Deskripsi

Flood is a serious challenge that increasingly produce immense economical and ecological damages in worldwide. Flood simulation is gradually becoming a central focus of the hydrology in recent years. It is worthwhile to combine flood simulation with flood damage to infrastructure. The purpose of this study is to develop an approach for better urabn flood simulation at different return periods and assess the damage of flood to infrastructures in different return period. The approach is organized into four parts: design rainstorm event simulation, runoff simulation, flood inundation simulation and submerged infrastructures extraction. Base on the flood simulation, we draw the flood inundation map of Xuanwu-Qinhuai-Jianye-Gulou-Yuhuatai (XQJGY) region. Results indicated that the transportation infrastructures suffer the largest proportion of flood damage. This study simulates the inundated infrastructure at different return periods, provides a theoretical support for flood risk management.
