The existing drainage systems consider storm water as a waste product and its main focus is on collecting the runoff from urban catchments as quickly as possible and discharging it into the nearby outlets. Faisal Ahammed discusses the Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) technology, which can be implemented in the urban catchments to minimise the negative hydrological impacts due to urbanisation.

This video is a transcription of an interview discussing a study on water-sensitive urban design (WSUD) technologies in South Australia. The researchers aim to determine the optimum number and size of infiltration-based WSUD systems to manage stormwater and reduce hydrological impacts during urbanization. Unlike traditional drainage systems that focus solely on flood management and often discharge runoff into water bodies, WSUD attempts to retain and utilize stormwater resources.

The researcher notes that while there is substantial literature on technological advancements in WSUD, there is limited practical guidance on implementation in residential development. The study seeks to address this gap by applying statistical methods, specifically linear regression, to evaluate multiple factors affecting WSUD effectiveness, including roof area, rainfall intensity, soil conductivity, and storm management strategies.

The outcomes of the analysis are intended to provide practitioners, such as builders and consultants, with modeling equations to calculate optimal infiltration parameters for specific projects. Future research is suggested to incorporate the impacts of climate change and potentially develop a software tool that can streamline this process for practitioners. Overall, the research aims to improve urban stormwater management through a more sustainable and resource-preserving approach.

X-TIMESTAMP-MAP:LOCAL=00:00:00.000,MPEGTS=900000

00:00.105 --> 00:02.405
The main aim, for this study is

00:02.405 --> 00:04.325
to find out the optimum numbering

00:04.425 --> 00:07.685
and sizing of water sensitive urban design technologies.

00:08.065 --> 00:09.285
For South Australian context.

00:10.395 --> 00:12.735
Uh, water sensitive AR design is one kind

00:12.735 --> 00:16.535
of innovation in urban stormwater management, which

00:17.095 --> 00:21.795
minimizes, flooding, hydrological impacts

00:22.415 --> 00:24.195
in, on urbanization.

00:24.735 --> 00:28.195
So traditional, practices in the drain system

00:28.225 --> 00:31.675
through the drain system, we can actually capture the runoff

00:31.695 --> 00:35.435
as completely as possible, after the rainfall.

00:35.855 --> 00:37.075
And the main purpose

00:37.135 --> 00:39.755
of the traditional on the drain system is the flood

00:39.755 --> 00:43.715
management, but by means of our traditional drain system,

00:43.895 --> 00:47.355
we are actually losing our available on the water resources

00:47.355 --> 00:48.475
because we are capturing

00:48.495 --> 00:51.155
and we are discharging it into the nearby water bodies.

00:51.455 --> 00:54.555
So we would like to get an alternative option,

00:54.555 --> 00:56.555
which is actually water sensitive urban design.

00:56.975 --> 01:00.755
So through this, process, we can like, you know, go

01:00.755 --> 01:04.075
for urbanization, but now strong motor management system in

01:04.075 --> 01:07.355
such a way it'll minimize the hydro impacts even in the

01:07.355 --> 01:08.475
urbanization process.

01:08.825 --> 01:12.035
What have been, some, like in the studies,

01:12.035 --> 01:15.755
completed in the field of, water sensitive urban design,

01:15.985 --> 01:18.795
because this term is known as,

01:18.795 --> 01:21.075
the different terms in different regions.

01:21.265 --> 01:24.675
Like in North America, it is known as low impact development

01:25.295 --> 01:27.315
in, Europe and many other countries.

01:27.335 --> 01:30.075
It is known as sustainable urban drain system.

01:30.215 --> 01:32.395
In Australia and New Zealand, Singapore, it is known

01:32.395 --> 01:34.315
as water sensitive urban design.

01:34.815 --> 01:37.195
And in, in, some areas it is known

01:37.195 --> 01:38.355
as green infrastructure.

01:38.735 --> 01:42.475
So if we can combine these terms together, actually,

01:42.975 --> 01:46.595
the few resources, completed, many

01:46.595 --> 01:50.555
of them are in the field of, technological advancement.

01:50.695 --> 01:53.915
So technologically it is actually proven.

01:54.455 --> 01:57.475
But whenever we consider, like, you know, in,

01:57.475 --> 02:00.955
individual elopement wise, which is more practical

02:01.095 --> 02:04.715
to implement, actually the study is very limited.

02:05.335 --> 02:09.315
So individual, alert wise, the study completed in the areas

02:09.495 --> 02:11.155
of rainwater tanks,

02:11.455 --> 02:14.595
but we are looking for other water need alternatives.

02:14.595 --> 02:18.955
So to manage tro motor runoff in like, you know,

02:19.185 --> 02:22.955
indu in, in residential development wise, the study

02:23.135 --> 02:24.995
for water sensor urban design is very limited,

02:25.215 --> 02:27.275
and that's why we took one initiative,

02:27.585 --> 02:30.435
whether we can find out the optimum options,

02:30.905 --> 02:32.835
optimum numbering and optimum sizing

02:33.055 --> 02:36.275
of infiltration based water sensitive urban design in

02:36.275 --> 02:38.955
residential element wise in South Austin context,

02:39.295 --> 02:40.475
the optimum numbering

02:40.495 --> 02:41.995
and optimum sizing of water

02:42.275 --> 02:43.315
sensitive urban design technology.

02:43.315 --> 02:46.515
It depends on, many factors like what would be the,

02:46.515 --> 02:50.315
the area of the roof, what would the rainfall intensity,

02:50.495 --> 02:52.595
the soil hydraulic conductivity.

02:53.175 --> 02:55.875
Uh, sometimes the strategy of the TRO motor management

02:55.875 --> 02:58.675
because, whether we'd like to call it all the

02:58.675 --> 03:02.085
Runoff or we'd like to collect a partial, runoff.

03:02.665 --> 03:05.085
And now what is the critical storm duration?

03:05.435 --> 03:06.885
Like, there are many factors.

03:07.345 --> 03:10.125
So in order to combine all the factor together, we need

03:10.125 --> 03:12.165
to find out one statistical methodology.

03:12.505 --> 03:17.325
So we applied, linear regression, considering,

03:17.625 --> 03:18.805
all those methodology

03:19.305 --> 03:23.485
and all those, factors that I, I told you before.

03:24.875 --> 03:27.175
So like there are three different types

03:27.235 --> 03:31.015
of infiltration system, SOA

03:31.115 --> 03:32.455
and infiltration trends.

03:32.835 --> 03:34.735
So these three types of,

03:34.735 --> 03:38.855
infiltration systems were applied, considered few,

03:39.255 --> 03:41.775
variables under few like,

03:42.555 --> 03:44.535
sub catchments in South Australian.

03:44.755 --> 03:49.015
In the context we consider like whether a, like, you know,

03:49.015 --> 03:51.495
rainwater tank could be utilized in the ment wise

03:51.835 --> 03:56.495
or whether rainwater tank is not included in both way

03:56.725 --> 03:59.855
through regression analysis, through a statistical,

03:59.915 --> 04:03.775
the process by applying spss, model

04:04.155 --> 04:08.775
and considering like some factors, we try

04:08.775 --> 04:10.255
to find out the optimum numbering

04:10.255 --> 04:13.375
and sizing of infiltration based water sensor carbon is a

04:13.375 --> 04:15.055
technologies for southwestern context.

04:15.355 --> 04:18.415
Uh, we would like to find out some, modeling equation,

04:18.995 --> 04:20.655
which could help the practitioner

04:20.845 --> 04:24.095
because the, practitioner whenever, or the builder

04:24.495 --> 04:27.535
whenever they would like to know construct in housing,

04:27.535 --> 04:29.455
they would like to understand what would the optimum

04:29.455 --> 04:32.375
numbering and sizing of infiltration base, technology

04:32.435 --> 04:35.255
and which, technology, among liquid,

04:37.675 --> 04:39.615
could be the most appropriate.

04:40.075 --> 04:43.375
So now the modeling equation we develop,

04:43.555 --> 04:46.895
the practitioners and like, you know, real estate builder

04:47.115 --> 04:50.615
or consulting company could apply those equation

04:50.795 --> 04:53.455
and they can input other variables

04:53.555 --> 04:56.135
and they can get the accurate, number

04:56.195 --> 04:59.735
and sizing of in infiltration based water environment design

04:59.735 --> 05:00.855
for a particular element.

05:01.315 --> 05:03.335
It means that once they'll get the sizing

05:03.595 --> 05:06.375
and optimum numbering, like in the consulting company

05:06.395 --> 05:08.335
or the builder could understand like

05:08.805 --> 05:12.535
what is the most appropriate water sensitive technology

05:12.595 --> 05:15.015
for a particular, development, so

05:15.015 --> 05:18.655
that it could easily be, constructed in this study.

05:18.955 --> 05:23.735
Uh, some inputs are swallow hydro conductivity

05:24.235 --> 05:27.175
or rain for intensity, critical storm duration, et cetera.

05:27.715 --> 05:30.535
So these parameters could be a change due to the,

05:30.595 --> 05:31.775
climate change impacts.

05:32.155 --> 05:35.055
So maybe in future we could include climate change impacts

05:35.075 --> 05:37.215
to develop this, modeling equation.

05:37.635 --> 05:40.975
But in terms of practice, probably the next,

05:41.325 --> 05:44.575
like the step could be whether we could develop a software

05:44.955 --> 05:48.375
or maybe a model, whether like the practitioner

05:48.555 --> 05:52.695
or consulting open, they can input this model's model,

05:52.905 --> 05:54.335
input the variables in the model

05:54.675 --> 05:56.735
and can get the accurate numbering, the sizing

05:56.795 --> 05:59.645
Of infiltration based water sensitive IES technologies.

06:00.145 --> 06:02.645
So in, in short, like

06:03.535 --> 06:07.585
climate change impacts could be incorporated,

06:07.725 --> 06:11.225
for the start, the research findings we completed

06:11.565 --> 06:13.225
and maybe we would like to develop,

06:13.225 --> 06:16.065
one software based on the findings, in future.
