Design of Wastewater Systems – SewerGEMS – AulaGEO

Course Objective: The course “SewerGEMS: Sewer System Design” aims to provide students with a deep and practical understanding of the OpenFlows SewerGEMS software, used for modeling and designing sanitary sewer systems. Through this course, participants will learn to create, analyze, and optimize sewer models, addressing both gravity and pumped systems.

Methodology: The course methodology is based on practical exercises that allow students to apply theoretical concepts to real-world situations. Each section of the course is designed to guide participants through a structured process, starting with the basic software setup and advancing to complex modeling and simulation of various operational scenarios. #AulaGEO The practical exercises include:

• Configuration of gravity sewer models.
• Integration of pumping elements into sanitary systems.
• Modeling of loads under different weather conditions.
• Comparison and analysis of scenarios.
• Constraint-based sewer design.

Target Audience: This course is intended for civil engineers, sewer system designers, urban planners, engineering students, and professionals in the field of hydraulics and hydrology who wish to enhance their skills in using OpenFlows SewerGEMS. No prior experience with the software is required, but basic knowledge of civil engineering and sewer system design is recommended. #AulaGEO
