In recent years an advanced program for the reliability analysis of flood defence systems has been under development. This paper describes the global data requirements for the application and the setup of the models. The analysis generates the probability of system failure and the contribution of each element and parameter of the system to this probability. Thus weak links in the flood defence system can be identified, as well as the mechanisms and parameters that contributes most to the probability of failure.
