1. Estimation of flood risk and cost-effective mitigations : A case study in Tierp
Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknikSammanfattning : Climate change is predicted to alter the rainfall patterns in the future, and extreme rain events with large rainfall volumes will become more frequent and intense which increases the flood risk. A clear trend can be seen, where more and more people decide to relocate from rural to urban areas. LÄS MER
2. How variations of the duration and time to peak of the Chicago Design Storm affect the hydraulic response, as well as the areas contributing to peak runoff, of a synthetic urban catchment area
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapsläraSammanfattning : With an expanding urbanization in the world, and thus the expansion of impermeable surfaces, the risk of pluvial floods is an increasing factor that needs to be considered. This, in combination with increasing rain intensities and frequency of rain events indicates a problem both today and for the future. LÄS MER
3. The influence of spatial variations in rain intensity for cloudburst modelling : a case study of the Gävle cloudburst
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : With an intensification of heavy rain events in a changing climate and a rapid urbanization the risk for pluvial flooding is increasing in our societies. Pluvial flooding, which is formed when the rainfall rate exceeds the infiltration or drainage rate, can occur rapidly and cause great damages, large economic losses and possibly risk human lives.

4. Sensitivity analysis of a generic urban flow model : 2D modelling with empirical hyetographs and CDS rain
Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknikSammanfattning : Severe flooding events in recent years have underlined the importance of accurate hydrological modelling in urban areas. There are many important parameters relating to both the rainfall distribution and properties of the land on which the rain falls that controls the impacts of the rain event. LÄS MER
5. Developing a Rainfall-Runoff Routing Model using Spatially Distributed Travel Times : Modelling a Cloudburst Event in an Urban Catchment
Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknikSammanfattning : The future holds challenges for urban areas when it comes to handling pluvial floodings, occurring when the rainfall intensity exceeds both the man-made and natural infiltration and drainage capacity. To gain understanding of the effects and needed measures, tools for modelling the urban response to events such as cloudbursts are needed. LÄS MER
