Afløbssystemer og urban regnvandshåndtering

• Design simple urban drainage and stormwater management systems
• Analyse existing systems to identify areas in risk of flooding
• Propose a range of solutions to solve flood and surcharge problems, and document the effect of these solutions
• Dimension the most important system structures such as pipes, basins and overflow structures as well as nature based solutions and ocal infiltration devices
• Use advanced simulation software for urban stormwater systems (e.g. MIKE+)
• Understand the perspective of latest trends in digitalization of urban drainage systems – including new data and model products and digital twins
• Quantify frequency and volume of overflows
• Estimate pollutant loads to recipients
• Choose between different types of raindata for use on different types of problems
• Identify the main sources of uncertainty in model assessments and compare to uncertainty from climate change and growth of cities
