Overview

This framework assesses structural damage from flooding events, integrating hydraulic and structural analyses, highlighting risk mitigation strategies.

Key Points

  • The aim is to develop a multiscale framework to predict structural damage due to flooding and evaluate risks effectively.
  • Developed a two-scale numerical framework using finite element modeling
  • Utilized shallow water equations for flood propagation simulation
  • Assessed structural responses using a damage-plasticity model
  • Applied the framework to a real structure in Cosenza, Italy
  • Successfully captured the interactions between flood dynamics and structural integrity
  • Predicted stiffness degradation and damage patterns in critical structural areas
  • Demonstrated the framework's effectiveness in risk evaluation and scenario analysis
