Abstract
The paper describes the different methods available for solving the problem of one-dimensional flood routing. Starting from the definition of the problem and the assumptions used to schematize the flood routing phenomenon, alternative methods are described in the light of different purposes for their use encountered in hydraulic or hydrological practices. Particular attention is given to simplified methods ranging from the so-called “hydrological models” to an intermediate model, known as PAB, which combines the simplicity of a hydrological model to the accuracy of a hydraulic model.
