RIBEIRO, Filipe  and  LIMA, Fernando. Exploring urban metrics: development of an algorithmic-parametric tool for support in urban drainage in Juiz de Fora. GOT [online]. 2019, n.18, pp.126-152. ISSN 2182-1267.  https://doi.org/10.17127/got/2019.18.006.

Inadequate urban development and the uncontrolled drainage of rainwater have been causing intense disruption to urban centers. The adoption of computational tools in the study of water behavior has been increasingly explored. In this context, this work aims to present the development of an algorithmic-parametric tool, based on the fundamentals of the Rational Method, which allows to identify the coefficient of surface runoff of rainwater and maximum flow of a certain basin. The Rhinoceros software and the Grasshopper plugin were used for its elaboration. The positive points achieved are the ease of doing simulations / manipulations and the satisfactory results found. As a fragile point, it is pointed out the difficulty in recognizing the soil cover.
