Analysis of the impact and moderating effect of high-density development on urban flooding [PDF]
Heliyon, 2023 Although previous studies have posited that the high-density development of urban buildings and infrastructure contributes to urban flooding, empirical analyses and in-depth investigations into the interaction factors have remained limited.

Laboratory modelling of urban flooding. [PDF]
Sci 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.

How urban form impacts flooding
Nature Communications, 2023 Abstract Urbanization and climate change are contributing to severe flooding globally, damaging infrastructure, disrupting economies, and undermining human well-being. Approaches to make cities more resilient to floods are emerging, notably with the design of flood-resilient structures, but relatively little is known about the role of

Modeling the high-resolution dynamic exposure to flooding in a city region [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2019 Urban flooding exposure is generally investigated with the assumption of stationary disasters and disaster-hit bodies during an event, and thus it cannot satisfy the increasingly elaborate modeling and management of urban floods.
