ABSTRACT The study assessed static management, i.e., without planned periodic maintenance of the storage (no sediment dredging) denoted as SC1, or with SC2. second approach was dynamic management based on applying Real-Time Control (RTC) techniques to scenario SC1 and SC2 RTC-1 RTC-2, respectively. UCT dam RTC-2 approaches increase yield by 2.1 1.1 ml, Additionally, volumetric reliability 5.3 2.5%, respectively, while maintaining required level service a stormwater harvesting system. results in water savings up 21.15 21.45 ZAR/kl, could save 19.35 19.45 ZAR/kl. Thus, configurations approximately 9% comparison RTC. In addition, harvested at relatively lowest unit cost RTC configurations. Notwithstanding this finding, system exhibits great potential reshaping simultaneously deliver conservation management.

This study employs a comprehensive multi-objective efficiency index (EI) to assess urban flood mitigation strategies. The EI enables the simple interpretation of strategy’s with value range between −1 (low efficiency) and 1 (high efficiency), which represents practical communication tool for decision makers, engineers, researchers. was tested at site Feldbach (Austria) an integrated 1D–2D model distributed hydrological model. A total 112 scenarios were analysed six strategies, built from three future challenge scenarios, two observed heavy storm events, pre-conditions. For given site, analysis identifies strategies implemented in rural boundary areas as most effective. novel aspect this is consideration water balance change, highlighting its impact on EI. highlights importance analysing each relevant process separately determine order understand why strategy more or less efficient.

Advances in sensing and controlling technology accelerate the application of real-time control (RTC) stormwater management.RTC enables existing urban drainage systems (UDSs) to be retrofitted autonomously controlled adapt increasing runoff volume peak flow rates associated with extreme storm events.The goal this research is utilize RTC promote resilient UDSs' performance against disturbances induced by climate land cover changes.The present study investigates cost-effectiveness enhancing flooding resilience.We developed an predictive adaptation strategy at incremental levels (0%, 33%, 67%, 100%) using Python U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Storm Water Management Model (SWMM).A UDS located Salt Lake City, Utah, USA, served as case study.Results showed that implementation smart enhances resilience up 37% under future combined changes rainfall intensity imperviousness.The partially (67% 33% levels) outperforms fully system (100% level) when factoring costs.RTC a cost-effective strategy: one million USD investment 3.2% 30year life cycle.These findings support establishing approaches create new generation adaptive uncertain conditions.

Assessing the resilience of urban drainage systems requires consideration future disturbances that will disrupt system’s performance and trigger flooding failures. However, most existing assessments rarely consider uncertain threats from redevelopment climate change, which leads to underestimation toward system performance. This paper fills in gap assessing combined relative impacts impervious land cover rainfall changes on context a densely infilled catchment served by an Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. An event-based index is proposed measure change urbanization floods. Compared with traditional metric, can climatic urbanized each event; new assist engineers harvesting high-resolution infrastructure adaptation strategies at vulnerable spots level junction level. Impact comparison for case study shows surface induce greater effects curves magnifying maximum failure level, lengthening recovery duration, aggravating severity than intensity changes. A nonlinear logarithmic correlation found; this finding more sensitive imperviousness due study. research work predicts response induced redevelopment, improving understanding impact analysis, contributes advancement resilient changing environments.

Increases in the integrated application of smart sensing and control technologies enable urban drainage engineers to retrofit stormwater storage facilities with controllers actuating valves gates address flooding water quality problems across entire watershed.This objective becomes increasingly challenging because simultaneously controlling spatially distributed assets solve issue at downstream outlet sites does not necessarily alleviate overflow upstream ponds.To that end, this study presents a system-level real-time simulation for assessing performance trade-off between mitigation outlets improvements units like detention pond.Using benchmarked model located southeast Michigan, USA, watershed-scale challenges, we investigated temporal changes depth, flow, total suspended solids under different strategies, including one individual operated only most site two controls all sites.Modeling results show reduces peak shortens duration, removes pollutant load, by up 7.3%, 34%, 65%, respectively.However, always perform better than strategy, especially addressing duration outlet.This modeling work advances realtime understanding building adaptive management solution against quantity issues.

Green stormwater infrastructure (GI) is widely adopted for addressing urban flooding challenges. Another rising solution that complementary to, but distinguishable from GI, smart real-time control (RTC). However, the outcomes of battle between RTC and GI has been unknown. This research compares performance to mitigate climatic urbanized influences on historical future floods; a case study located in Sugar House neighborhood Salt Lake City, Utah, USA, was provided. Results show have comparable reduce severity 2001-2015, outperforms improving resilience future. Especially 2085 2099, maintains system service level against disturbances better than GI. work improves understanding about how brings benefits controlling floods.

Traditional stormwater control measures are designed to handle system loadings induced by fixed-size storm events. However, climate change is predicted alter the frequency and intensity of flooding events, stimulating need explore another more adaptive solution like real-time (RTC). This study assesses performance RTC mitigate impacts on urban resilience. A simulated, yet realistic, drainage in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA, shows that improves resilience up 17% under climatic rainfall changes. Compared with green stormwatrer infrastructure (GSI), exhibits a lower resistibility, failure level, higher recovery rate curves. Results articulate keeping RTC’s consistent ‘back-to-back’ storms requires tradeoff between upstream dynamical operation downstream functionality loss. research suggests provides new path towards smart resilient management strategy.
