[HTML][HTML] Performances of the new HEC-RAS version 5 for 2-D hydrodynamic-based rainfall-runoff simulations at basin scale: Comparison with a state-of-the art model

P Costabile, C Costanzo, D Ferraro, F Macchione… - Water, 2020 - mdpi.com
The Hydrologic Engineering Centre-River Analysis System (HEC-RAS), developed by the
US Army Corps of Engineers, is one of the most known, analyzed and used model for flood …

A storm event watershed model for surface runoff based on 2D fully dynamic wave equations

P Costabile, C Costanzo… - Hydrological Processes, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
The main purpose of this work concerns the development and testing of an overland flow
model based on the two‐dimensional fully dynamic shallow water equations. Three key aspects…

Is local flood hazard assessment in urban areas significantly influenced by the physical complexity of the hydrodynamic inundation model?

P Costabile, C Costanzo, G De Lorenzo… - Journal of Hydrology, 2020 - Elsevier
Flood hazard in urban areas is usually assessed by the estimations of parameters like flood
extent, water depths, flow velocities and other related quantities. These hydrodynamic …

Is HEC-RAS 2D accurate enough for storm-event hazard assessment? Lessons learnt from a benchmarking study based on rain-on-grid modelling

P Costabile, C Costanzo, D Ferraro, P Barca - Journal of Hydrology, 2021 - Elsevier
Rain-on-Grid (RoG) modelling is an increasingly popular approach within the storm risk
management, in which the hydrological and hydrodynamic flood processes are modelled …
