Course on Urban flooding

From June 25th to 26th, Prof. Emmanuel Mignot is coming to Politecnico di Torino-DIATI to deliver the 2-day course in "Urban flooding" on the following topics:

  • Part 1: Definition: Hydrological regimes and urban flooding
  • Part 2: Typology of events: Where does the water come from?
  • Part 3: The New Paths of Water: Where does the water go?
  • Part 4: Flow characteristics: How does the water flow?
  • Part 5: Experimental Flow Modeling
  • Part 6: Numerical simulation of flood events
  • Part 7: Associated risks (criteria, maps, prevention, evacuation, communication)
  • Part 8: Resilience of cities to floods
The lessons are taking place in classroom Bibolini (DIATI 3, ground floor):
  • June 25th: 9:00-13:00
  • June 26th: 9:00-13:00
Emmanuel Mignot is an associate professor in Environmental hydrodynamics, with a mainly experimental approach, at INSA Lyon (France).
His research topics mainly cover the river ecology, supercritical open-channel flows and urban flooding. Concerning the urban flood topics, he collaborates with several European universities, trying to set up a complementary research community.
