Abstract
Dams provide a wide range of benefits but they have risks associated with their potential fails, e.g. dam-breaks. Floods derived by this type of fails usually have dramatic consequences in terms of economic losses and casualties. Therefore, the ability to predict the extent and the velocity of propagation of this type of floods is crucial. In this work the numerical code Iber+ is used to reproduce the flood derived by the break of the Malpasset dam. The accuracy of the numerical results along with the high computational efficiency of the code makes Iber+ a suitable tool for forecasting of flood events even in early-warning systems.
