Project Abstract

Abstract
Urban areas experience challenges with stormwater management due to increasing urbanization and climate change impacts. This research focuses on the design and analysis of sustainable urban drainage systems to address these challenges. The study aims to investigate innovative stormwater management strategies and technologies that promote sustainability and resilience in urban environments. Chapter One provides an introduction to the research topic, a background of the study, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure, and definition of terms. The introduction sets the context for the study, highlighting the importance of sustainable urban drainage systems in mitigating flooding, pollution, and infrastructure damages in cities. Chapter Two presents a comprehensive literature review covering ten key aspects related to sustainable urban drainage systems. This section explores existing research, theories, and practices in stormwater management, green infrastructure, sustainable design principles, climate change impacts, and urban planning strategies. Chapter Three outlines the research methodology, including data collection methods, analysis techniques, and tools used in the design and analysis of sustainable urban drainage systems. This chapter also discusses the selection criteria for case studies and simulations to evaluate the performance of different stormwater management approaches. Chapter Four presents the findings of the study, discussing seven key aspects related to the design and analysis of sustainable urban drainage systems. The results of case studies, simulations, and data analysis are presented, highlighting the effectiveness of various stormwater management strategies in reducing runoff, improving water quality, and enhancing urban resilience. Chapter Five concludes the research by summarizing the key findings, implications, and recommendations for future research and practice in sustainable urban drainage systems. The study underscores the importance of integrating green infrastructure, low-impact development techniques, and nature-based solutions to create more sustainable and resilient urban environments. Overall, this research contributes to the knowledge base on sustainable urban drainage systems and provides valuable insights for policymakers, urban planners, engineers, and researchers working towards more sustainable and climate-resilient cities.
