This book presents three distinct pillars for analysis, design, and
planning: urban water cycle and variability as the state of water
being; landscape architecture as the medium for built-by-design;
and total systems as the planning approach. The increasing demand
for water and urban and industrial expansions have caused myriad
environmental, social, economic, and political predicaments. More
frequent and severe floods and droughts have changed the resiliency
and ability of water infrastructure systems to operate and provide
services to the public. These concerns and issues have also changed
the way we plan and manage our water resources. Focusing on urban
challenges and contexts, the book provides foundational information
regarding water science and engineering while also examining topics
relating to urban stormwater, water supply, and wastewater
infrastructures. It also addresses critical emerging issues such as
simulation and economic modeling, flood resiliency, environmental
visualization, satellite data applications, and digital data model
(DEM) advancements. Features: Explores various theoretical,
practical, and real-world applications of system analysis, design,
and planning of urban water infrastructures Discusses hydrology,
hydraulics, and basic laws of water flow movement through natural
and constructed environments Describes a wide range of novel topics
ranging from water assets, water economics, systems analysis, risk,
reliability, and disaster management Examines the details of
hydrologic and hydrodynamic modeling and simulation of conceptual
and data-driven models Delineates flood resiliency, environmental
visualization, pattern recognition, and machine learning attributes
Explores a compilation of tools and emerging techniques that
elevate the reader to a higher plateau in water and environmental
systems management Water Systems Analysis, Design, and Planning:
Urban Infrastructure serves as a useful resource for advanced
undergraduate and graduate students taking courses in the areas of
water resources and systems analysis, as well as practicing
engineers and landscape professionals.
