I am an enginnering student and I have been given an assignment on how to model a stormwater management system.
Can you please provide me with some help and the steps necessary to complete the assignment
A simple example of a drawing would be much appreciated.
I have all information on porosity and permeability of the materials through which the rainwater will pass through.
State also any assumption that can be made to facilitate this task.

the engineers wants to check the strength of hollow
rectangular section of size 20 cm X 24 cm and 16 cm X 20 cm. For
that purpose how will you help the engineers in finding the
strength by using its moment of inertia, polar moment of inertia
and radius of
gyration?

A hydrologic budget is performed on a section of lake to determine the expected evaporation in inches per month. The surface area of the of the lake is 250 acres. The inflow is 1500 cfs, the outflow was 1450 cfs, the infiltration is 5 inch/month, and the precipitation is 10 inches/month of precipitation over the lake. The overall increase in storage is 0.4 ft/day. Note: Assume that 1 month has 30 days.(show work)
