Digues maritimes et fluviales de protection contre les submersions - 2e colloque national - Digues 2013
Author: ROYET Paul
Publisher: Lavoisier
ISBN: 2746295369
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 728
Book Description
Au regard du Code de l’environnement, les digues, considérées comme ouvrages hydrauliques, ne doivent pas rompre de façon dangereuse pour les populations. En tant que moyen de prévention du risque d’inondation ou de submersion, les performances et les limites de ces digues doivent être connues avec précision. Les digues de protection constituent donc une question politique mise en évidence par plusieurs événements récents (Xynthia 2010, la NouvelleOrléans 2005, Rhône aval 2003, Gard 2002, Aude 1999). Cet ouvrage rassemble les contributions présentées lors du 2e colloque national Digues maritimes et fluviales de protection contre les submersions (Digues2013), organisé par l’Irstea et Promosciences, les 12, 13 et 14 juin 2013 au Centre des Congrès d’AixenProvence, avec le soutien du MEDDE, du CFBR, et de la Région ProvenceAlpesCôte d’Azur. Il s’adresse aux maîtres d’ouvrages, gestionnaires, concepteurs, constructeurs, enseignants et chercheurs, services de contrôle, organismes financeurs, agissant dans les domaines d’activités liés, directement ou indirectement, à la sûreté des digues maritimes et fluviales.

Security of Flood Defenses
Author: Jos de Lange
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 3110622572
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 191
Book Description
This book presents new approaches to security risk analysis and scenario building on the basis of water works such as flood barriers and storm surge barriers. Defending flood barriers is not only important because of climate change and rising sea levels, but also due to the vulnerability of fresh water supplies and the increasing number of people living in vulnerable low-lying river and sea deltas.

Investigating Basic Principles of River Dike Improvement
Author: Warren E. Walker
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780833013668
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 122
Book Description
This report examines the consequences of alternative policies for providing flood protection to the non-tidal branches of the Rijn and the Maas rivers in the Netherlands. It is the only English language volume in a set of volumes produced by a consortium of research organizations that conducted this policy study. It focuses on estimating the flood damage that would occur under alternative safety levels, estimating the financial costs of alternative dike improvement strategies, and assessing the impacts of alternative flood protection policies. The primary objective of the impact assessment is to look for policies that would provide a high level of safety, would not cost too much, and would preserve as much as possible of the existing landscape and natural and cultural values along the rivers.
