Conference on hydraulic modelling and uncertainty, Nice, France
2 June 2010 - 2 June 2010
France
A conference on hydraulic modelling and uncertainty entitled 'SimHydro2010' will take place from 2 to 4 June in Nice, France.
Modelling in fluid mechanics, hydraulics and hydrology, whether using digital tools or scale models, has reached sufficient maturity to be in daily use by engineers for analysis and communication.
Today, complex cases can be handled thanks to ever-more sophisticated tools and abundant computing power. However, quantifying uncertainty in data and models for integration into decision-making processes remains a legitimate concern. Open questions will be among the topics up for discussion at SimHydro2010, including the calibration and accuracy of complex models, their relevance to case studies and their prediction capability.
The event is being jointly organised by the Société Hydrotechnique de France (SHF), the University of Nice-Sophia Antipolis (UNS), the International Association for Hydro-Environment Engineering and Research (IAHR) and the Association Française de Mécanique (AFM).For further information, please click: here(opens in new window)
