Developing an initial understanding of the problem
• Flood mechanisms and interactions between different urban drainage systems;
• Scale of the flooding (e.g. localised, town‐wide or river catchment
wide);
• Frequency of the flooding;• Consequence of the flooding (e.g. degree of
nuisance, cost).• Basis of modelling is an extremely accurate
urban surface DEM/DTM

• The research challenge is to develop a generalised tool to deal with the interactions of any above
ground flows and their interaction with the below ground drainage system

in and out of the sewer system and subsequent overland flow
• 1D sewer network model prior to flood
• Sewer model has to be coupled with overland flow model when
flooding occurs.
• 1D/1D or 1D/2D

DEM/DTM requires very detailed topography of catchment surface – grid resolution 1m x 1m, vertical accuracy 50mm. Need to distinguish cover types and infiltration capacity –
runoff. Need exact position of gulleys
and manholes, kerb heights,
drop kerbs, walls, fences, permeable structures, etc

FRMRC
• FRMRC has developed new urban interactive model
• Models trialled in 3 UKWIR funded case studies
• These have highlighted the need for a joint 1D/1D and 1D/2D approaches
• The detail of the catchment
surface is the critical factor and enhanced DEM’s
are the way forward
