Floods are probably the most hazardous global natural event as well as the main cause of human losses and economic damage. They are often hard to predict, but their consequences may be reduced by taking the right precautions. In this sense, hydraulic inf...

Extreme rainfall events cause immense damage in cities where drainage networks are nonexistent or deficient and thus unable to transport rainwater. Infrastructure adaptations can reduce flooding and help the population avoid the associated negative conse...

Polders are low-lying areas located in deltas, surrounded by embankments to prevent flooding (river or tidal floods). They rely on pumping systems to remove water from the inner rivers (artificial rivers inside the polder area) to the outer rivers, espec...

Currently, most of the studies using optimization algorithms to mitigate the urban flooding problem have no more than three optimization objectives, and few of them take the operation status of the traditional drainage system as one of the optimization o...
