In order to protect the booming city and nearly 25 million civilians’ lives and properties, a quantity of flood defences have been built along the Huangpu River. Therefore, a trustworthy reliability analysis method is summoned. In this MSc study, the reliability analysis of the flood defence system along a 10-kilometre stretch was performed. More importantly, the approach to analysing the reliability was developed for the flood defences along the Huangpu River, based on the VNK2 project in the Netherlands.
