The purpose of this study is to simulate inundation and evaluate the applicability of LISFLOOD model to the streams in South Korea by comparing with the inundation map using FLUMEN. The suggested levee breaching scenarios were applied to the LISFLOOD model, and the results obtained from scenarios were evaluated. The modeling results using LISFLOOD by appling the levee breaching scenarios showed 0.2% ~ 42% relative error with FLUMEN model in inundation area. But the relative error of maximum inundation area by overlapping all the flood analysis results from levee breaching scenarios such as the way making flood risk map was approximately 1.2% between two models. Meanwhile, LISFLOOD model was easy to construct input data, DEM as topographic data and discharge hydrograph as upper boundary conditions. And computing time of LISFLOOD was shorter than FLUMEN. Therefore LISFLOOD model can be applied usefully in the region that needs immediate inundation modeling.

Great loss of life and property has been occurred by the severe flood globally. In Korea, a flood inundation map is used as one of the non-structural measures for reducing flood damage, and various inundation models have been studied for flood inundation analysis. This study applies LiDAR data and LISFLOOD model for flood inundation analysis and discusses the the modeling results from levee breaching scenarios for evaluating the applicability of the model to stream inundation modeling. In the results of LISFLOOD modeling, maximum inundation area was similar to the inundation map by HEC-RAS model just less than 4%. The inundation area by each levee breaching scenario showed the difference from 0.2% to 6.5%. Inundation processes were different each other according to the position of levee breach point, and maximum inundation area and depth were changed by the flow direction of stream and flood plain. This study shows that LISFLOOD model can be applied properly to stream inundation analysis using various inundation scenarios.

LISFLOOD-FP model in which channel flows are resolved separately from the floodplain flows using either a kinematic or diffusive wave approximation has been used to analyze flooding behavior on the lower Mankyung River influenced by backwater. A calibration and validation process was applied using the previous flood events to assess the model performance. Sensitivity analysis was conducted for main calibrated parameters, such as Manning roughness coefficient and downstream boundary condition. Also, we examined the effect of warm-up for the initial conditions. The results show that the computed hydrograph is in good agreement with measured data on the study reach, even though it was a hydrologic kinematic wave model. The sensitive analysis show that the difference between the computed results may be greater depending on the used calibrated parameters and that the sufficient calibration/validation process against various flood events is necessary. If the flood inundation simulation is performed using the validated model, it is expected to be able to contribute about river planning and policy decision-making for flood damage reduction.

본 연구는 만경강을 대상으로 하도경사에 따라 하천을 상 중 하류로 구분하고, 빈도별 홍수량에 따라 홍수범람면적과 공간적 자료를 이용하여 하천공간을 확보해야 하는 지역과 홍수 방어 대책 수립이 필요한 지역을 선정하고자 한다. 이에 따라 홍수범람도 작성을 위해 만경강 유역을 무제부로 가정하고 CAESAR LISFLOOD 모형을 이용하여 홍수범람해석을 수행하였다. 하천의 상 중 하류별 범람해석 결과 상류하천 유역에서는 빈도별 홍수량이 커져도 홍수범람면적의 변화가 작았으며, 하류 하천의 경우 빈도별 홍수량이 커짐에 따라 범람면적이 크게 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 하천구간별에 따라 홍수범람해석 결과와 GIS 정보인 건물위치 및 도로망도 등을 활용하여 제내지 지역을 분할하고 분할된 지역에 대하여 하천 공간확보 가능지역과 홍수방어가 필요한 지역을 선정하였다. 분석결과 하류지역은 하천 공간확보가 가능한 후보 지역이 상대적으로 많고, 상류지역은 홍수방어가 필요한 지역이 상대적으로 많은 것으로 분석되었다. 향후 과거 하천 형태 및 습지 분포 위치 등 보다 다양한 GIS자료를 이용한 하천공간 확보 가능지역에 대하여 분석이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Extreme water events such as heavy rainfalls due to recent climate change are continually increasing and their scale has also shown an increasing trend. To overcome these natural disasters, this policy study suggests securing lateral river space as an effective method for extreme flood. To support the importance of restoration and expansion of lateral river space, Gumi upstream region of the Nakdong River basin was chosen as a target area and flood reduction analysis of the washland by using LISFLOOD model have been examined. The 500-year frequency flood was simulated for the estimation of possibly occurable flood level and it turns out that the secured lateral river space on the selected site effectively lowers about 0.53 m flood level and reduces the flood damage of the city on the lower reaches of the river. In addition, based on this result, multilateral river space securing plans were compared, and conservation easement and natural disaster insurance were suggested for sustainable and cost-effective alternatives. The costs of land purchase and conservation easement for securing the river space were also compared.

The purpose of this study is to develop a two-dimensional land surface flood analysis model based on uniform square grid using the governing equations except for the convective acceleration term in the momentum equation. Finite volume method and implicit method were applied to spatial and temporal discretization. In order to reduce the execution time of the model, parallel computation techniques using CPU were applied. To verify the developed model, the model was compared with the analytical solution and the behavior of the model was evaluated through numerical experiments in the virtual domain. In addition, inundation analyzes were performed at different spatial resolutions for the domestic Janghowon area and the Sebou river area in Morocco, and the results were compared with the analysis results using the CAESER-LISFLOOD (CLF) model. In model verification, simulation results were well matched with the analytical solution, and the flow analyses in the virtual domain were also evaluated to be reasonable. The results of inundation simulations in the Janghowon and the Sebou river area by this study and CLF model were similar with each other and for Janghowon area, the simulation result was also similar to the flooding area of flood hazard map. The different parts in the simulation results of this study and the CLF model were compared and evaluated for each case. The results of this study suggest that the model proposed in this study can simulate the flooding well in the floodplain. However, in case of flood analysis using the model presented in this study, the characteristics and limitations of the model by domain composition method, governing equation and numerical method should be fully considered.
