Hydraulic and impact analysis is performed through the OpenMI composition of four individual models: MASCARET, an integrated suite of solvers for use in the field of free surface flow, Rapid Flow Spreading Model (RFSM), a simple overland flooding tool, Property Damage, an impact evaluation tool and Spill Calculator, an auxiliary tool. The models work as one single composition run through the DRIHM portal. The composition was put together using the Fluid Earth tools and is available in the DRIHM e-infrastructure as pre-configured virtual machine running the OpenMI composition.
The HBV model (Bergström, 1976, 1992) is a rainfall-runoff model, which includes conceptual numerical descriptions of hydrological processes at the catchment scale. HBV can be used as a semi-distributed model by dividing the catchment into subbasins. Each subbasin is then divided into zones according to altitude, lake area and vegetation. The model is normally run on daily values of rainfall and air temperature, and daily or monthly estimates of potential evaporation.
TELEMAC-MASCARET is an integrated suite of solvers for use in the field of free-surface flow. Having been used in the context of many studies throughout the world, it has become one of the major standards in its field.
