    Abstract : The shrinking of permeable areas in favour of urban development is a phenomenon described in both scientific literature and policy documents. Changes in rainfall intensity and frequency following climate change are expected, but predicting the exact magnitude of these changes remains unclear. READ MORE

  4. 3. Predicting inflow and infiltration to wastewater networks based on temperature measurements

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Martin Åsell; [2024]
    Keywords : Inflow and Infiltration; I I; CNN; Linear regression;

    Abstract : Sewer pipelines are deteriorating due to aging and sub optimal material selections, leading to the infiltration of clean ground and rainfall water into the pipes. It is estimated that a significant portion (up to 40-50%) of the water entering wastewater treatment plants is actually clean infiltrated water. READ MORE
