  1. 6. Flood modelling in urban areas : A comparative study of MIKE 21 and SCALGO Live

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Evelina Andersson; [2021]
    Keywords : SCALGO Live; MIKE 21; Stormwater Model; Flood Model; Cloudburst; Inundation; Comparative;

    Abstract : Pluvial flooding originating from extreme rainfall is problematic and an increasing issue in Sweden. Higher requirements on adapting cities in urban areas to these challenges have been placed on both municipalities and the county administration. Thus, an increased need for water modelling, both in existing and planned areas have emerged. READ MORE

  2. 7. How design storms with normally distributed intensities customized from precipitation radar data in Sweden affect the modeled hydraulic response to extreme rainfalls

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Daniel Elfström; Max Stefansson; [2021]
    Keywords : cloudbursts; cloudburst mapping; spatial rain variation; pluvial flooding; hydraulic response; Swedish precipitation radar data; idealized urban catchment; hydrodynamic modeling; skyfall; skyfallskartering; gaussisk regnfördelning; spatial regnvariation; pluvial översvämning; hydraulisk respons; svensk nederbördsradardata; idealiserat urbant avrinningsområde; hydrodynamisk modellering;

    Abstract : Intense but short-term cloudbursts may cause severe flooding in urban areas. Such short-term cloudbursts mostly are of convective character, where the rain intensity may vary considerably within relatively small areas. Using uniform design rains where maximum intensity is assumed over the whole catchment is common practice in Sweden, though. READ MORE

  3. 8. A Nonlinear Reservoir Model to Simulate Blue-Green Stormwater Systems – An Application to Augustenborg Catchment in Malmö, Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Emmanuel Ekwu; [2021]
    Keywords : Blue-green stormwater control; Nonlinear reservoir routing model; Stormwater; Modelling; Calibration; Water engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The increasingly rapid urbanization has led to vast impervious surface areas in the urban environment. This situation of impervious surfaces has increased the surface temperature and interrupted the natural water circle, which has negatively impacted the urban environment. READ MORE

  4. 9. Modelling of stormwater treatment in biofilters using MIKE+ : Possibilities and limitations

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Cecile Bouju; [2021]
    Keywords : Biofilter; Raingarden; Stormwater treatment; Stormwater management; Hydrological modelling; MIKE ; ECO Lab; Biofilter; Växtbädd; Dagvattenrening; Dagvattenhantering; Hydrologisk modellering; MIKE ; ECO Lab;

    Abstract : As research has expanded on the environmental impact of stormwater on receiving ecosystems more focus is now being put on the quality issues of stormwater. Biofilters are one of many nature-based solutions that have been developed for that purpose and are also the subject of this study. READ MORE

  5. 10. High resolution modelling and analysis of urban flooding

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Angelos Kosmas; [2019]
    Keywords : Tokyo Storm Runoff model; TSR; urban flooding; Augustenborg; stormwater management; pipe networks; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The predictions on climate change and precipitation patterns in the near future, as well as urbanization, lead to higher volumes of runoff, which in turn challenge the sustainability and functionality of urban drainage pipe networks. In order to understand how these changes will affect the existing infrastructure in urban areas, integrated urban water model software are needed to identify effective solutions to minimize urban flooding.
