Assessing the impact of uncertainty on flood risk estimates with reliability analysis using 1-D and 2-D hydraulic models
This paper addresses the use of reliability techniques such as Rosenblueth's Point-Estimate Method (PEM) as a practical alternative to more precise Monte Carlo approaches to get estimates of the mean and variance of uncertain flood parameters water depth and velocity. These parameters define th...
