Worked Example #1
Modelling the performance of gross pollutant traps, sedimentation basins and the use of the generic node option.
This worked example was developed to demonstrate how gross pollutant traps can be modelled with user input of reported performance data of their ?proprietary? gross pollutant traps.

Worked Example #2
Modelling the performance of bioretention systems and swales.
This worked example examines the range of techniques that can be adopted in modelling a bioretention system. The selection of appropriate model parameters and model setup is dependent on the actual system configuration of the bioretention system.
Modelling vegetated swales requires the user to first determine the dimensions of the open channel to meet discharge capacity requirements and modelling will include defining the influence of vegetation height on water quality performance.

Worked Example #3
Modelling the performance of constructed wetlands.
This worked example demonstrates how the various components of a constructed wetland system can be modelled with MUSIC and the influence of model parameters on its water quality improvement performance.

Case Study #1
Describes a hypothetical urban retrofit scenario where a stormwater management strategy for a built-up catchment is to be developed.
MUSIC is used to evaluate the opportunities for constructing a swale and wetland system in an existing park, the retrofit of a wetland system in an existing retarding basin, the use of bioretention system along median of main roads etc.

Case Study #2
Describes a hypothetical greenfield residential development where the street layout, cul-de-sac and entrance boulevard present opportunities for implementation of water sensitive urban design (WSUD).
The receiving water is a creek of high environmental value with relatively steep banks along the riparian corridor.

Case Study #3
Describes a hypothetical case of how WSUD can be incorporated into a house allotment.
WSUD elements include the use of rainwater tanks, vegetated swales along driveways, landscape irrigation, bioretention treatment and aquifer storage.
