Incorporating Flood Hazards into Pavement Sustainability Assessment
Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2021The functional and structural performance of pavement infrastructures are at risk from climate change impacts. However, past sustainability assessment studies do not consider how the performance of infrastructure will be affected by a changing climate.

Debris‐Flood Hazard Assessments in Steep Streams
Water Resources Research, 2022AbstractDebris floods most commonly occur in steep mountain channels and on their alluvial fans but can also occur on small gravel bed rivers with watershed areas up to several hundred square kilometers. This became obvious during July 2021 and November 2021 debris floods in northwestern Germany and southwestern British Columbia, Canada.

Flood Hazard Assessment and Flood Inundation Mapping—A Review
2020Flood is one of the most common destructive natural disasters. The damage due to flood is huge and irreparable. Flood hazard is a combination of several factors which include both natural and manmade. Flood inundation map is one of the most essential tools which help urban and infrastructure planners for the future development of city. In this paper, a

Flood Hazard Assessment and Mitigation
1999A flood is an overflowing of water from rivers onto land not usually submerged. Floods also occur when water levels of lakes, ponds, reservoirs, aquifers and estuaries exceed some critical value and inundate the adjacent land, or when the sea surges on coastal lands much above the average sea level.

Flooding in Peloponnese, Greece: a contribution to flood hazard assessment
2011Flooding is one of the most important types of disasters in southern Greece with many victims and extended damages over the last century. The increase in population together with the augmented pressure for urban expansion has increased flood risk during the last decades considerably across southern Europe. Peloponnese is not an exception in this regime,

Flood hazard and risk assessment in Russia
Natural Hazards, 2016Flood risk assessment is usually performed by application of sophisticated mathematical models of river flow. However, there are cases when it is required to assess the risk in the lack of data conditions or a limited time available. In such cases, it is advisable to use some simplifications, which provide reliable results faster. This study proposes a

CONSIDERING ENGINEERING GEOLOGY INPUT FOR PROBABILISTIC FLOOD HAZARD ASSESSMENTS
Geological Society of America Abstracts with Programs, 2021ABSTRACT Probabilistic risk assessments were developed in the 1970s as consistent approaches to assessing public health protection by nuclear-facility safety measures. Risk-informed initiatives resulted in the characterization of processes that produce extreme events (hazards) independently from the detrimental effects of such events on ...

Hydrological hazard assessment: THE 2014–15 Malaysia floods
International Journal of Disaster Risk Reduction, 2017This paper intends to establish conceptual foundations on the identification of standards and metrics for assessing the impact of hydrological hazards. The economic evaluation of flood damage cost model (EFDC-Model) attempts to estimate the impact of water occurrence, movement, and distribution on GNP growth.
