Flood inundation assessment for the Hanoi Central Area, Vietnam under historical and extreme rainfall conditions
Abstract Flash floods have long been common in Asian cities, with recent increases in urbanization and extreme rainfall driving increasingly severe and frequent events. Floods in urban areas cause significant damage to infrastructure, communities and the environment. Numerical modelling of flood inu...
