This book features a collection of extended papers based on
presentations given at the SimHydro 2019 conference, held in Sophia
Antipolis in June 2019 with the support of French Hydrotechnic
Society (SHF), focusing on "Which models for extreme situations and
crisis management?" Hydraulics and related disciplines are
frequently applied in extreme situations that need to be understood
accurately before implementing actions and defining appropriate
mitigation measures. However, in such situations currently used
models may be partly irrelevant due to factors like the new
physical phenomena involved, the scale of the processes, and the
hypothesis included in the different numerical tools. The
availability of computational resources and new capacities like GPU
offers modellers the opportunity to explore various approaches to
provide information for decision-makers. At the same time, the
topic of crisis management has sparked interest from stakeholders
who need to share a common understanding of a situation.
Hydroinfomatics tools can provide essential information in crises;
however, the design and integration of models in decision-support
systems require further development and the engagement of various
communities, such as first responders. In this context,
methodologies, guidelines and standards are more and more in demand
in order to ensure that the systems developed are efficient and
sustainable. Exploring both the limitations and performance of
current models, this book presents the latest developments based on
new numerical schemes, high-performance computing, multiphysics and
multiscale methods, as well as better integration of field-scale
model data. As such, it will appeal to practitioners, stakeholders,
researchers and engineers active in this field.
