| Research Abstract |
The objectives of this study is developing a numerical model to predict inundation due to heavy rainfall with high accuracy. Comparison with experimental data enabled to develop a sophisticated model to evaluate interaction flow rate between the ground surface and sewerage system, and longitudinal water level profile along a series of sewer pipes and manholes. Furthermore, to evaluate mitigation effect of underground storage facilities, a numerical model was developed to estimate overflow rate over a vertical weir from a sewer pipe to those storage facilities.
