This report is the final document related to the second year, second activity whose title is: “Preliminary results obtained by using the 2D numerical propagation model and sensitivity analysis with respect to the parameters”.
The purpose of the collaboration between LAMPIT (Department of Soil Defence, University of Calabria) and CMCC is to develop an hydrometeorological chain in order to obtain a reliable tool in the context of flood evolution prediction able to provide quantitative information of practical importance within the civil protection activities.
The LAMPIT contribution to the project concerns the mathematical description of both the generation and propagation of flood events at basin scale. The work here presented, carried out in close cooperation with dr. Pasquale Schiano and CIRA researchers (dr. Paola Mercogliano and dr. Gabriella Ceci), has been organised as follows:
- Analysis of the models proposed in the technical literature with particular reference to the kinematic and diffusive approximations.
- Collection and description of numerical tests usually used in the scientific context for the validation of the numerical models.
- Development and implementation of 2D models.
- Validation of the models developed by LAMPIT through numerical tests.
