Urbanisation is an irreversible trend as a result of social and economic development. Urban
areas, with high concentration of population, key infrastructure, and businesses, are …

This review provides a synthesis of advances in our understanding of urban flood processes
and their modelling over the last four years (2018–2021). Four aspects are covered …

High accuracy models are required for informed decision making in urban flood
management. This paper develops a new holistic framework for using information collected …

To achieve fast flood modelling for large-scale problems, a two-dimensional cellular
automata based model was developed. This model employs simple transition rules and a …

Low-lying coastal cities are vulnerable to flooding under the combined impact of storm tide
and heavy rainfall. While storm tide or heavy rainfall alone is able to directly cause …

All urban drainage networks are designed to manage a maximum rainfall. This situation
implies an accepted flood risk for any greater rainfall event. This risk is often underestimated …

This study proposes a modelling framework of integrated one-dimensional (1D) and two-
dimensional (2D) hydrodynamic modelling to evaluate the effectiveness of sponge city …

In this study, we developed a novel approach to simulate dynamic flow interactions between
storm sewers and overland surface for different land covers in urban areas. The proposed …

New survey techniques provide a large amount of high‐resolution data, which can be
extremely precious for flood inundation modeling. Such data availability raises the issue as …

Urban flooding has become a global issue due to climate change, urbanization and
limitation in the capacity of urban drainage infrastructures. To tackle the growing threats, it is …
