Analysis of flash flood scenarios in an urbanized catchment using a two-dimensional hydraulic model

In Italy, growing urbanization is leading to a higher risk of flooding of small water courses, especially in steep catchments of limited area, where severe flash flood events can occur. The assessment of flash flood hazard requires new modelling tools that can reproduce both the rainfall–runoff proc...
