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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Public Health Considerations for PM₁₀ in a High-Pollution Megacity: Influences of Atmospheric Condition and Land Coverage
(MDPI, 2021)
[Abstract] This paper analyzes the PM₁₀ concentrations and influences of atmospheric condition (AC) and land coverage (LC) on a high-pollution megacity (Bogota, Colombia) from a public health viewpoint. Information of ...
Hydraulic, Wash-off and Sediment Transport Experiments in a Full-Scale Urban Drainage Physical Model
(Nature, 2020)
[Abstract] This paper presents a dataset obtained from hydraulic and sediment transport experiments performed in a full-scale urban drainage physical model of 36 m2. The study seeks to accurately measure sediment mobilization ...
Analysis of Particulate Matter Concentration Intercepted by Trees of a Latin-American Megacity
(MDPI, 2021)
[Abstract] Urban areas with trees provide several ecosystem services to citizens. There is a growing interest in ecosystem services for the removal of air pollutants such as particulate matter. The objective of this paper ...
Influence of sediment characteristics on long-term hydrology and water quality behaviour during the clogging process of a permeable asphalt
(Elsevier, 2023)
[Abstract:] Sustainable urban drainage systems (SUDS) are common solution to address flow discharges, runoff volumes and pollutant concentrations caused by urban expansion and climate change trend. Among them, permeable ...
Análisis integral del lavado y arrastre de sólidos en suspensión en cuencas urbanas utilizando un simulador de lluvia a escala real
(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2022)
[Resumen:] Ante la falta de datos experimentales precisos para el desarrollo y validación de modelos de lavado y transporte de sedimentos
en la superficie de cuencas urbanas, en este estudio se presenta una serie de ensayos ...
