In this work an alternative and innovative usage for urban drainage systems was explored, in which barriers were installed in upstream underground conduits. This approach intends to use such components to retain water in upstream sections of a given drainage system, reducing water inflows that reach its downstream sections and, consequently, their overload degree. As a result of this work, a rule-based control system was developed responsible for continuously monitoring the state of a given drainage system and performing the necessary control actions on a set of installed barriers. This control system was applied in drainage systems with a given set of properties, being subjected to typical rainfall events with distinct profiles. This study, supported by more than a thousand experiments, enabled considerable flow reductions in downstream sections. With the developed control system it is possible to prevent flood events within certain limits. When this task becomes impossible water withdrawals to external retention basins can be promoted, avoiding the need to perform any intervention.2016-07-01info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesishttp://hdl.handle.net/10316/99228http://hdl.handle.net/10316/99228engLeitão, Joaquim Pedro Bento Gonçalves Pratasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2022-03-09T23:12:57Zoai:estudogeral.uc.pt:10316/99228Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T21:16:53.380145Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
