“flood” Simulator

 

The functionalities within the trainer module allow to determine the type of flood to simulate:

· flood from streaming rainwater 

· flood from overflowing 

 

Once the flood type is chosen, the trainer determines the characteristics of the rains hitting the region:

· length of  rains

· extending location of  rains 

· intensity of  rains 

· intensity of  rivers flow

 

Entered beforehand in the simulator, a digital model divides the area in squares that indicate:

· the height of the ground on several points for each square

· the absorption coefficient of the ground per square,

· the retention coefficient of the ground per square,

· the quantity of water going from one square to the surrounding ones

 

When the simulation is launched, the flood expands over the region either from rainwater streaming from the heights toward the valleys or from rainwater raising the flow of rivers to the point of their overflowing.
