Overordnede kursusmål:
The aim is to provide participants the general skills and knowledge
needed to design and analyse urban drainage and stormwater systems.
Knowledge is provided in the most important hydraulic and
hydrological processes as well as entry level extreme statistics on
rainfall and flooding. Skills are provided in the traditional way
of dimensioning drainage and stormwater systems by hand calculation
as well as in the use of a state-of-the-art software for dynamic
simulation of urban stormwater systems under heavy rain (MIKE
URBAN). The course focuses on both water quantity and quality and
will introduce both traditional and novel solutions to manage
stormwater.
Læringsmål:
En studerende, der fuldt ud har opfyldt kursets mål, vil kunne:
Design a complete combined urban drainage system
Analyse existing systems to identify areas in risk of
flooding
Propose a range of solutions to solve flood and surcharge
problems, and document the effect of these solutions
Dimension the most important system structures such as pipes,
basins and overflow structures as well as local infiltration
devices
Use advanced simulation software for urban stormwater systems
(MIKE URBAN)
Simplify existing stormwater models to gain faster simulation
time while maintaining the most important system dynamics
Quantify frequency and volume of overflows
Estimate pollutant loads to recipients
Choose between different types of raindata for use on different
types of problems
Identify the main sources for uncertainty and compare to
uncertainty from climate change and growth of
cities
