Enhancing the resilience to flooding induced by levee breaches in lowland areas: a methodology based on numerical modelling

<p>With the aim of improving resilience to flooding and increasing preparedness to face levee-breach-induced inundations, this paper presents a methodology for creating a wide database of numerically simulated flooding scenarios due to embankment failures, applicable to any lowland area protec...
