Assessing the Hazard of Flooding from Breaching of The Alacranes Dam in Villa Clara, Cuba

2025-07-03

Abstract excerpt

Flooding due to dam failures is a critical issue with significant impacts on human safety, infrastructure, and the environment. This study assessed the potential flood hazard that could be generated from breaching of the Alacranes Dam in Villa Clara, Cuba. Thirteen reservoir breach scenarios were simulated under several criteria for simulating the flood wave through the 2D Saint Venant equations using the Hydrolog...
