Learning Outcome: | Experience on team-working in international multi-cultural environment; project organisation and coordination skills; Experience in working with hydrological and 1D/2D free surface software on real case studies, documentation of project and presentation; professional engineering skills. |
Contents: | HydroEurope is an intensive course focused on collaborative engineering. International teams composed with participants from several academic partners (France, Spain, UK, Poland, Germany and Belgium) work collaboratively remotely through Internet and face-to-face on a case study where a variety of hydroinformatics tools has to be applied and used. Data from a catchments and a flood event in 1994 nearby the city of Nice/F are provided on top of which simulation models for runoff, free-surface and groundwater-flow are to be set-up for solving a complex engineering project. The objective is to study run-off at normal and flood situations, to analyse risk and damage potential of an extreme flood in rural and city areas and to develop a concept for situation improvement. Team-working through the Web will be complemented by a two week phase when all teams are working together face-to-face in Nice including field trips and presentations from local authorities and international experts. |
