Simulation of flooding due to embankment breaches by Delft3D Flexible Mesh: Case study of coastal area in Shanghai

As a low-lying city, Shanghai faces threats from typhoon and spring tide under the condition of climate change and land subsidence. With high water level at the toe, the sea embankment is likely to be overtopped and breached, finally resulting in inundation inland.  The objective of this research is to study climate change...
