Floods in built-up areas are among the most catastrophic natural hazards mainly due to the high value properties existing in these areas. The most vulnerable areas are the riverine areas with mild terrain which are often encountered in the coastal zone. Due to the mild terrain and the...

In this paper, a new powerful numerical hydrodynamic in-house model is presented and tested. The model simulates flood routing in two dimensions. It is based on the solution of Shallow Water Equations using the Finite Difference Method according to the explicit McCormack numerical scheme which...
