Introduction of rain gauges into monitoring of sewer systems: Experiences in choosing, testing and installing the measuring equipment [PDF]

, 2005
U cilju poboljšanja efikasnosti rada postojećeg kanalizacionog sistema u uslovima povećane urbanizacije, javlja se potreba da se preciznije utvrde elementi bilansa voda koje se transportuju ovim sistemom. Na slivu kanalizacione crpne stanice "Čukarica", kao pilot modelu u sistemu Beogradskog vodovoda i kanalizacije, jedna od predviđenih aktivnosti je ...

Efficiency of stormwater control measures for combined sewer retrofitting under varying rain conditions: Quantifying the Three Points Approach (3PA) [PDF]

Environmental Science & Policy, 2016
Abstract We present a method to assess and communicate the efficiency of stormwater control measures for retrofitting existing urban areas. The tool extends the Three Points Approach to quantitatively distinguish three rainfall domains: (A) rainwater resource utilisation, (B) urban stormwater drainage pipe design, and (C) pluvial flood mitigation ...

THE VIOLENCE OF FULL COST RECOVERY: Financing Water Infrastructure, and the History and Future of Perpetual Crisis in Mombasa

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Foregrounding the role of finance, this article examines the historical production and future trajectory of the urban water crisis in Mombasa. Drawing on archival research and contemporary fieldwork, it traces how principles of full cost recovery—institutionalized during the colonial period and later reworked through postcolonial ...

Combined fluvial and pluvial urban flood hazard analysis: concept development and application to Can Tho city, Mekong Delta, Vietnam [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2016
Many urban areas experience both fluvial and pluvial floods, because locations next to rivers are preferred settlement areas and the predominantly sealed urban surface prevents infiltration and facilitates surface inundation.

Crossroads of the Life of Vittorio Alfieri

Journal for Eighteenth-Century Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines Vittorio Alfieri's Life as a deliberately constructed narrative of cultural, linguistic, and political self‐fashioning within eighteenth‐century European intellectual networks. Rather than treating the autobiography as a transparent record of experience, the article argues that Alfieri retrospectively reorganizes his ...

Street‐to‐Pipe Diagnosis of Compound Rain–Tailwater Flooding in a Coastal Combined Sewer System: Sewer Pre‐Filling and Outfall Throttling

Earth's Future
Compound flooding in coastal cities occurs when heavy rainfall coincides with tide‐driven tailwater that reduces combined sewer system (CSS) discharge capacity, yet this coupling is rarely quantified from street to pipe scale.

Sewer sediment deposition prediction using a two-stage machine learning solution

Journal of Hydroinformatics
Sediment accumulation in the sewer is a source of cascading problems if left unattended and untreated, causing pipe failures, blockages, flooding, or odour problems.

The Role of Environmental Variables in Waste Stabilization Ponds' Morphodynamics

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2019
In management of helminth infections and transmission, the correct prediction of sludge accumulation patterns in waste stabilization ponds (WSP) is important as sedimented eggs are associated with sludge depth.

A Simple Method to Develop a Formula for Estimating Concentration Time of Drainage Design

Aceh International Journal of Science and Technology, 2020
Concentration time of rainfall is an important aspect to determine drainage design. A general rational formula is used to determine design flood or peak flow in urban drainage planning, especially for storm sewer design.

Gender inequality in urban British Africa: Evidence from Anglican marriage registers

The Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract We examine the colonial origins and evolution of gender inequality in mission schooling and formal labour force participation across six cities in British colonial Africa, using marriage register data for some 30,000 Anglican brides and grooms well‐positioned to benefit from colonial educational and employment opportunities.
