Abstract:This paper presents the risk analysis model and calculating method Of flood relief schemes of the reservoirs with regulating capacity, and discusses the model of the reservoirs without regulating capacity form theory. For the flood relief schemes of the reservoirs, the risk analysis is not only a balance of safety and economy but also the way for selecting the design flood standard. This model can be used in any single reservoir's flood relief risk analysis, and may be a basis of cascade reservoir's risk analysis.
