International Junior Researcher and Engineer Workshop on Hydraulic Structures

The International Junior Researcher and Engineer Workshop on Hydraulic Structures (IJREWHS) is a conference held for graduate students and other young researchers who want to learn more about canals, dams, and other constructions that alter water flow. At this conference, attendees take field trips to local hydraulic structures and listen to peer-reviewed paper presentations on a variety of subjects, including urban flooding, hydropower, water flow around fixed structures, wave energy, sediment transport, how water affects different building materials, etc. As these researchers share the results of their experiments, they help others learn more about the operation of hydraulics constructions, different structural designs, the effects of this field on the environment, and what this all means for the future of engineering hydraulic structures.
