Research with, at and in the water

Research at the Institute of Hydraulic Engineering and Technical Hydromechanics includes both physical model tests in the Hubert Engel laboratory and numerical modelling of selected hydraulic engineering problems as well as the combination of these methods. We conduct research on the morphology of watercourses, the functioning of spillways and operating facilities, synergies between flood protection and natural watercourse development, flood protection in inland and coastal areas, material behaviour of bituminous or synthetic resin-based sealants, wave effects, backwash effects on revetments and riverbeds, influence of groynes on riverbed structures and many more areas.
