Banaskantha Flood 2017: Flood Risk Assessment [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development, 2017
There is an increasing need for strategic global assessments of flood risks in current and future conditions. Natural hazards have caused severe consequences to the natural, modified and human systems in the past. These consequences seem to increase with time due to both the higher intensity of the natural phenomena and the higher value of elements at ...

Contemporary flood risk perceptions in England: Implications for flood risk management foresight [PDF]

open access: yesClimate Risk Management, 2021
Although England has been experiencing major floods dating back thousands of years,\ud the hazard is increasing in frequency and intensity, exacerbated by climate risks with\ud potentially serious consequences. Despite attempts to mitigate climate risks\ud (manifested via recurrent flooding) in line with international disaster risk reduction\ud agendas,

Applicability of the Goda–Takahashi Wave Load Formula for Vertical Slender Hydraulic Structures

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Vertical slender hydraulic structures such as sluices, navigation locks, or storm-surge barriers are often dynamically loaded by waves. For a safe and economic design, an accurate description of the wave loads is needed.

Impact of hydraulic model resolution and loss of life model modification on flood fatality risk estimation: Case study of the Bommelerwaard, The Netherlands

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, 2021
Flood simulations are important for flood (fatality) risk assessment. This article provides insight into the sensitivity of flood fatality risks to the model resolution of flood simulations and to several uncertain parameters in the loss of life model ...

Hydrodynamic system behaviour: its analysis and implications for flood risk management

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2016
Knowledge on the different components of flood risk has much improved over the last decades, but research which fully takes into account not only the interactions between those components but also between different areas in a catchment or delta is still ...
