Invitation to Participate in Survey on Quality Management in Flow Modeling

Posted on: 23 January 2025

Numerical flow models have become a standard tool in hydraulic engineering practice over the past decades. Rapid developments, particularly in data availability and computing power, allow and require increasingly sophisticated and complex models. This development raises the question of how the quality of modeling and its results can be adequately tested and ensured. Numerous factors […]

PhD in Modelling the behaviour of river bed dynamics to support Nature-based solutions.

Posted on: 15 January 2025

Are you interested in setting up innovative model solutions to better understand river bed dynamics after flood events and prolonged periods of low water levels? At the Water Engineering & Management department we are looking for a PhD researcher to strengthen our team. We are an active and dynamic group of researchers pioneering in the […]

PhD on Sedimentation Enhancing Strategies for Delta Sustainability

Posted on: 11 November 2024

Coastal river deltas must adapt to relative sea-level rise. Sedimentation, which occurs naturally in deltas, is a key factor for successful adaptation. However, anthropogenic activities reduce sediment delivery and hinder sedimentation processes. This PhD project aims to explore the potential of sedimentation for adaptation in deltas around the world. It will assess sedimentation processes and […]
