|
This course is an introduction to urban hydrology and urban drainage systems. This course is intended to serve as a follow on course for undergraduates who have completed CE 355 Water Resources and for Graduate students interested in engineering hydrology in the urban setting. Specifically this course will focus on the engineering techniques and unique issues associated with estimating and designing for rainfall/runoff in an urban metropolitan area. The course will provide a brief review of the fundamental hydrologic processes and hydraulic techniques used in urban hydrology. Also discussed will be reservoir and routing of floods through stream channels, and culverts, and storm sewers. This course is intended to serve as a pre-requisite for additional graduate classes in hydrology dealing with urban drainage, storm water modeling and contaminant transport. Prerequisite: CE 355WI.
