▼ Urbanization leads to drastic changes in land cover, which has major effects on local hydrology. Recently documented urban flooding has highlighted the need for more research on the unique interplay between hydrometeorology and the built environment, so this dissertation explored three major components of the urban water cycle that affect the development and magnitude of flash floods: atmospheric contributors, hydrologic response, and land use/land cover characteristics. To explore the atmospheric component, quantitative analyses were performed on thermodynamic variables from forty urban flood events. Spatio-temporal hydroclimatological trends and characteristics associated with urban flooding events for several cities were examined to address the hydrologic response and land use/land cover aspect. Finally, the three components (atmospheric, hydrologic, and land use/land cover) were combined via an observational case study of a historic flood in Oklahoma City to identify what urban-atmospheric-hydrologic interactions played a role in the evolution of the event. Additionally, various observational networks, including the unique, intra-urban Oklahoma City Micronet, were examined to identify optimal observing methodology. Results showed that detailed assessments of the atmospheric and surface/subsurface conditions (from both a hydrologic and land use perspective) are crucial to obtain accurate assessments of the potential for, and resultant magnitude of, urban flash floods. When assessing the atmospheric conditions prior to a heavy rain event, the precipitable water (PW) anomaly with respect to the local PW climatology, as well as the warm cloud depth (WCD), MUCAPE, and wind shear are key. From a hydrologic and land use perspective, results illustrated that urban basins experienced a higher percentage of flood events during abnormally dry conditions and were more “flashy”. Finally, from an observational perspective, gage-biased radar mosaic QPE provided the best continuous representation of the rainfall distribution over the area but were not adequately able to capture all details of the observed distribution from the Oklahoma City Micronet, illustrating the need to include both in situ and remotely sensed observing networks for an improved characterization of urban rainfall.

▼ ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Flood attenuation controls are becoming a topic of interest and are more frequently being used within urban areas of South Africa, as local authorities bring into effect stormwater policies and legislation. Another reason for the interest is the increase of urban development, which increases the impervious area within a watershed, which in return increases the run-off. This could have detrimental effects on the morphology of rivers and streams due to erosion. Literature also points out that, due to effects of climate change, the future flow, for a return period corresponding to a similar pre-development period, could increase, and stormwater ponds will then be under designed. This scenario would increase the storage volume required for detention ponds which, due to spatial constrictions, would by then be difficult or impossible to increase. The importance of accurate calculation of future discharge from a multi-stage outlet thus becomes critical. Attenuation facilities in the past were designed to control only a single recurrence interval (RI) design storm, such as the 50-year RI storm event. However, various metropolitan municipalities now instruct developers to implement on-site flood control structures, which must be capable of controlling run-off for a full range of design flows. Previous research reports concluded that multi-stage outlet structures were more effective at mimicking the pre-development flow during a range of storm events than a single outlet structure. The aim of this research was to evaluate the hydraulic performance of a multi-stage outlet structure and to determine the optimal range of recurrence interval storms which the multi-stage outlet structure was capable of meeting while providing the pre-development flow rates. A 1:3 scaled physical model was constructed in order to verify that thee theoretical equations and design guidelines recommended in literature accurately calculate the flow through multi-stage outlet structures. Six different configurations of multi-stage outlet structures were tested in the hydraulic laboratory of Stellenbosch University to evaluate the control of discharge for a wider range of scenarios. The multi-stage outlet models were designed to control the flow to pre-development peaks for inland and coastal regions receiving either 400 mm, 700 mm or 1000 mm of mean annual precipitation. It became evident from the physical model test results that multi-stage outlets consisting of discharge devices sized to control four of the RI storms (2- , 10-, 50- and 100-year), were sufficient to control all six (2- , 5-, 10-, 20- 50- and 100-year) RI storms. Thus, individual control devices were not required to control the intermediate RI storms (5- and 20-year storms), as the 2- and 10-year devices would control the outflow at the corresponding 5- and 20-year water surface elevations. Thus, designing discharge control devices to control the 2- and 10-year recurrence interval storms would shorten the iterative design process of the multi-stage outlet structure.… Advisors/Committee Members: Bosman, Adele, Stellenbosch University.

▼ Shanghai is one of the numerous megacities worldwide that experience severe flood events triggered by torrential rainfall. To deal with the undesirable consequences of these events and mitigate the flood hazard, the research of flood reduction measures is necessary. In this effort, the hydrodynamic modelling is a useful tool. In this master thesis a 2D model was developed for the simulation of urban flood events in Jingan District in the downtown of Shanghai. The main objectives of the thesis were the production of the flood hazard maps for numerous rainfall events and the assessment of the proposed flood mitigation measures. Delft3D Flexible Mesh was used as a tool to produce the inundation maps. Also, several data were considered regarding the grid for the numerical calculation, the surface elevation, the local drainage system and the rainfall events. SOBEK was used for the set up and the preprocessing of the sewer system. For the simulations, data from three historical rainfall events were used: August 2005, August 1997 and September 2013 and five rainfall events with return periods of 1, 3, 5, 10 and 50 years were generated by using the Chicago hydrograph. For the validation of the model, the rainfall event of August 2005 was used. Although the validation of the model was not proven due to the simplifications that were made in the input data and the lack of data, the model showed that some processes can be simulated, and inundation maps can be produced. By comparing the results that occur with and without the inclusion of the drainage system, it was concluded that the local drainage system should be included in the analysis for the assessment of the flood hazard in an urban area, since its presence plays an important role in the flood reduction. The results showed that the maximum inundation depth can decrease by around 45%. As flood reduction measures, the creation of water storage areas and the increase of the drainage capacity were considered. The water storage areas covered around 10%, or less, of the block areas with available space, leading to a water depth reduction that depends on the location in the map. For the increase of the drainage capacity, the value of 1 m3/s was assigned in a single and in multiple locations in a specific area of investigation. The results showed a percentage of water depth reduction around 15.9% and 45.5%, respectively. For the same location the percentage of water depth reduction due to the water storage areas was 22.5%. Finally, uncertainties were introduced in the model due to the assumptions and the simplifications that were made in the input data. However, this model can work as a base for future researches to accomplish more realistic results, by improving the current model and adding more updated and precise data.

▼ Climate change induces the probability of occurring natural disasters; e.g. floods, Sea Level Rise, Green House Gases. Flood is considered one of the most dangerous phenomena that tremendously and dramatically threatening the human being and environment worldwide. Rapid urban growth, demographic explosion, and unplanned land uses have exacerbated the problem of urban flooding, particularly in the cities of China. In addition to that, the concept of flood risk management and adaptation measures and strategies are still missed in the cities’ development future plans. The main objective of this Ph.D. dissertation is to investigate the flood risk analysis and assessment based on flood simulation and adaptive strategies for flood event through two case studies of Changsha city in south-central China. In case study I, fluvial flooding was considered on mesoscale and an MCA-based approach was proposed to assess the integrated flood risk of Changsha central city. HEC-RAS 1-D model was used to simulation the inundation characteristics for hazard analysis based on four risk dimensions: economic, social, environmental, and infrastructural risk. For infrastructural dimension, apart for direct damage on road segments, network analysis method was combined with inundation information and macroscopic traffic simulation to evaluate the impact on traffic volume as well as a decrease of road service level. Closeness centrality weighted with a travel time of pre- and after- flood was compared in order to measure the impact on urban accessibility. Integrated risk values were calculated using various weighting criteria sets. Sobol' indices were used as a tool of spatially-explicit global Uncertainty Analysis and Sensitivity Analysis (UA/SA) for damage models. In case study II, an agent-based modeling approach was proposed to simulate the emergency pluvial flood event caused by a short-time rainstorm in local areas of cities aiming at developing an interactive flood emergency management system capable of interpreting the risk and reduction strategy of the pluvial flood. The simulation integrated an inundation model with microscopic traffic simulation. It also reveals that all agents can benefit significantly from both engineering measures and the only pedestrian obtain relatively more benefits from risk warning with high awareness. The method provided potentials in studies on the adaptive emergency management and risk reduction, help both decision-makers and stakeholders to acquire deeper and comprehensive understanding of the flood risk. This Ph.D. study has investigated holistic methods and models’ selection in flood risk assessment and management to overcome data deficiency and to achieve the integration of different data. The results of the first case study reveal that the integrated methods have proved to be able to improved flood risk analysis and assessment especially for indirect damage of infrastructural system with network features. The global UA/SA based on Sobol' method and visualization with maps enable to gain the… Advisors/Committee Members: Thinh, Nguyen Xuan (advisor), Schanze, Jochen (referee).

Les contours théoriques en hydrologie, hydraulique et les outils de calcul correspondants sont largement développés et utilisés dans le monde. Cependant en parallèle, des problématiques importantes surviennent pendant les crises sans pouvoir être résolues et des solutions développées peinent à être implémentées. En plus, le changement climatique ne va pas faciliter les choses. Pour noircir le tableau, les moyens économiques locaux en France ne vont pas augmenter pour aider les communes à s’attaquer au problème. L’objectif de cette thèse est de conduire une investigation des moyens à disposition pour améliorer notre connaissance locale des concepts en lien avec le pluvial pour permettre une modélisation efficiente. La méthodologie proposée est composée de trois étapes évolutives incluant : 1. Une analyse approfondie des données topographiques locales ; 2. L’évaluation des interactions entre les écoulements de surface et le souterrain ; 3.Une approche intégrée permettant de modéliser les inondations générées par la pluie en zone urbanisée. Les résultats de l’étape 1 montrent que la donnée topographique est essentielle pour la définition des chemins d’écoulement et impactent significativement les résultats de modélisation hydrauliques. Ceci conduit à l’étape 2 lors de laquelle on observe que les débordements provenant du réseau souterrain contribuent à l’inondation mais seulement en partie. Les volumes d’inondations générés par le ruissellement de surface devraient être inclus dans les modèles d’inondation. L’étape 3 présente une configuration possible de modèle intégré permettant de mieux représenter les processus réels en jeu.

Theoretical background about hydrology, hydraulics and computational tools and methods are widely developed and worldwide used. In the same time however, important issues during flood crisis are not solved and practical solutions take time to be implemented. On top of that, ongoing climatic change will not make things easier and intense events will increase in frequency. To worsen the picture, local economic means in France will not increase to help municipalities and local communities to tackle the issue. The objective of this thesis is to investigate on the available ways to improve our local knowledge of stormwater related concepts to allow an efficient modelling. The proposed methodology consists in a three-step-approach including: 1. A thorough analysis of local topography data; 2. The assessment of sewer-surface interactions; 3. An integrated approach to model pluvial flood in urban areas. The results of Step 1 show that topography data is essential in flow path definition and significantly impacts hydraulic modelling results. This leads to Step 2 where it is seen that sewer overflow is one aspect of urban flood issues but represents only part of flood sources. Overland flow generated by runoff should be included in flood models. Then Step 3 presents that integrated urban pluvial modelling is possible with existing tools and can represent the real processes better. This proposed…

Houston, TX is known for being flood prone. Recent disasters such as Hurricane Harvey (2017) severly damaged this city. Houston’s flooding problem is caused by urban sprawl, the flatness of the city and the lack of policy. The urban sprawl increases the amount of concrete and limits the city’s natural drainage, the flatness of the city means the water has nowhere to go, and the lack of policy causes a lack of stricter building regulations and zoning laws in regards to allowing developers to pave over crucial acres of land that could otherwise absorb rainwater. Recently the green light is given for the reroute project of the I–45 highway. The part of the I–45 between the districts of Midtown and Downtown will disappear. A new plan for this inbetween area is needed. In this report we will use an integrated approach to work from the biggest scale level of down towards the smallest scale level, combining the disciplines of urbanism, water mangement and infrastructure for the Midtown neighborhood of Houston. The research question for this project is: “How can we make Midtown a flood and climate resilient, vibrant part of Houston?” Which will lead to our wider I–45 area vision. We suggest to replace the I–45 with a lower level beach. The beach will function as a recreational public space and as a detention area for water in case of heavy rainfall. Around the beach there are mid rise buildings, and the beach will be connected to ditches that will be placed all over Midtown. Different measures of the 3 disciplines will be applied on 4 scales through passports containing guidelines based on the American grid system to realize a flood and climate resilient, vibrant Midtown. These sets of passports have great potential because they are also applicable in other neighborhood with the American grid system.

▼ While urban adaptation projects are designed to protect urban residents, their differentiated impacts on communities warrant critical scholarly attention. This dissertation contributes to deepening our understanding of why particular forms of adaptation prevail over others in different contexts and the implications for social and environmental justice by examining the planning, promotion and contestation of Jakarta’s planned Great Garuda Sea Wall (GGSW) project. Drawing on a critical discourse analysis of the project master plan and supporting engineering and financial reports and documents, press releases, policy documents and legislation, and news articles from local and national sources, as well as 60 in-depth interviews with consultants, bureaucrats and activists conducted during seven months of cumulative fieldwork in Jakarta and the Netherlands, I examine how different environmental imaginaries, situates forms of expertise, and discourses are mobilized by consultants, bureaucrats, and activists in debates concerning flood mitigation. Chapter 2 examines how the GGSW project retains its allure as the optimal solution for Jakarta, despite failing to address what is understood to be a primary cause of flooding: land subsidence. Drawing on the theoretical insights of science and technology studies, urban political ecology, and postcolonial urban theory, I contribute to understandings of the political and economic forces that drive large infrastructure projects. While Chapter Two illustrates the broader structural processes driving the project forward, Chapter Three documents the processes of articulation between Dutch consultants and Indonesian bureaucrats. I interrogate both the disruptive and productive elements of friction, as Dutch consultants seek to realize the GGSW project in Jakarta. Examining the GGSW project as a liminal project that constitutes neither a success nor a failure, I advance theoretical understandings of policy immobility and failure. Chapter 4 examines the contentious politics of flood mitigation in Jakarta more broadly through an analysis of the environmentalism of Forum Kampung Kota, a network of activists, architects and academics. By tracing its changing tactics, from one centered on appeals to social and environmental justice to what I call ‘insurgent expertise’, this chapter enriches understandings of localized and differently positioned forms of environmental politics.

▼ Dentre os elementos naturais o clima assume importância no que se refere à questão ambiental das cidades. A escolha pelo canal do Impacto Meteórico, dentre os subsistemas do Sistema Clima Urbano (SCU), justifica-se pelos constantes episódios de inundações na área urbana de São Sepé. Nesse contexto, o trabalho tem como objetivo relacionar os eventos de precipitação pluvial extrema com a ocorrência de inundações na zona urbana de São Sepé - RS, no período de 1980-2006. Para analisar a distribuição têmporo-espacial da precipitação na área urbana, bem como sua variação sazonal, optouse pela instalação de 4 pluviômetros, confeccionados de forma artesanal. A coleta dos dados do pluviômetro foi realizada no período de 1 ano escolhendo-se o mês mais representativo de cada estação do ano como amostra: primavera outubro de 2005; verão janeiro de 2006; outono abril de 2006; inverno julho de 2006. Através do cruzamento dos eventos pluviais extremos encontrados na análise dos dados meteorológicos com os episódios de inundações noticiados pela imprensa local foram selecionados sete episódios de maior impacto no espaço urbano: episódio 1 - 05 a 07/05/1984; episódio 2 - 21/05/1984; episódio 3 - 16/12/1994; episódio 4 - 27 e 28/12/1997; episódio 5 - 03/10/2002; episódio 6 - 19/02/2003; episódio 7 - 10 e 11/09/2005. Com base na análise dos episódios observou-se que volume mínimo de precipitação capaz de originar esse tipo de impacto é de 38 mm registrado em 24 horas e o volume máximo de precipitação registrado em 24 horas foi de 121,8 mm. Quanto à intensidade da precipitação verifica-se que as inundações só ocorrem quando as precipitações são moderadas a fortes ou de intensidade superior (forte e muito forte). As precipitações moderadas são susceptíveis de causar inundações apenas se acompanhadas de intensidades menores. As inundações puderam ser distribuídas em 3 grupos quanto à gênese do episódio que lhes deu origem: inundações relacionadas a passagens frontais rápidas; inundações relacionadas a frentes estacionárias e inundações relacionadas à atuação conjunta de instabilidades tropicais e frentes polares. Quanto às repercussões das inundações no espaço urbano, em todos os episódios analisados ocorreram danos tais como a invasão das casas pelas águas e moradores desabrigados, além de danos materiais como a perda total ou parcial dos imóveis e pontes e danificação das vias urbanas. Por fim procurou-se espacializar as áreas susceptíveis a inundações bem como aquelas áreas que podem vir a ser atingidas por inundações à medida que a urbanização se intensificar. As áreas mais susceptíveis às inundações são aquelas situadas às margens do Lajeado do Moinho e Rio São Sepé. A definição e caracterização dos episódios pluviais intensos, no que se refere à gênese, intensidade e volume de chuva, mesmo que de forma preliminar, poderão servir de base para prevenção desses impactos bem como para estudos posteriores, além de contribuir ao planejamento urbano do município no sentido de auxiliar na organização e utilização racional do espaço… Advisors/Committee Members: Emerson Galvani, Mauro Kumpfer Werlang, Maria da Graça Barros Sartori.

Este trabalho tem por objetivo geral estabelecer o zoneamento das áreas de risco a inundação da área urbana do município de Itaqui-RS, localizado as margens do rio Uruguai na região oeste do RS. Para atingir este objetivo foi organizado um inventário sobre as inundações ocorridas entre os anos de 1980 a 2010; identificou-se a porção da área urbana suscetível à inundação determinando o grau de perigo e os diferentes graus de vulnerabilidade através das características das ocupações; finalmente, a partir da correlação entre o grau de perigo e vulnerabilidade, foi determinado o grau de risco das áreas afetadas. Os procedimentos metodológicos envolvem quatro etapas: fundamentação teórica e levantamento de dados; análise das condições naturais e sociais do desastre; elaboração dos mapas base do perigo e da vulnerabilidade e; análise dos resultados, zoneamento e elaboração do mapa de risco. Os materiais utilizados foram carta topográfica, imagens de satélite, GPS, dados hidrológicos e documentos. Os resultados possibilitaram estimar dois graus de perigo, um relacionado as inundações recorrentes que definiram as áreas de alto perigo, outro relacionado a inundação extraordinária de 1983, que delimitou a área de baixo perigo. A vulnerabilidade foi estabelecia em três graus a partir do padrão construtivo das residências e infraestrutura pública. Por fim, foi possível estimar quatro graus de risco a partir da correlação dos dados. Os resultados deste trabalho podem vir a auxiliar outros trabalhos de pesquisa e permitir propostas de planejamento e ordenamento da infraestrutura urbana de Itaqui.

The aim of this study is to establish the location of the urban areas with risk of flood in Itaqui/RS, located at the edges of the Uruguai River in Western RS. To achieve this goal a data base of flooding was organized with all the floods that occurred between the years 1980 to 2010. It was identified the part of the urban area susceptible to flooding by determining the level of hazard and the different aspects of vulnerability through the characteristic of occupations; finally from the correlation between the aspect of hazard and vulnerability, was determined the aspect of risk in the affected areas. The methodological procedures involved four steps: Theoretical base and data collection, analysis of natural and social conditions of the disaster, preparation of fundamental maps of hazard and vulnerability; and analysis of results, zoning and preparation of the risk map. The materials used were topographic map, satellite images, GPS, hydrological data and documents. With the results it was possible to estimate two levels of hazard, one related to recurrent floods that have defined areas of high hazard, and the other related to the extraordinary flood of 1983, which delimited the area of low hazard. The vulnerability has been established in three aspects from the constructive pattern of houses and public infrastructure. To sum up, it was possible to estimate four levels of risk from the correlation of the data. The results of this work…

Research Doctorate - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

Humankind has witnessed an unprecedented increase in the frequency and scale of flood disasters in the last three decades. Floods have become a serious concern worldwide because of the fatalities they cause as well as the immense economic and ecological damage that ensues. While recognising these risks are not the product of physical systems alone, it is unlikely that they can be efficiently minimised by focusing on hazards (technical factors) alone without considering the social aspects of those affected. A review of previous studies has revealed few deals with the social perspectives of the root causes of flood vulnerability in Nigeria. This thesis contributes to the body of knowledge on this topic by introducing an Urban Political Ecology (UPE) conceptual lens to examine the root causes of inconsistent flood vulnerability in the metropolitan city of Ibadan, Nigeria. The UPE analytical framework offers a new dimension to flood vulnerability studies, uncovering inequalities and providing insight into how residents in three urban communities (Bere, Mokola and Basorun) experience different risks. The study proffers answers to five research questions: (i) Who is vulnerable to flood hazards in the study areas? (ii) How vulnerable are they to flood hazards in the three selected urban communities? (iii) What factors influence urban residents’ flood vulnerability in the three zones? (iv) How do these factors create different levels of flood vulnerability in the three zones? (v) What are the ways vulnerability can be minimised, and how can resilience to flood hazards be improved? The study embraced pragmatic worldview, employing a mixed-methods approach. Primary data was collected from a survey of households. The survey assessed, measured, and established social groups’ level of vulnerability through indicators, and statistical analysis of population data. Participatory focus groups with households were conducted to understand better how selected indicators and factors interacted to influence flood vulnerability and produce different vulnerabilities within the zones. In addition, experts were interviewed to consolidate earlier findings by providing insight into the underlying causes of flood vulnerability through the lens of UPE. This further demonstrated the roles of socio-political forces and institutional structures in creating unequal flood vulnerability. The quantitative Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) and Nvivo 10 qualitative software were used to facilitate data analysis. The findings of the study (i) show that typical urban residents in the study areas are vulnerable to flood hazards because of their unique exposure, lack of capacity to deal with flood events and lack of potential to recover from them. Furthermore, they have limited access to social and political resources. (ii) provide evidence of differential vulnerabilities to flooding in the three study sites. Bere community, a low-income and high-density urban settlement is the most…

The purpose of this thesis is to conduct research on increasing flood resilience and, albeit to a lesser extent, drought resilience of New Orleans, Louisiana, United States of America. Focusing on the Orleans Lakeside sub-basin, this project builds on previous work through a joint design-engineering approach. This project seeks to address two shortcomings of existing proposals such as the Greater New Orleans Urban Water Plan: consideration for extreme weather events in the design framework as well as focusing on the integration of technical adaptation measures with the built environment. Hence, the main research question answered in this report is “How can Orleans Lakeside be made more flood and drought resilient by integrating multi-layered resilience capacities of the built environment, whilst safeguarding consistent design of technical adaptation measures within the urban space?”. The development of a design framework and detailed design interventions follows from a synthesis of earlier proposals, supplemented with a vulnerability analysis that focuses on the different capacities of the built environment in dealing with weather events of various magnitudes. For this analysis, the threshold (preventing damage), coping (mitigating damage), recovery (recovering from damage) and adaptive (flexibility to change) capacities of the built environment are investigated. The multidisciplinary approach taken in this project culminates in an urban water management design for Orleans Lakeside which is focused on introducing open water in the urban environment. This design proposal offers a high potential of meeting the required water storage capacity, with the intention to reintroduce the lost identity of wetlands to the suburbs of New Orleans. Typological and urban design across scales aim to integrate water system elements into the urban fabric, and to merge a new water-based urban environment with traditional desired American neighborhood qualities.

La pratique de la planification urbaine reste un défi dans les villes d'Afrique sub-saharienne et l'occupation de l'espace urbain se fait en grande partie en déphasage avec les normes urbanistiques. L'analyse du contexte de production et d'occupation de l'espace urbain ainsi que des conséquences qui découlent d'une planification urbaine inconséquente permet de faire un lien entre les problèmes de développement et les risques d'aggravation des inondations.A Cotonou, le phénomène est plus qu'inquiétant. Les problèmes de planification se posent en termes d'occupation des zones impropres à l'habitat, de fragilité des surfaces bâties et de qualité des ouvrages d'assainissement. Les conditions d'insalubrité de l'habitat et la situation sanitaire des zones potentiellement inondables ainsi que la gestion de l'environnement sont autant de défis pour les autorités locales ; l'occupation anarchique de l'espace, la perte progressive de contrôle et de régulation de l'action publique étant des causes de cette situation.Les propositions formulées dans cette recherche sont relatives aux contraintes physiques, pluviométriques, climatologiques et aux stratégies d’adaptation des populations face aux inondations. Elles intègrent également l'amélioration de la gouvernance urbaine, l'assainissement urbain et la gestion de l'environnement construit.

The practice of urban planning remains a key challenge in Sub-Saharan Africa cities since the urban land use is out of phase with the urbanistic standards. The analysis of the context of urban space production and occupation as well as of the consequences that result from an inconsistent urban planning allows us to draw a link between development problems and the risks of aggravating flood situations. The phenomenon is more than worrisome in Cotonou. The planning problems can be presented in terms of occupation of land that are unsuitable for habitat, of vulnerability of inhabited areas and of quality of wastewater facilities. The unhygienic conditions of the habitat and the sanitary situation of potentially flood-prone areas as well as the environment management are among the numerous challenges for cities councils, which are caused by the anarchic occupation of land, the gradual loss of control and regulation by the public hands.The proposals made by this research are related to the physical and climatological constraints and to the strategies for adaptation of the communities to floods. They include besides urban governance improving, urban sanitation and built environment management.

In this additional thesis a 2D urban flood model in the downtown area of Shanghai was investigated. Therefore a numerical model of Delft3D flexible mesh (DFM) was used. Since the model was investigated from scratch, a lot of data analysis and pre-processing was required to have reasonable input data. As input data a surface elevation map, a map with roughness coefficients, the drainage capacity and the infiltration capacity was required. Furthermore data of two typhoon events was available, one event on September 13, 2013 and the other on August 8, 2012 which also was used as input data. For the model in DFM a rectangular grid with a resolution of 50 m was used. The same resolution was used for the input data. A simulation for both rainfall events was done and it was found that the locations with the most intense rainfall and the locations with the highest inundation depths agreed with each other. Furthermore it was found that the highest inundation depths occurred at the same time when the highest rainfall intensities occurred. For most locations the resulted inundation depths were smaller than 0.1 m but there were also several locations with higher inundation depths. Furthermore a sensitivity analysis for all input data was done. It was found that the roughness values had only very few influence on the inundation depths and it depends on the location if the depths increase or decrease with changed roughness values. A higher infiltration leaded to slightly smaller inundation depths, but most of the differences were smaller than 5 cm The highest influence on the inundation depths was found when the drainage capacity was changed. When no drainage system was available, the inundation depths almost doubled. Hence, inundation depths up to 1 m occurred. This can be explained by the fact, that the drainage of rainwater is one of the main functions of a sewer system which was completely neglected in this case. For Jingan district a more detailed unstructured grid was established. Therefore curvilinear grids for the roads and triangular grids between the roads were combined. It was found that this grid leaded to better results because of the more accurate flow directions.

▼ Urban flooding, frequently occurring in metropolitan areas, is one of the worst natural disasters worldwide that brings severe impacts. Albeit a large number of measures have been designed for urban flood control, the ineffective and inefficiency management of physical assets involved has greatly impeded their deployment, and the performance of these assets has already become one of the major determinant success factors for urban flood control. However, managing physical assets in urban flood control is extremely challenging as there are a huge amount of diverse physical assets involved, which are distributed throughout the city, owned by different agencies, and operated in diverse scenarios. This research proposes an integrated platform for the physical asset management in urban flood control to improve its management effectiveness and efficiency, and finally guarantee the success of urban flood control. Through analyzing the physical assets involved and their management scenarios, a cloud-based asset management platform is proposed, which could manage all the physical assets throughout the whole process of urban flood control. Besides, the concept of cloud asset is introduced, with its technical architecture and corresponding management services. Cloud asset enables automatic data collection and remote control of physical assets, and makes the management of them much more flexible. Furthermore, as a typical application built upon the cloud-based platform, the lifecycle management system for cloud asset is also developed. Finally, a case on emergency fleet management is conducted to verify how the proposed asset management platform could benefit typical management activities in urban flood control. Several major contributions can be summarized in the following. Firstly, this work innovatively proposes an asset-centric approach for managing the physical assets in urban flood control. Meanwhile, to implement this idea into reality, an integrated cloud-based asset management platform is proposed by integrating various technologies. The platform could provide management services for all the physical assets involved, and be flexible enough to work in diverse scenarios of urban flood control. Secondly, the concept of cloud asset is first introduced in this research. It is the key enabler to realize asset-centric management in urban flood control. Meanwhile, this concept makes it possible for physical assets to work in diverse scenarios and be shared among agencies. Besides, cloud asset shifts the management of physical asset from managing its physical status and functions to managing its capabilities and services in the cloud, which is much more flexible and efficient. Thirdly, a data-centric lifecycle management system for cloud asset is proposed. It could not only extract rich lifecycle information from complex connections among diverse physical assets, but also well handle the data collisions caused by multiple data sources and the instability of networks. Fourthly, based on the advantages of cloud asset and its…

▼ Flood generation became a common incident in Mekelle because of low vegetation cover and the vastly spreading land cover that accompanies development also results in less water being available for infiltration into the ground. Moreover, the increasingly constructing impervious structures facilitate more flood to be produce and overloading the conventional system of drainage in the city. Therefore, the existing flooding impacts on the conventional system studied and parameterized with help of Geographical information system (GIS) application. The paper also presents a diverse stormwater management technique that potentially could be implement in a case study area and evaluate their sustainability using Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) decision support tool. Five alternatives for stormwater management in the selected site evaluated according to 4 main criteria and 11 sub criteria using an Analytical Hierarchy Process type called MCDA model. The model, which applies quantitative scoring and experts invited to conduct the scoring and weighting elements of the method. Again, SWMM tool is applied to compute the rainfall-runoff simulations with in Subcatchments located in the city of Mekelle (Northern Ethiopia).Finally, comparisons takes place between different Hydrologic and hydraulic parameters produced by a design storm before and after installing SWMM-LID control components. The result showed that the best sustainable stormwater management solution after analysis of the Multi Criteria Analysis weightage tends to Rain garden (A2), and infiltration trench (A3) with overall aggregate weight of 0.489 and 0.232 respectively which employs main criteria such as technical, Environmental impact, social impact, and economic impact. Following weightage for the best management types a moderate-weight to Bio-cells (A1) scoring 0.190, 0.18 to Vegetation swale (A5) and finally lowest priority of 0.166 to Permeable pavement (A4). With installing of LID-controls that displace equal amount of area covered by impermeable ground, runoff on affected Subcatchments S80 & S81, high imperviousness, with initial flow rates of 3.16m 3 /s and 3 3.34 m /s respectively reduced and controlled. As recommendation, some relevant LID- components are allocated considering the suitability criteria of construction of different site in Mekelle city.

▼

The biggest city of Tanzania, Dar es Salaam, faces increasing flood risk, causing frequent sickness, loss of life, and widespread damage to property. Dar es Salaam is one of the fastest growing cities in the world. More than 70% of the residents live in informal settlements. Many of them are located in flood prone areas like river valleys and floodplains, which flood annually. Because of their limited coping capacity, residents are not able to recover from the impacts of this flooding. Due to the change of precipitation patterns, the flood risk is likely to increase in the future, putting even more people and assets at risk during more frequent and intense floods. This graduation project seeks to answer the main research question: How can urban form and landscape help to mitigate the effects of floods on citizens in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania? For areas with a high density of buildings, multifunctional courtyards are proposed. The existing building structure is strategically densified, and filled with new buildings to shape courtyards. Inside, a variety of interventions reduce the water run-off into the river valley, treat waste water and generate income via urban agriculture and aquaponic systems. For the river valley the construction of “chinampas” is being proposed, which creates a high retention capacity for storm water while enabling agricultural activities and connectivity across the river valley throughout the wet and dry seasons. At the edges of the valley, different interventions are located in order to reduce and clean run-off water before entering the valley. The combination of spatial interventions to reduce the flood risk with urban agriculture reduces the impacts and increases the ability of residents to deal with future hazards. The design proposals are supported by a implementation strategy and complimenting policies which reduce pollution, steer future urban development and introduce new renting models to host a higher diversity of lifestyles with different economic abilities.

▼ Curb inlets are sized and placed along a road to maintain a safe spread of water from the curb to reduce the chances of vehicle hydroplaning and flood hazards at assets near the roadway. The accepted curb inlet design standard is the Hydraulic Engineering Circular No.22 (HEC-22), which contains the FHWA's guidelines and recommended design procedures. However, the source and assumptions in the design equations are not well-documented in the HEC-22 report. This dissertation uses full-scale physical model and experimental data reported in the literature to evaluate the HEC-22 design approach and prepare updated guidance for the sizing of curb inlets. The studies presented herein provide key insights into the hydraulics of curb inlet flow. The first study provides a detailed derivation and discussion of the assumptions in HEC-22 equations for depressed and undepressed inlets, at 100% interception and bypass flow conditions. The derivation shows that the 100% interception equations from HEC-22 deviate from their supposed theoretical basis through significant rounding up of numerical coefficients in the equations and by introducing a parameter to model depressed inlets without providing any justification. The inconsistencies in the 100% interception equations led HEC-22 to deviate from theory once more by introducing a bias in the partial interception equation in an attempt to compensate for the bias in the 100% equations. The second study shows that HEC-22 significantly underestimates the 100% interception of undepressed inlets. Experimental data reported in the literature was used to provide a new design equation that reduced the relative error by a factor of 2 compared to HEC-22. The data was used as well to propose a modification to the partial interception equation and to show that Froude scaling in physical models of undepressed inlets only provides accurate results at smooth roadway surface with minimal effects of friction. In the third study, a full-scale model is modified and operated to assess the assumptions in HEC-22 equations for depressed inlets, such as the inaccurate assumption of a linear water profile along the inlet length. Data from this study was then combined with data from five other studies to provide a correction factor for the 100% interception as computed by HEC-22, and the correction factor reduced the RMSE by a factor of 3.75. A new approach was proposed as well for partial interception condition that has the advantage of providing better predictions and being structured in a way that facilitate checking and updating it using experimental data. The Fourth study modifies the depressed inlet model to test a 10 ft model of an inlet with a channel extension. The inlet was found to be robust towards flow restriction when installed on-grade. However, the capacity of the inlet extension when submerged regresses into only 23% of the expected capacity. Experimental data from this study and data reported in the literature was provided in the Appendix to facilitate future research on curb inlets… Advisors/Committee Members: Hodges, Ben R.

Este tese objetiva analisar sistemas complexos de drenagem urbana visando definir uma técnica de dimensionamento de obras de reservação. Nesta pesquisa, sistemas complexos de drenagem urbana são aqueles compostos por diversos reservatórios de detenção, distribuídos numa rede de canais formada por vários trechos. Este tipo de sistema é típico em megacidades. O dimensionamento das obras de reservação em redes complexas possui uma série de condicionantes, ou seja, ele é função de diversas variáveis, muitas delas de caráter aleatório. A principal delas é a chuva de projeto. Esta tese desenvolve uma técnica conjunta de simulação e de cenarização de chuvas com defasagem no tempo e no espaço para tratar a questão da variabilidade da precipitação de projeto. Do ponto de vista hidráulico, existem outras condicionantes para dimensionamento, dependendo do tipo de reservação adotada. Basicamente existem dois tipos de reservatórios para controle de cheias em cidades, os reservatórios on-line e os reservatórios off-line, cada um apresenta características próprias de desempenho que devem ser consideradas quando o sistema é dimensionado. Esta tese apresenta uma técnica de dimensionamento iterativa que permite compor um conjunto de reservatórios (on-line ou off-line) que atendem ao grau de proteção requerido para uma bacia urbana. Os métodos foram avaliados em bacias hipotéticas típicas de grandes cidades. Desse modo, uma série de variáveis foi contemplada, na tentativa de generalizar o método proposto. Os resultados mostraram a importância da cenarização da chuva de projeto. É praticamente inviável trabalhar hoje com as premissas clássicas para definir a chuva de projeto, a cenarização permite avaliar o desempenho do sistema segundo diferentes condições hidrológicas. Finalmente, ressalta-se que esta tese apresenta um enfoque novo de dimensionamento e que certamente irá requerer novas investigações e aperfeiçoamentos. Ela procura trazer à discussão a implementação de novos paradigmas para desenvolvimento de projetos no campo da drenagem urbana em grandes cidades.

This thesis aims to analyze urban drainage complex systems in order to define a technique for the design of detention ponds structures. In this study, Urban Drainage Complex Systems are those composed of several detention ponds, distributed in a network of channels formed by various reaches. This type of system is typical in megacities. The design of the reservation structures in complex networks has a number of constraints, in other words, it is a function of several variables, many of them are randomness. The main one is the design rainfall. This thesis develops a joint technical of simulation and the design rainfall scenario generation delayed in time and space to deal with the variability of design precipitation. From the hydrological point of view, there are other constraints for scaling, depending on the type of reservation adopted. There are basically two types of detention ponds for flood control in cities, on-line detention and off-line detention, each…
