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 …

We review the 45 available studies of urban flooding based on laboratory experiments. We
distinguish between the studies focusing on the flow in (i) a single street intersection,(ii) …

This paper presents a systematic analysis of the influence of nine urban characteristics
(distance between buildings, mean building size, building coverage, etc.) on surface flow in …

Accurate prediction of flood inundation processes in urban areas is challenging, due to the
complexity of street layouts and the variety of infrastructures. In this study, based on a …

The specific flood volume is an important criterion for assessing the performance of sewage
networks. It has been shown that its value is greatly influenced by the layout of the sewers in …

The accurate modelling of urban flooding constitutes an integral part of flood risk
assessment and management in residential and industrial areas. Interactions between …

Accurately quantifying the capacity of sewer inlets (such as manhole lids and gullies) to
transfer water is important for many hydraulic flood modelling tools. The large range of inlet …

Modelling urban inundation and its associated health implications is numerous in its many
applications. Flood modelling research contains a broad wealth of material, and microbial …

The accurate characterization of flow from urban surfaces to sewer/stormwater systems is
important for urban drainage design and flood modeling/risk identification. However, the …

Floods in urban areas which feature interactions between piped and surface networks are
hydraulically complex. Further, obtaining in situ calibration data, although necessary for …
