[EN] This paper proposes a methodology for the layout selection of an urban drainage system as an extension to the methodology for an optimal sewer network design proposed by Duque, Duque, Aguilar, & Saldarriaga. The layout ...

[EN] This paper proposes a method to include drop manholes in the optimal design of sewer networks. These structures dissipate energy and reduce flow velocity, which is important in hilly regions where high slopes induce ...

[EN] When designing a sewer system, the goal is to find the design with the lowest cost while complying with the hydraulic constraints. However, with the emergence of new concerns like climate change and high-density ...
