Flash flood can cause dramatic damages to the infrastructure of transportation networks. Because of the uncertainty of flash floods and the access function of roads, assessing the impact of flash floods on transportation systems has been a great challenge. In this study, we proposed a framework for evaluating the risk posed by flash floods to transportation network, which considers the interruption probability of road links and the expected impact on the access function of transportation. To assess the probability of interruption, we used the random forest model to output the flash floods susceptibility. Then, a multiple centrality model was used to evaluate the expected impact when a link was interrupted. The risk takes into account the flash floods susceptibility and road multiple centrality, and it identify critical links. Using the natural break points method, the result of flash floods susceptibility, road multiple centrality and risk were divided into five levels: extremely low, low, moderate, high and extremely high. Approximately 30.8% of the roads were found to be at high and extremely high risk, and most of these roads were located in Sichuan and Yunnan provinces. The flash floods susceptibility contributes more to the risk than the road multiple centrality, thus, further study should be focused on the areas with high flash floods susceptibility. We discussed different disaster prevention and mitigation measures for the different types of high risk links. The results can improve our understanding of the risks posed by flash floods to road networks. The proposed generalized network risk analysis method provides a new perspective and tool for analysing the impact of flash floods on road network. |
