de pavimentos permeables en España: situación actual y necesidades futuras
(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2022)[Resumen:] Los sistemas de pavimento permeable son una de las técnicas de drenaje urbano sostenible mejor consideradas para la gestión sostenible de las aguas pluviales. El presente trabajo tiene como objetivos ... -
Drinking Water Provision and Quality at the Sahrawi Refugee Camps in Tindouf (Algeria) From 2006 to 2016
(Elsevier, 2021)[Abstract] Drinking water provision has been a constant challenge in the Sahrawi refugee camps, located in the desert near Tindouf (Algeria). The drinking water supply system is itself divided in three zones which pump ... -
Dynamic calculation of breakwater crown walls under wave action: influence of soil mechanics and shape of the loading state
(MDPI, 2019)[Abstract:] As a consequence of the action of waves on rubble mound breakwaters, there are loads—both on the vertical and horizontal sides of the crown walls—which modify the conditions of their stability. These loads ... -
Dynamical Study of a Moored Vessel Using Computer Vision
(Springer, 2018)[Abstract]: Wind and wave effects have a major impact on the design of mooring and anchoring systems, whose purpose is to prevent the movement of the cargo and the moored ship while optimizing the operations which have to ... -
Editorial: flood susceptibility and risk maps as a crucial tool to face the hydrological extremes in developing countries: technical and governance aspects linked by a participatory approach
(Frontiers Media, 2022)[Abstract:] In summary, this Research Topic wants to draw attention to two points of reflection: 1) The need to involve stakeholders at all levels in the planning of actions aimed at reducing the risks associated with ... -
Editorial—Physical Modelling in Hydraulics Engineering
(MDPI, 2021)[Abstract] Note: In lieu of an abstract, this is an excerpt from the first page: Laboratory experiments and field works play a crucial role in hydraulic research, development, and design as many hydraulic processes elude ... -
Effect of rainfall uncertainty on the performance of physically based rainfall–runoff models
(Wiley, 2019)[Abstract:] This paper analyses the effect of rain data uncertainty on the performance of two hydrological models with different spatial structures: a semidistributed and a fully distributed model. The study is performed ... -
Estimation of flood-exposed population in data-scarce regions combining satellite imagery and high resolution hydrological-hydraulic modelling: A case study in the Licungo basin (Mozambique)
(Elsevier, 2022)[Abstract:] Study Region Licungo basin (Mozambique) Study Focus The Licungo basin (23,263 km2) suffers frequent severe flooding due to tropical storms, in a country that is among the world’s most vulnerable in terms of ... -
European stakeholders’ visions and needs for stormwater in future urban drainage systems
(Taylor & Francis, 2023)[Abstract:] Transitioning urban drainage systems to serve water-smart societies requires the involvement of different disciplines and stakeholders. However, stakeholders have different visions and needs from the transitioning ... -
Evaluation of 2D Hydrodynamic-Based Rainfall/Runoff Modelling for Soil Erosion Assessment at a Seasonal Scale
(Elsevier, 2024)[Abstract:] Badlands are often the source of a significant fraction of the sediment reaching the river network due to the exposure of the bare soil to the impact of rain drops and to the bed shear stress generated by the ... -
Experimental analysis of the pseudo-compact tension (pCT) testing configuration using two alternative sample geometries
(IOP Publishing, 2021)[Abstract:] The pseudo-compact tension (pCT) method recently proposed by Muñoz-Ibáñez et al. (2020) is a satisfactory approach to measure mode I fracture toughness (KIC) in rocks and other materials using disc-shaped samples ... -
Experimental and Numerical Analysis of Egg-Shaped Sewer Pipes Flow Performance
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2016)A Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model was developed to analyze the open-channel flow in a new set of egg-shaped pipes for small combined sewer systems. The egg-shaped cross-section was selected after studying several ... -
Experimental Device for the Determination of Fracture Toughness at High Pressure
