The Dresden Conference on Hydraulic Engineering

The Dresden Conferences on Hydraulic Engineering are highly frequented forums for experts, serving as a platform for the exchange of experience, the dissemination of new scientific findings, and the presentation of new hydraulic engineering projects and plans. Participants come from universities and research institutions, companies and engineering offices, and from public administration. There is always a large number of international experts among the participants, as well as TU Dresden graduates. The conference covers all areas of hydraulic engineering and hydromechanics that have been subject of research and teaching at the institute.

The first Dresden Conference on Hydraulic Engineering was held in 1954 to mark the 100^th birthday of the founder of the Dresden Hydraulic Engineering Laboratory, Professor Hubert Engels. Since the mid-eighties, the colloquia have generally been held annually. They are still organised by the Institute of Hydraulic Engineering and Technical Hydromechanics, which is supported by the "Association of Sponsors of the Hubert Engels Institute of Hydraulic Engineering and Technical Hydromechanics at Technische Universität Dresden e. V.".
