FLOOD RISK FOR THREE FLOOD DEFENSE WORKS: DIKES, DAMS AND RIPARIAN WETLANDS
Abstract
This paperwork makes an assessment of risk failure in defense works against flood located along and perpendicular on rivers , including natural riparian wetlands. Highlighting these areas allow us to ma ke complex studies about the different possibilities of flood mitigation, considering the surfaces and lowering the flood risk. Explanations about the “hazard - risk” scheme are made, with flood analyses in many case studies to propose a computation mode l for risk and management assessment accordingly with the risk and hazard maps. The paper details the risk and safety in three water resource management systems: the overall security degree for transversal systems is influenced by the number and arrangement of the elements; for safety amplification on longitudinal works, the effect of deriva tions and accumulations in the upstream over the discharge, and the prediction time are im portant; for the riparian wetlands the state at a given moment is determinant.
