Urban Flood Scenario

Introduction
Flood Event in 1987:
• Sondrio was not flooded
• River channel was almost full (sediment aggradation)
• Peak discharge in river = 500 m3/ s
• Aggradation of up to 5 m at the Garibaldi Bridge
Garibaldi Bridge
• Return period = 60 years
• Flood duration = 60 hours

Modelling Validation “Idealised City”
Experimental Test Data vs 2D Modelling
Case Study: Town Sondrio
Flood Scenario:
• Peak discharge in river = 640 m3/s
• Return period = 100 years
Idealised City (Experimental Test)
• Université Catholique de Louvain (Belgium)
• Part of the European FLOODsite project
• Sudden transient flow of the dam-break wave
• A square city layout of 5 × 5 buildings aligned
with the approach of flow. Impervious blocks of
0.30 × 0.30 m; the streets were 0.10 m wide
• Validation of Modelling Procedure and
Parameters (Mesh size, Roughness,
Groundwater parameters)
• Validation of the Software (River2D)
• Uncertainties (Sensitivity Analyses in: Mesh
size, groundwater parameters and roughness)
What is Idealised City? Why We Used Idealised City Data?

Two strategies:
1) Fine mesh everywhere in the model
2) Coarse mesh in the model with refinement in building block position

Groundwater Parameters in River2D:
Storativity (related to the volume needed to saturate the ground)
Tranmissivity (related to permeability and the ability to convey discharge)
Model 1: Storativity = 1, Transmissivity = 1;
Model 2: Storativity = 0.001, Transmissivity = 1;
Model 3: Storativity = 1, Transmissivity = 0.1;
Model 4: Storativity = 0.001, Transmissivity = 0.1.

Idealised City (Conclusion)
Validation of River2D modelling procedure:
we can trust its results with approximation in the case study (Sondrio)
difference is the size of two models affecting the size of mesh
Mesh size:
the larger the mesh size, the more accurate the results there is a limit for mesh size
rational ratio between the mesh size and the size of blocks and streets
Groundwater parameters:
the smaller the values, the more compatible the results
no groundwater interaction in Idealised City (flume was sealed)
Roughness:
the lower the roughness, the higher the water velocity and the lower the water depth
expectable results

Flood Risk Assessment
Sondrio Damage Assessment Steps (Buildings)
Steps:
• The depth of flooding is determined using the
flood hazard map
• Simplified USACE damage curve
• Categorize buildings based on the number of
building storey and presence of basement. (Site visit, Google Street View, previous damage study
for 50 buildings in town Sondrio)
Estimate the potential damage
(Micro-Scale, Direct, Tangible)
According to a significant shift from hazard
centered perspective to understanding of risk
there is a need to quantify flood risk in terms
of damage.
Flood Risk Assessment
Sondrio Damage Assessment Map (Buildings)
Damage Levels:
• Very High (50 % ≤ Damage rate)
• High (40 % ≤ Damage rate < 50 %)
• Moderate (25 % ≤ Damage rate < 40 %)
• Low (Damage rate < 25 %)
• No expected damage (out of flood extension zone)

Scenario (Limitations, Suggestions)
Improve geometry of the model
Scenario of flood in the west part of the city
can be considered
Explore other kind of software packages
Detailed study of uncertainties (roughness,
groundwater interaction, upstream
hydrograph, inflow location, etc.)
Hazard Modelling: Damage Assessment:
Lack of reliable data
Finding appropriate damage model for case study
Limited transferability of damage curves designed
for one geographic area to another area
Uncertainty in damage curve estimation is high
Flood damage depends, in addition to building type
and water depth, on many other factors (building
age, material, foundation type…, flow velocity,
duration of inundation, contamination…)
Different urban patterns and building typologies
that are typical of Italy make it difficult to
generalize damage functions or to obtain large
enough data sets
