RESUMO

This thesis aims to analyze urban drainage complex systems in order to define a technique for the design of detention ponds structures. In this study, Urban Drainage Complex Systems are those composed of several detention ponds, distributed in a network of channels formed by various reaches. This type of system is typical in megacities. The design of the reservation structures in complex networks has a number of constraints, in other words, it is a function of several variables, many of them are randomness. The main one is the design rainfall. This thesis develops a joint technical of simulation and the design rainfall scenario generation delayed in time and space to deal with the variability of design precipitation. From the hydrological point of view, there are other constraints for scaling, depending on the type of reservation adopted. There are basically two types of detention ponds for flood control in cities, on-line detention and off-line detention, each performance has its own characteristics that must be considered when the system is designed. This thesis presents an iterative design technique for composing a set of detention ponds (on-line or off-line) that satisfy the degree of protection required for an urban watershed. The methods were evaluated in hypothetical basins typical of large cities. Thus, a series of variables was included in an attempt to generalize the proposed method. The results showed the importance of design rainfall scenario generation. It is practically impossible to work today with the classical assumptions to define the design rainfall; the scenario generation allows evaluating system performance under different hydrological conditions. Finally, we emphasize that this thesis presents a new approach to sizing and it certainly will require further research and improvements. It seeks to bring the discussion to implementation of new paradigms for development projects in the field of urban drainage in large cities.
