A major challenge in 2D flood simulations of urban areas is the modelling of bridges and culverts. These structures can limit the discharge, cause the water-level to rise and hence effect the flooding process. In the present article of the journal Wasser Energie Luft [1], we propose a method to account for such structures in 2D flood simulations by using stage-discharge relationships.
