Abstract
This paper summarizes an extensive review on the applicability of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) in urban hydraulics and hydrology. The identified areas for ANN application include rainfall — runoff — sewer flows, snowmelt — runoff-sewer flows, stormwater and Combined Sewer Overflow quality modeling, Total Loading Analysis, and Real Time Control. This paper also introduces the results of two recent ANN applications in City of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. One is the early warning system for the Enhanced Preliminary Treatment (EPT) facility to treat the wet weather flow at the Goldbar wastewater treatment plant and the other is the prediction of Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) based on monitored rainfall data.
