Hydrological and hydraulic effects of urban development is one of the key issues of study for improved water management. The addition of impervious surfaces to once pervious land and re-routing open channels and flow paths can cause flooding or declining water levels within a watershed. Many studies of these issues have found that there can be multiple factors causing hydrological and hydraulic impacts, and it can be hard to analyze and develop effective solutions without appropriate drainage software packages. However, there are multiple software packages available for use, and determining the correct one to use for a specific challenge can …

Flooding are likely to increase worldwide due to climate change. Large storms, referred here as superstorms, defined as events with return period equal or larger than 100 years, can lead to an increase of property damages and loss of life. The ability to predict and plan for the impacts of superstorms on transportation infrastructure is key to mitigate future damages and losses. This study analyzed 51 combinations of future projections for representative concentration pathways (RCP) 4.5 and 8.5 scenarios, which were used to calculate future 1st and 3rd quartiles, median, minimum and maximum intensity-duration-frequency curves (IDF). A HEC-HMS and GSSHA …

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Increases in the intensity and frequency of extreme events in Western North America (WNA) can cause significant socioeconomic problems and threaten existing infrastructure. In this study we analyze the impacts of climate change on hydroclimatic extremes and assess the role of internal variability over WNA, which collectively drain an area of about 1 million km2. We used gridded observations and downscaled precipitation, maximum and minimum temperature from seven General Circulation Models (GCMs) that participated in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) and a large ensemble of CanESM2 model simulations (CanESM2-LE; 50 members) for this analysis. Spatial …

Diagnóstico De La Infraestructura De Los Sistemas De Abastecimiento De Agua Potable En Zonas Rurales De Cinco Municipios Del Departamento De Cundinamarca, Julio César Torres Morales
Ingeniería Civil
Colombia es un país que se encuentra en vía de desarrollo, está compuesto por 32 departamentos con una gran variedad de zonas y con distintos relieves tales como: valles, llanura y dos sistemas montañosos, la infraestructura para el abastecimiento de agua y manejo de aguas residuales son parte importante en el desarrollo. El objetivo principal de este trabajo de grado es obtener un diagnóstico que permita identificar las condiciones de abastecimiento de agua en las zonas rurales del departamento de Cundinamarca en Colombia. Para lograr lo anterior se medirá, evaluará y caracterizará: la forma mediante las que se abastecen de …
