1. 1. Effects of Maintenance on the Efficiency of NBS for Urban Flood Management

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Julia Markström; [2023]
   Keywords : Stormwater management; Nature-Based Solutions NBS ; Maintenance; Efficiency; Runoff volume reduction; Dagvattenhantering; Natur-baserade lösningar; Underhåll; Effektivitet; Dagvattenreducering;

   Abstract : As rain events are likely to intensify and the proportion of impervious areas in cities increases, greater demands are put on stormwater management. Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) have become more popular over the past decades to be integrated into the stormwater strategy in order to reduce the volume of runoff in cities. READ MORE

3. 2. Efficiency of sustainable urban drainage systems during flash floods

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Snærós Axelsdóttir; [2022]
   Keywords : Bioretention Cell; Rain Garden; Infiltration Trench; Green Roof; Permeable Pavement; Stormwater runoff; Storm Water Management Model;

   Abstract : As the world’s population is migrating more into urban areas, landcover changes follow. Natural pervious areas are being converted to impervious areas, which when subjected to rain generates more stormwater runoff. READ MORE

4. 3. Modeling LID-units in SWMM

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

   Author : Petter Mogenfelt; [2017]
   Keywords : DRAINMOD; SWMM; storm water modeling; LID; LOD; SUDS; bio-retention cells; EPA; underdrains; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The LID control in US EPA SWMM5 includes modeling of Green-Ampt infiltration through the soil layer which assumes that only matrix flow is present. The LID control also models drainage through perforated underdrains. In this study, data and premade PCSWMM models, utilizing the SWMM5 engine, were provided for two test sites in North America.

5. 4. DRAINAGE SYSTEM AND STORM WATER MANAGEMENT FOR NDOLA CENTRAL BUSINESS AREA, ZAMBIA

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

   Author : David Titus Banda; [2016]
   Keywords : Underbridge; Ndola; Central Business Area CBA ; Sustainable Urban Drainage System SUDS ; Storm Water Management Model SWMM ; Flooding.; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Flooding of urban areas is a worldwide problem as cities grow and the amount of impermeable surfaces increase generating more surface runoff. In the Zambian city of Ndola, the capital of the Copperbelt Province, flooding occurs in some parts of the city especially on Dag Hammarskjöld Drive at the underbridge, which has been flooding every rainy season consecutively for 8 years now.
