This paper proposes a new rapid simplified inundation model (NRSIM) for flood inundation caused by rainstorms in an urban setting that can simulate the urban rainstorm inundation extent and depth in a data-scarce area. Drainage basins delineated from a fl... see more

To evaluate tsunami hazards with strong locality in urban areas, this study developed a novel tsunami inundation model based on nonlinear shallow water wave equations and a porous body model (PBM). By applying a kinematic boundary condition that includes ... see more

The flooding of urbanized areas constitutes a major hazard to populations and infrastructure. Flood flows during urban inundations have been studied only recently and the real-life impact of fluid flows on individuals is not well understood. The stability... see more

Rainfall with varied temporal distribution is an essential input to urban flood models. In this study, a 60-min design rainstorm with different return periods for the urban area of Yangpu District, Shanghai, China was derived. The design of areal rainfall... see more

The risks of abnormal temperatures and rainfall on urban ecosystems have been assessed. According to urban ecosystems study results, the scale of anthropogenic changes in the functioning of green zones, urban and suburban regional landscape parks is demon... see more

O intenso crescimento urbano tem um reflexo considerável sobre o aumento da impermeabilização do solo, consequentemente alterando as condições naturais do ciclo hidrológico, assim elevando a parcela de escoamento superficial, e com isso favorecendo as oco... see more

The main objective of this study is the simulation of the floods in urban zone by applying a calculation code solving the two-dimensional Saint Venant equations. These equations form a set of three coupled equations, not linear and hyperbolic which are so... see more

Two-dimensional hydraulic modeling is fundamental to simulate flood events in urban area. Key factors to reach optimal results are detailed information about domain geometry and utility of hydrodynamic models to integrate the full or simplified Saint Vena... see more

Failure of drainage systems leads to urban flooding; therefore, structural measures such as the installation of additional drainage facilities, including pump stations and detention reservoirs, have been adopted in the past to prevent and mitigate urban f... see more
