ABSTRACT
To evaluate the risk of potential pipe failure in a city, we developed a fast flood modelling framework that can automatically analyse the terrain data to set up the model inputs for each simulation. Thus, multiple scenarios covering a wide range of possible pipe burst locations can be simulated to identify the likelihood of an area being affected. The results will help the water company understand the risk and identify hotspots that are vulnerable to pipe failure such that a better asset management plan can be achieved to minimise the risk from their own buried assets.
