A practical methodology to perform global sensitivity analysis for 2D hydrodynamic computationally intensive simulations

Sensitivity analysis is a commonly used technique in hydrological modeling for different purposes, including identifying the influential parameters and ranking them. This paper proposes a simplified sensitivity analysis approach by applying the Taguchi design and the ANOVA technique to 2D hydrodynamic flood simulations, which are computationally intensive. This approach offers an effective and practical way to rank the influencing parameters, quantify the contribution of each parameter to the variability of the outputs, and investigate the possible interaction between the input parameters. A number of 2D flood simulations have been carried out using the proposed combinations by Taguchi (L27…

Uncertainty analysis of 100-year flood maps under climate change scenarios

Floods are natural disastrous hazards that throughout history have had and still have major adverse impacts on people’s life, economy, and the environment. One of the useful tools for flood management are flood maps, which are developed to identify flood prone areas and can be used by insurance companies, local authorities and land planners for rescue and taking proper actions against flood hazards. Developing flood maps is often carried out by flood inundation modeling tools such as 2D hydrodynamic models. However, often flood maps are generated using a single deterministic model outcome without considering the uncertainty that arises from different sources and propagates through the model…
