New insights to study the accumulation and erosion processes of fine-grained organic sediments in combined sewer systems from a laboratory scale model
(Elsevier, 2020)
[Abstract:] The deposition and resuspension of sediments are issues of considerable concern in combined sewer systems management. Sediments can produce the loss of hydraulic capacity and odour generation in sewers, and are ...
Assessment of the performance of drought indices for explaining crop yield variability at the national scale: Methodological framework and application to Mozambique
(Elsevier, 2020)
[Abstract:] Droughts are one of the most damaging and complex natural disasters in the world, and they frequently affect agricultural production. Drought monitoring is essential for decision-makers seeking to minimize the ...
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 ...
Application of an Analytic Methodology to Estimate the Movements of Moored Vessels Based on Forecast Data
(MDPI, 2019-09)
[Abstract]: A port’s operating capacity and the economic performance of its concessions are intimately related to the quality of its operational conditions. This paper presents an analytical methodology for estimating the ...
Field measurements of angular motions of a vessel at berth: Inertial device application
(Romanian Soc Control Tech Informatics, 2018)
[Abstract]: The study and characterization of the oscillations of a moored vessel has a major importance in port operational efficiency, not only in the design of mooring and anchoring systems, but also in order to prevent ...
A rapid flood inundation model for hazard mapping based on least squares support vector machine regression
(Wiley, 2019)
[Abstract:] Two-dimensional shallow water models are widely used tools for flood inundation mapping. However, even if High Performance Computing techniques have greatly decreased the computational time needed to run a 2D ...
Using a 2D shallow water model to assess Large-Scale Particle Image Velocimetry (LSPIV) and Structure from Motion (SfM) techniques in a street-scale urban drainage physical model
(Elsevier, 2019)
[Abstract:] Physically-based numerical modelling of surface processes in urban drainage, such as pollutant wash-off or the assessment of flood risks, requires appropriate calibration and terrain elevation data to properly ...
Investigation of uniform and graded sediment wash-off in an urban drainage system: numerical model validation from a rainfall simulator in an experimental facility
(Elsevier, 2024)
[Abstract:] Understanding sediment wash-off in urban environments plays an essential role in sediment transport management; and is critical for accurate pluvial flood control to assist in adaptation and mitigation strategies. ...
Towards urban drainage sediment accumulation monitoring using temperature sensors
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2023)
[Abstract:] Sewer sediments are among the main concerns related to urban drainage system management as they represent the largest contribution of suspended solid loads during rainfall events due to their resuspension. This ...
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 ...
