U.S.-Italy Bilateral Seminar on Urban Storm Drainage; Cagliari, Italy, July 1988

该奖项将支持由Ben Chie教授组织的联合研讨会 伊利诺伊大学厄巴纳-香槟分校的Yen和Carlo教授 意大利卡利亚里大学的Cao博士对科学和 城市雨水排水技术 研讨会将重点讨论 以下专题：实验性城市流域、 城市排水、渗透和其他损失 环境，陆上，排水沟和下水道流量，滞留储存， 城市排水的风险考虑，雨水管理，暴雨 水建模和数据作为一个限制因素，以及水质。 每年都有数十亿美元用于暴雨排水 在美国的设施，意大利等发达国家，不向 提及因洪水造成的损失所花费的金额， 环境恶化。 了相当大的进展 对过去城市雨水排放技术的研究 25年来，美国和 意大利。 虽然美国的研究主要集中在污染方面， 减排，管理和计算机建模，意大利人有 强调设计和修复 排水设施。 通过召集调查人员， 共同问题的补充办法，这次讲习班应 有助于推进这一领域的研究。

This award will support a joint workshop, organized by Prof. Ben Chie Yen of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and Prof. Carlo Cao of the University of Cagliari, Italy, on the science and technology of urban storm drainage. The workshop will focus on the following topics: experimental urban basins, rainfall analysis for urban drainage, infiltration and other losses in the urban environment, overland, gutter, and sewer flows, detention storage, risk considerations in urban drainage, storm water management, storm water modeling and data as a limiting factor, and water quality. Every year several billions of dollars are spent on storm drainage facilities in the U.S., Italy and other developed countries, not to mention the amounts spent for damages due to flooding and deterioration of the environment. Considerable progress has been made on the technology of urban storm drainage over the past twenty-five years by researchers in both the United States and Italy. While research in the U.S. has focused on pollution abatement, management, and computer modeling, the Italians have emphasized methodologies for the design and rehabilitation of drainage facilities. By bringing together investigators with complementary approaches to common problems, this workshop should help to advance research in this area.
