Urban water management has to take an integrated approach that
prioritizes sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) over gray
infrastructure. This book elaborates on the planning and evaluation
of pipework drainage systems with a focus on modern-day constraints
to deliver a solution that favors sustainability as the overarching
goal. The book includes a technical section on design of gray and
green infrastructure, considering the total lifecycle costs of
drainage systems. Advanced computer simulation techniques are
discussed after covering the derivation of both standard and
empirical equations for appropriate hydrology and hydraulics. The
book provides an incorporation of reliability analyses for both
green and gray infrastructure starting with techniques for
forecasting flows, hydraulic performance, and lifecycle costs. The
work also involves 3-D modeling, geospatial and big data analysis,
and how these techniques are applied into city
management—particularly beneficial to municipal engineers who are
increasingly becoming involved in mapping the underground. Soil
mechanics and subsurface drainage systems are analyzed and
structural aspects of sewers are included. Finally, soil behavior
in shear, retaining wall structures, and tunneling is briefly
featured in the book. This book will be of interest to
(under)graduate and postgraduate engineering students, drainage
engineers, urban planners, architects, water engineers, developers,
construction contractors, and municipal engineers.
