Abstract: Models for the flood assessment of direct losses are the most widely used, while the application of models for indirect impacts and cascading effects are much less frequent. This work presents a method based on a graph approach that explores some of the indirect flood impacts to help filling existing knowledge gaps. The approach has been applied in two urban case studies: flood in Mexico City and Monza city. Finally, it summarizes how the graph perspective allows to analyze the system properties and propagate the cascading impacts.
