This work presents a methodology for analyzing the influence of urbanization in a long-term
approach on the number of floods in an urban catchment. The mathematical model …

Breach due to overtopping is the most common failure mode of earthen levees. Historic
records and future projections consistently show exacerbating patterns in the frequency and …

Up to now, it has been common practice to use technical flood protection measures such as
dikes and retention basins to secure the prosperity and well‐being of societies that are …

One of the key parameters constituting the basis for the operational assessment of
stormwater systems is the annual number of storm overflows. Since uncontrolled overflows …

One of the key parameters constituting the basis for the operational assessment of

This study investigated the importance of rainfall and various geomorphological and
geometrical factors to the vulnerability of earthen levees to slump slides. The study was …

This study introduces a method for assessing the annual failure rate of levees based on
information from historical floods, while also considering the return period of these past …

The paper presents an attempt to develop a probabilistic model for predicting an annual
number of storm overflow discharges. Forecasting the occurrence of an overflow discharge …

Flood risk of levee protected areas stems from the possibility of levee failure due to
overtopping, breaching or uncontrolled seepage. In most cases, levee breaching leads to …

In the paper, a comparison of prediction results concerning the annual number of discharges
of stormwater from the drainage system due to stormwater overflows is depicted. The …
