20.500.12556/RUL-171743 Cross-border cascading hazard scenarios and vulnerability assessment of levees and bridges in the Sava river basin This study investigates cross-border cascading hazards and infrastructure vulnerabilities in the Sava River Basin, a seismically active and flood-prone region spanning the Slovenia–Croatia border. Conducted within the CROSScade project, the research focuses on assessing cross-border hazards and the vulnerabilities of levees and bridges. Key earthquake and flood scenarios were identified using advanced hydraulic and seismic modelling, forming the basis for evaluating the cascading effects of these events, including the potential failure of hydropower plants and associated flood protection systems. The analysis reveals that levees are particularly vulnerable to failure during the recession phase of flooding that follows an earthquake. At the same time, bridges are primarily affected by seismic loading, with minimal structural impact from flood forces. These findings underscore the pressing need for enhanced cross-border collaboration, updated design standards, and the reinforcement of critical infrastructure. The study provides essential insights for multi-hazard resilience planning and emphasises the importance of integrated risk assessments in managing cascading disaster impacts across national boundaries. cross-border risk Sava river basin seismic and flood scenarios critical infrastructure cascading hazards vulnerability čezmejna tveganja porečje reke Save potresno-poplavni scenariji kritična infrastruktura okoljska tveganja ranljivost true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2025-09-01 12:43:53 2025-09-01 12:44:00 2025-09-18 03:38:34 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2025 0 0 31 str. iss. 8, art. 214 Vol. 10 aug. 2025 0000-00-00 PostprintKoncna Objavljeno apc 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 502/504:556(497.4)(497.5) 2412-3811 10.3390/infrastructures10080214 247192579 grak@fgg.uni-lj.si-infrastructures-10-00214.pdf grak@fgg.uni-lj.si-infrastructures-10-00214.pdf 1 93BAD827F096759BBFFD655C8C1D5924 28f79baad0abfda0c44012749c766634fa3a0d3a53eba65d0ccddb4a82715d00 f4f553cc-8720-11f0-9328-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=215140 https://www.mdpi.com/2412-3811/10/8/214 1 6e3624c1-8720-11f0-9328-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=215138 Fakulteta za gradbeništvo in geodezijo 0 0 0
