Tsunami generation by paddle motion and its interaction with a beach: Lagrangian modelling and experiment [PDF]

, 2013
A 2D Lagrangian numerical wave model is presented and validated against a set of physical wave-flume experiments on interaction of tsunami waves with a sloping beach. An iterative methodology is proposed and applied for experimental generation of tsunami-

Data Resolution and Model Complexity in Pluvial Flood Risk Assessment: Insights and Trade‐Offs

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The increasing severity and frequency of urban pluvial floods has prompted numerous research studies on pluvial flood risk assessment. However, the literature reveals significant variability in the data resolutions and model types employed.

Experimental Update of the Overtopping Model Used for the Wave Dragon Wave Energy Converter

Energies, 2013
An overtopping model specifically suited for Wave Dragon is needed in order to improve the reliability of its performance estimates. The model shall be comprehensive of all relevant physical processes that affect overtopping and flexible to adapt to any ...

Comparative Effectiveness and Future Viability of Flood Control Adaptation Measures Under a Changing Climate and a Declining Population

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Adaptation measures play a crucial role in mitigating the increasing severity of flood disasters driven by climate change. While various strategies are implemented globally, their geographical characteristics and long‐term effectiveness remain uncertain.

From Forecast to Action: Using Flood Impact Storylines to Optimize Mobile Levee Deployment and Emergency Response Strategies

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Preparing for unprecedented natural hazard events is challenging because the lack of records and experience makes it impossible to know how such events will unfold. Repeated record‐breaking floods in central Europe have increased awareness of the need for proactive planning beyond observed extremes.

Adapting to climate change: the self-learning dike [PDF]

, 2007
A problem with the current probabilistic flood prevention strategy in the Netherlands is that it builds on knowledge about the probability distributions for extreme discharges, which are subject to considerable uncertainties due to limited peak discharge

Partial Entrance Restriction as a Potential Tidal Flood Mitigation Strategy in a Large Urban Estuary

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Tidal flooding in estuaries is expected to worsen as sea‐level rise (SLR) continues to accelerate and increases storm surge height. Conventional structural defences are often unsustainable, while nature‐based solutions like managed realignment require extensive land to be repurposed.

Computational Study of Overtopping Phenomenon over Cylindrical Structures Including Mitigation Structures

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Wave overtopping occurring in offshore wind renewable energy structures such as tension leg platforms (TLPs) or semi-submersible platforms is a phenomenon that is worth studying and preventing in order to extend the remaining useful life of the ...

Influence of the Uncertainty in the Dam‐Breach Hydrograph on the Flood Hazard Assessment in a Valley Area

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The reliability of flood event simulations is a crucial aspect in terms of saving lives. The worst flood scenarios derive from possible dam failures. For earthen dams, the breaching mechanism, triggered by overtopping or piping, is affected by several modelling uncertainties, which propagate downstream and may influence flood hazard mapping ...
