This thesis is aimed at performing a risk analysis on the Terdoppio Novarese River in Northern Italy as per European Commission Directive 2007/60/EC. The dissertation will first introduce the importance of flood risk mapping. Then, the state of the art of flood risk mapping through numerical modelling will be discussed, paying particular attention to the various existing models and tools aimed at producing flood risk maps for river environments such as the Terdoppio Novarese River. The OrsaDem numerical code used in this project will be described in depth, later introducing the different flood scenarios that were tested. Finally, the results of the simulations performed for this thesis will be shown and discussed.

Abstract
This thesis is aimed at performing a risk analysis on the Terdoppio Novarese River in Northern Italy as per European Commission Directive 2007/60/EC. The dissertation will first introduce the importance of flood risk mapping. Then, the state of the art of flood risk mapping through numerical modelling will be discussed, paying particular attention to the various existing models and tools aimed at producing flood risk maps for river environments such as the Terdoppio Novarese River. The OrsaDem numerical code used in this project will be described in depth, later introducing the different flood scenarios that were tested. Finally, the results of the simulations performed for this thesis will be shown and discussed.È consentito all'utente scaricare e condividere i documenti disponibili a testo pieno in UNITESI UNIPV nel rispetto della licenza Creative Commons del tipo CC BY NC ND.
