(promotor) Faculty Civil Engineering and Geosciences Department Hydraulic Engineering Date 2013-09-18 Abstract More than half the world population is living in urban areas, and this trend is likely to continue during the coming decades. As a consequence, many cities around the world are facing considerable pressure to cope with urban development, sustaining economic growth, and providing basic needs and living conditions. In many parts of the world urban infrastructure is aging, in other parts there is uncontrolled urbanization with considerable pressure on economic resources. There is a clear need to be able to predict urban growth and assess the implications for investments and improve the effectiveness of interventions in urban water systems.
