A rapid flood inundation model for urban flood analyses. [PDF]

open access: yesMethodsX, 2023
An efficient inundation model is required for flood early warning systems in urban areas. A 2D flood model uses a governing shallow water equation, and this model is computationally expensive despite benefiting from parallel computing techniques. As an alternative to conventional flood models, cellular automata (CA) and DEM-based models (DBMs) have ...

Laboratory modelling of urban flooding

open access: yesScientific Data, 2022
AbstractThis paper presents two datasets obtained from laboratory experiments of urban flooding in a street network performed at the University of Liège. The experimental model represents a part of a synthetic urban district that consists of three inlets, three outlets and several three- and four- branches crossroads.
