 Abstract

Risk identification consists of defining the hazard, loss causing event E, probability P(E) of that event, perception Pe(E,P(E)) and consequences C(Pe) of that perception. Risk identification is followed by risk management, whose purpose is to mitigate the risks, for example by reducing P(E) or C(Pe) and providing suitable risk communication to the population at risk. Task 7 has focused in this approach for the safety issues of flood defences on the failure probability P(E). It has been subdivided into 4 activities: preliminary probability analyses of flood defences uncertainty analyses of all issues which are related to flood defences review and development of software codes for reliability calculation applicability of improved methods.
