Runoff Volume Reduction Using Green Infrastructure
Land, 2021 Uncontrolled urbanization is a frequent cause behind the local flooding of catchment areas. This also results in a degradation of water quality in receivers, as well as causing a disruption of the natural water cycle in the catchment. Classical solutions,

FAULT DIAGNOSIS UNDER MULTIPLE SEQUENTIAL FAULTS OF THE RAIN-GAUGE NETWORK USED TO CONTROL THE BARCELONA SEWER SYSTEM [PDF]
IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 2005 Abstract This paper discusses the problem of fault diagnosis under multiple sequential faults occurrence. In industrial applications this type of fault is the most common since the continuous operation of systems/processes is required. The fault diagnosis algorithms should cope with such type of multiple faults, but degradation in their fault ...

On the use of semi-distributed and fully-distributed urban stormwater models [PDF]
, 2015 Urban stormwater models comprise four main components: rainfall, rainfall-runoff, overland flow and sewer flow modules. They can be considered semi-distributed (SD) or fully distributed (FD) according to the rainfall-runoff module definition.

Heavy rainfall: An underestimated environmental risk for buildings?
E3S Web of Conferences, 2016 Although impacts of heavy rain on buildings in urban areas are often extensive, the public usually underestimates the negative consequences of that environmental risk compared e.g. to storm or hail events.
