  1. 1. The Influence of Infiltration Capacity and Antecedent Soil Moisture Conditions on Urban Pluvial Flooding

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Disa Barkefors; [2023]
    Keywords : Urban pluvial flood; 2D modelling; MIKE ; urban green area; soil moisture; Chicago Design Storm;

    Abstract : Urban pluvial floods occur during extreme rain events and both occurrence and magnitude of these floods are expected to increase. Preserving or constructing green areas in urban areas has been shown to mitigate and control these floods. READ MORE

  3. 2. Assessment of a sediment management solution in a reservoir with a sluicing technique using a HEC-RAS 2D model : Case study of Andakílsá river in west Iceland

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Emilía Sól Gudgeirsdóttir; [2023]
    Keywords : SediCon Sluicer; Andakílsá Hydropower Station; HEC-RAS 2D Sediment modelling; Sustainable sediment management; SediCon Sluicer; Andakílsá vattenkraftverk; HEC-RAS 2D Sediment Modellering; Hållbar sedimenthantering;

    Abstract : Sediment-related issues in reservoirs can often pose significant challenges to their operational effectiveness, sustainability, and environmental impact. Sustainable sediment management can help resolve these issues and extend the lifespan of dams. READ MORE

  4. 3. The influence of spatial variations in rain intensity for cloudburst modelling : a case study of the Gävle cloudburst

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Fanny Jeppsson Stahl; [2022]
    Keywords : Flood modelling; pluvial flooding; spatial variations in rain intensity; design storms; MIKE 21 Flow Model FM; 2D hydraulic modelling; Skyfallsmodellering; pluviala översvämningar; spatiala variationer i regnintensitet; typregn; MIKE 21 Flow Model FM;

    Abstract : With an intensification of heavy rain events in a changing climate and a rapid urbanization the risk for pluvial flooding is increasing in our societies. Pluvial flooding, which is formed when the rainfall rate exceeds the infiltration or drainage rate, can occur rapidly and cause great damages, large economic losses and possibly risk human lives.

  5. 4. Hydraulic modelling of the vulnerability for compounding high sea levels and high river discharge on the Swedish coastline

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Hannah Berk; [2020]
    Keywords : Coastal floods; combined compound flood events; fluvial floods; LISFLOOD-FP; hydraulic modelling; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Coastal floodplains are at risk for combined high discharge and sea level events. Consequences when they occur can be several magnitudes greater than the impact from any isolated event. READ MORE

  6. 5. 2D Effects of Geomorphology and Discharge on Hyporheic Exchange—a HEC-RAS Modelling Study

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Olivia Preston; [2020]
    Keywords : average hyporheic exchange velocity; water surface elevation; water surface concavity; hydrostatic head;

    Abstract : Hyporheic exchange is an ecologically and biogeochemically essential function of rivers and streams. One important driver of hydrostatic (hyporheic) exchange is gra- dients in the hydrostatic hydraulic head at the streambed. READ MORE
