Even if 2D modeling by XPSWMM, PCSWMM, HEC-RAS, and InfoWorks has become popular these days, 1D modeling still holds its ground on storm water management and flooding study due to…

Head Losses (or energy losses) associated with conduits in a storm sewer system include pipe friction losses and minor losses. Pipe friction losses are normally solved by Manning’s equation, while…
A storm water pump station (Figure 1) is needed in low areas of a drainage system where drainage by gravity is not possible, such as a depressed roadway segment. Pump…
SCS Curve Number (CN) method, proposed by USDA Soil Conservation Service (SCS, now known as NRCS), has been widely used for infiltration loss and runoff calculation due to its simplicity…
Unit hydrograph transform method for precipitation-runoff process is widely used by many H&H modeling tools, but EPA SWMM has its own method known as nonlinear reservoir runoff method which treats…
The Deficit and Constant Loss Infiltration Method can be implemented in HEC-HMS, HEC-RAS (2D rain-on-grid), and InfoWorks to account for precipitation loss through infiltration and percolation. In order to facilitate…
HydroCAD and XPSWMM have the modified rational method built into the programs and it is very convenient to apply the method in either of the modeling tools. One or more…
XPSWMM is a popular 1D and 2D hydrologic and hydraulic modeling tool developed by Innovyze. Though originally XPSWMM was designed primarily to model storm sewer network system, it has gained…
