Computer-Aided Modelling of Stormwater Systems deals with the construction of probabilistic models of rainfall and their use in the sizing of retention tanks. The book discusses methods of sensitivity and uncertainty analysis of hydrodynamic models of urban catchments, as well as proprietary calculation algorithms for the sizing of retention tanks, considering the uncertainty of calibrated parameters and the variability of outflow hydrographs from the catchment and shape parameters. This is important from the point of view of contemporary hydrology of urban catchments because it is the reliability of the identified parameters and their appropriate selection that determines the developed hydrodynamic model of the catchment, so that it finds a practical application in sewage network management. Also included are innovative graphical and analytical methods of tanks sizing, whereby the shapes of hydrographs of the outflow from the catchment area are considered, which is omitted in most of the methods used. Hybrid models which are a combination of graphical and analytical methods with probabilistic models of rainfall are also presented, which makes it possible to shorten the calculation time. Finally, the ability to implement computational algorithms in the field of sensitivity and uncertainty analysis can also be used when analysing catchments with implemented green infrastructure facilities.

Computer-Aided Modelling of Stormwater Systems is aimed at doctoral students, research workers and engineers as an introduction to modern methods of modelling stormwater and combined sewer networks together with the objects located on it, such as retention tanks.

Descrizione libreria

**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe.

We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book.
