文摘This paper presents a new method to determine parameters in the nonlinear mathematical model of the urban rainfall intensity formula. The method transforms the nonlinear equation into a linear one, and incorperates a damping factor and a step factor to improve the precision of the calculated results. It works out the parameters based on given rainstorm intensity, period of the recurrence of rainstorm and lasting time of the rainfall. The results turns out to have the smallest residual error compared with those obtained by several other methods and satisfy the related standard. The method proves of fast convergence, desirable generality, stability and accuracy, which overcomes the defects of other existing numeral methods.
