Details
A wide range of hydraulic modelling tools are available and due to scientific and technological progress, modelling algorithms and tools continue to evolve and improve through time. To aid Environment Agency decision making, we worked in partnership with Heriot Watt University to develop a set of standard benchmark tests for 2D hydraulic modelling software. These allowed us to assess the ability of available modelling packages to simulate flooding under different conditions and for a variety of flood risk management purposes.
