structure. Image Added The library's main folder is entitled Flood Risk Uncertainty, and has a structure which is based on uncertainty in the following main categories: 1. |

Safety assessment 2. Consequences |

3. Operational forecasting

Currently, the main focus is on the first field: safety assessment of the flood defences. The example below shows a list of reports and papers. On the left you see the structure of the library, and on the right you see a summary of the selected report. The tags associated with this report determine which subfolder it belongs to. The selected report belongs to two main subcategories: hydraulic loads (HBC = hydraulic boundary conditions) and quantitative techniques. More information about keyword guidelines is given in the Keyword Instructions tab of this website.
Each report or paper contains a plus-symbol, which means that there is an attachment associated with the report. The attachment may be a PDF of the report, or it may be a link to a website where the report can be downloaded. There may also be notes associated with the report - for example the stated objectives of the study, or indications where the uncertainty information in the report an be found.

Initially, only the first category will be populated with documents, since this is the aspect related to the SBW-programme. The structure includes additional flood risk uncertainty topics such that expansion will be structurally feasible in the future. Reports and publications are all stored in the main folder Flood Risk Uncertainty; depending on applied keywords, they will also be visible in the following sub-category folders under the folder Safety Assessment (note that documents are not limited to one sub-category/keyword): Loads (HBC) Uncertainty analysis related to the hydraulic loads on flood protection works. Flood Defences Uncertainty analysis related to the flood defences (e.g. strength analysis of flood defences) Inland Uncertainties within the safety assessment can be dependent on the considered physical system. This section contains reports and publications related to uncertainty analysis for flood defences at inland water systems like rivers. Coastal Similar to the sub-category "Inland", this category covers the reports and publications related to uncertainty analysis for flood defences at coastal water systems. Lakes Large lakes are considered to be a separate water system. This sub-category covers reports and publications regarding uncertainty analysis for flood defences near lakes. Model Uncertainty Reports and publications containing information about the uncertainties resulting from applied physical or statistical models should be included in this sub-category. Quantitative techniques Reports and publications using quantitative uncertainty analysis are included in this sub-category. Future scenarios The specification of future scenarios (e.g. climate change or future policy scenarios) is often subject to uncertainties. Reports and publications related to the uncertainties within these future scenarios belong in this sub-category.
