The course aims to provide the engineering students the elements necessary for the characterization of the urban hydraulic infrastructures (water supply and drainage networks) in a systematic perspective focused at facing the increasing pressures imposed by climate change. The course is organized as a series of theoretical lessons in which are provided the knowledge necessary for the hydraulic assessment of pressure and free surface networks, the understanding of the functionality of the main hydraulic devices and the evaluation of appropriate mitigation strategies (Best Management Practices) to reduce the effects of climate changes.
