However, many applications require computationally fast simulation models. Due to their prolonged calculation times, these 1D/2D models are unsuited for such applications. This research compares three modelling approaches with different levels of complexity and simulation times: (1) a highly detailed 1D/2D model, (2) a 1D/1D model with two different flood cone parameterizations, and (3) a newly developed surrogate dual drainage model. The three approaches are tested and compared on a Belgian case study. Results show that the surrogate dual drainage model can emulate the results of highly detailed models with calculation time reductions in the order of magnitude of 105.Keyphrases: computational efficiency, computational hydraulics, neural networks, surrogate modelling, urban drainage model, urban flooding In: Goffredo La Loggia, Gabriele Freni, Valeria Puleo and Mauro De Marchis (editors).
