Flooding

Get the full picture on flooding

Predict the impact of flood events, identify risks and propose damage mitigation measures for climate adaptation and emergency response plans.

Features to address any flooding challenge

Get all the insights you need with MIKE+’s hydrologic and hydraulic models to assess potential flooding impacts on both the built and natural environment.

Model pluvial flooding in urban areas in 2D

To mitigate flood impacts, it is essential for cities to have a proper drainage network in place. By coupling MIKE+ SWMM and MIKE FM in MIKE+, users can run pluvial flooding simulations to analyse the interaction between a sewer network (minor drainage system) and overland flow (surface and major drainage system). Insight from such models helps to plan, evaluate and design new or existing urban drainage systems in a more integrated and realistic way.

Create a MIKE+ SWMM 2D model to:

  • Determine the location and extent of inundated areas
  • Target adaptation measures at specific locations with significant overflow and flooding
  • Consider hydrodynamic processes both at the surface and underground to reduce pollution

Create flexible flooding simulations

Combine your flood predictions with elevation data using the 2D Overland module to assess the impacts of extreme weather events on your community.

You can evaluate:

  • How levee breaches may impact floodplains
  • How floods can spread through cities
  • How storm surges can overflow sea defences
Gain maximum modelling flexibility with MIKE FM’s detailed and tailored meshes. You’ll be equipped to refine your results in large study areas to where your most important assets are located.

Future-proof against flooding

Mitigate the risks of sea level rise and consequential flooding by simulating and assessing which protective countermeasures to invest in.

MIKE+’s modelling capabilities can help you with almost any flooding application:

  • Flood mitigation and management
  • Flood risk analysis and flood hazard mapping
  • Flood contingency planning
  • Flood defence failure impact studies
  • Climate change assessments

Solve urban flooding issues with transversal tools

Analyse complex flooding issues by coupling our 2D Overland module with the MIKE1D PipeFlow module.

Used together, these modules can help you decide what to do with issues like:

  • Flooding due to cloudbursts, extreme rainfall, and climate change
  • Insufficient capacity in storm inlets
  • Insufficient pipe conveyance capacity and volume
  • System failures
  • Increased urbanisation, increased impervious surfaces and fast runoff components

Investigate coastal flooding issues by connecting to your MIKE 21/3 FM model

Modelling complex river systems feeding into coastal environments, estuarial domains or stratified lakes has never been easier.

Dynamically couple your 2D or 3D marine model with your river (and collection system network) in MIKE+ to understand coastal flooding issues and stratification patterns.

  • Accurately represent the flow of a river (or pipe) in a stratified water body
  • Understand the mixing of freshwater into a saline environment
  • Investigate the impact of storm surge and tidal rivers on your city’s flood risk

Perform a system-wide water quality evaluation

Investigate water quality processes and treatment options more holistically through the integration of MIKE ECO Lab flexible framework.

MIKE+ users now can:

  • Study water quality across collection system networks, rivers, coastal environments, lakes, and other surface water bodies
  • View results across MIKE1D Pipeflow, MIKE1D River and MIKE 21 FM
  • Configure existing water quality templates or create your own!

Urban - River - Flooding

The integrated water modelling platform

Powerful alone. Better together.

MIKE+ offers a full suite of integrated software solutions for water systems with a flexible and scalable model manager layer at its core. The MIKE+ platform allows you to plug and play with different modules to customise water management solutions. They’re powerful alone – but even better when used together.
Plus, some modules are transversal, so you can use them across your collection systems, rivers and flooding challenges. That’s the power of an integrated water modelling platform.
