The research group collaborates with many partners in a study about the impact of a flooding of the Reimerswaal area, both locally and regionally. The research is about the cascade-effects of a flooding disrupting the vital infrastructure and measures to decrease the socio-economic impact and enhance possibilities for recovery of society. This study offers several possibilities for students. Assignments are available about analyzing the vulnerability of the critical infrastructure in Reimerswaal. An assignment can for example be focused at an in-depth analysis of the vulnerability of the civil works (roads, rail, sluices) or the electricity and communication networks (ICT, phone, etc).
