Among the urban aquatic pollutants, the most common is sediment which also acts as a
transport medium for many contaminants. Hence there is an increasing interest in being able …

One of the main steps in assessing flood risk in urbanised areas is the quantification of
damage costs. Damage is often estimated based on depth‐damage curves for which depth …

A one-dimensional numerical overland flow model based on the cascade plane theory was
developed to estimate rainfall-induced runoff and soil erosion on converging and diverging …

Generally, roofs are the best candidates for rainwater harvesting. In this context, the correct
evaluation of the quantity and quality of runoff from roofs is essential to effectively design …

The kinematic wave theory has been a widely accepted technique for modeling overland
flow. Although it is recognized that overland flow is nonlinear, linear approximations have …

In this paper, we present the development and application of a new multidimensional,
unstructured-mesh model for simulating coupled overland/open-channel flows in the …

Rainfall simulation is widely used in the laboratory and in field work to produce artificial
rainfall for small-scale surface hydrology and soil erosion studies. Simulated rainfall …

This paper presents a two-dimensional (2D) numerical model of soil erosion and sediment
transport resulting from rainfall induced overland flow. It is a spatial and temporal dynamic …

Urban surface sediment is a major source of pollution as it acts as a transport medium for
many contaminants. Accurate modelling of sediment wash-off from urban surfaces requires …

Rainfall-induced surface runoff combined with soil erosion is one of the most important
surface hydrological processes and its harmful impact on the environment and communities …
