The Chair and the Institute of Hydraulic Engineering and Water Resources Management (IWW) address issues related to flood protection, among other topics, using an engineering-based approach and often employing an interdisciplinary methodology. In addition to field measurements, the IWW’s scientific methods include hydraulic model experiments and hydrodynamic simulations.
The IWW’s objective in the KAHR 2.0 project is to analyze retention potential and examine the effectiveness of traditional and innovative flood protection measures under climate change conditions. As the entity responsible for the project office, the IWW also serves as a coordinator and information disseminator on-site for affected parties and interested stakeholders.
