  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. Evaluating the Bluespot model with the August 2021 flood in Gävle, Sweden

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Author : Oskar Björklund; [2023]
    Keywords : Bluespot model; Urban Pluvial Flood Model; Fill Spill Merge Model; Gävle Flood 2021.;

    Abstract : Floods are one of the most common types of natural disasters. They annually affect vast amounts of people and cause severe economic losses. While fluvial, coastal, and flash floods are well studied, pluvial floods (rain related) have received modest attention from researchers and decision-makers in comparison. READ MORE

  4. 3. The influence of infiltration and rain intensity on an urban pluvial flood model : A case study of a catchment in Malmö municipality

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Emma van Heek; Ellen Persson; [2023]
    Keywords : Urban pluvial flooding; hydraulic model; type event; infiltration; runoff coefficient; Urban pluvial översvämning; hydraulisk modell; typ-regn; infiltration; avrinningskoefficient;

    Abstract : Urban pluvial floods have become more and more common in Europe. These floods have resulted in high costs for society, increasing the interest in conducting hydraulic flood models. This in order to prepare and minimise the consequences of these flood events. READ MORE

  5. 4. How variations of the duration and time to peak of the Chicago Design Storm affect the hydraulic response, as well as the areas contributing to peak runoff, of a synthetic urban catchment area

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

    Author : Oskar Ahlstedt; [2022]
    Keywords : Avrinningsområde; översvämningsmodellering; peak-bidragande område; hydrograf; hyetograf; MIKE 21; regnintensitet; CDS-regn; Chicago Design Storm;

    Abstract : With an expanding urbanization in the world, and thus the expansion of impermeable surfaces, the risk of pluvial floods is an increasing factor that needs to be considered. This, in combination with increasing rain intensities and frequency of rain events indicates a problem both today and for the future. READ MORE

  6. 5. Flood modelling in urban areas : A comparative study of MIKE 21 and SCALGO Live

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Evelina Andersson; [2021]
    Keywords : SCALGO Live; MIKE 21; Stormwater Model; Flood Model; Cloudburst; Inundation; Comparative;

    Abstract : Pluvial flooding originating from extreme rainfall is problematic and an increasing issue in Sweden. Higher requirements on adapting cities in urban areas to these challenges have been placed on both municipalities and the county administration. Thus, an increased need for water modelling, both in existing and planned areas have emerged. READ MORE
