Optimal Distribution Of Best Management Practices (Bmps) For Urban Stormwater Runoff Quantity And Quality Control, Rezaei Abdul Razaq
Optimal Distribution Of Best Management Practices (Bmps) For Urban Stormwater Runoff Quantity And Quality Control, Rezaei Abdul Razaq
Student Works (2020-2029)
The vast development of urban areas throughout the world has substantially impacted the natural landscapes, leading to more imperviousness. Urbanization typically results in a larger amount of runoff volume, increase in flow frequency, duration and peak runoff, faster time of concentration as well as lower infiltration which will affect groundwater recharge. The stormwater runoff quality is also adversely affected in urban areas due to the pollutant loads in stormwater runoff. Best Management Practices (BMPs) and Low Impact Development (LID) have been widely applied to urban impervious surfaces to reduce urban stormwater runoff and improve water quality. In order to achieve …
Evaluation And Inter-Comparison Of Satellite Precipitation Estimations For Extreme Flood Events In Peninsular Malaysia, Zhen Xiang Eugene Soo
Evaluation And Inter-Comparison Of Satellite Precipitation Estimations For Extreme Flood Events In Peninsular Malaysia, Zhen Xiang Eugene Soo
Student Works (2020-2029)
Satellite precipitation products (SPP) have been useful in any hydrological applications as their extensive spatial coverage and finer space and time resolutions. However, these satellite estimations exhibit large systematic and random errors which may cause large uncertainties in any hydrological applications. In this study, three advanced satellite precipitation products, i.e. CMORPH, TRMM 3B42V7, and PERSIANN are utilized in conjunction with the ground observation to investigate their performance in detecting rain, capturing storms and rainfall pattern during extreme flood events. This study evaluates and compares the capability of the SPP by focusing on the 2014-2015 northeast monsoon extreme flood events. Three …
Water Infiltration Study On Slopes, Tian Huat Low
Water Infiltration Study On Slopes, Tian Huat Low
Student Works (2000-2009)
Study was carried out in the field using infiltrometer and in the laboratory using “sprinkler model”. Studies on infiltration have always been part of hydrology and Irrigation engineering. Infiltration forms the link between surface and subsurface hydrology. Infiltrated water must be quantified and subtracted from the surface runoff in flood prediction studies and surface water management. Numerous researchers have actually incorporated infiltration into the slope stability analysis of the residual soils, e.g., Othman (1990), Affendi et. al.(1992, 1996) and Suhaimi and Abdul Rahman (1997). In most analysis of slope stability, the infiltration rate of the slopes is assumed uniform throughout …
