Simulation of Rainfall Runoff and Pollution Control by Sponge City Based on SWMM— A Case Study of Sponge Demonstration Area in Guangming District, Shenzhen by LU Qiaohui, HUANG Yilong, PENG Zhiren

“…In order to quantitatively study the control effects of sponge city construction on runoff volume and runoff pollution,taking the sponge demonstration area in Guangming District,Shenzhen as the example,this paper simulates and analyzes the rainfall runoff process under the normal year and rainfall events of different return periods based on SWMM model.The conclusions are as follows:① Sponge city construction could significantly benefit the reduction of runoff volume and runoff pollution,but the effects would decrease if lacking the follow-up maintenance for sponge facilities.② Sponge facilities could evidently reduce the runoff volume and runoff pollution with rainfall return periods less than 5 years.Otherwise,the effects on runoff volume reduction,runoff peak delay,peak runoff volume reduction and suspended solid (SS) removal would weaken.③With the increase of the rainfall intensity,the final SS concentration would decrease under the dual action of sponge and rainfall runoff.The results show that degraded sponge facilities could restrain the control effects on rainfall runoff,which are of significance for sponge city construction and maintenance.…”

Optimization Design of Gear Parameter of a Tri-polar Parallel Gear Pump by Wang Shuangzhen

“…The optimization design of a tri-polar parallel gear pump is carried out by taking the minimum volume of the pump body as the objective function.In the mathematical model,the gear parameters such as modulus,tooth numbers,and thickness are taken as design variables,and the constraint condition is that the tri-polar parallel gear pump can meet the prescribed performance requirements.In the objective function,the volume of pump is replaced by the total volume of 4 mounting holes of addendum circles,which accurately reflects the volume of pump.In the process of solving optimization mathematical model,a new three-dimensional step-by-step search algorithm is proposed according to the characteristic that the formula of the objective function is very complex and the modulus,tooth numbers of gears are discrete variables.Thus an optimization algorithm for the tri-polar parallel gear pump designing is provided,and through an example,the feasibility and effectiveness of the algorithm are verified.…”
