Sediment transport (bedload and suspension) plays a relevant role in the morphological
response of river channels to large floods. Sediment load controls erosion and aggradation …

Characterizing flood-related hazards has mostly relied on deterministic approaches or,
occasionally, on particular uncertainty sources, resulting in fragmented approaches. To …

This study investigates the generation of spatially distributed roughness coefficient maps
based on image analysis and the extent to which those roughness coefficient values affect …

Abstract The National Water Center (NWC) implemented Height Above Nearest Drainage
(HAND) for nationwide flood mapping in the continental United States. Although having a …

Hydraulic models have a substantial role in the simulation of rivers due to their high
accuracy and low cost. One of the most practical hydraulic models is HEC-RAS capable of …

In recent years, flood disasters have intensified due to frequent extreme rainfall events
worldwide. Emergency evacuation is regard as the most important response action for …

Flooding is one of the most notorious natural disasters that adversely impact people's lives,
and damages their properties. To properly simulate the flood waves, two-dimensional …

Addressing flood risk management (FRM) from an integrated and multidimensional
perspective is crucial for effective flood management. Several studies advocate involving the …

Understanding the hydraulic resistance is vital for river engineering projects that include the
installation of in-stream infrastructure, such as bridge abutments, which directly impact flow …

Floods represent one of the most threatening risks for earthen architectural heritage.
Developing risk assessment tools is considered crucial to mitigate the risk and to protect …
