IBER: Hydraulic Modelling for Pond Classification

This hydraulic modelling course with IBER is designed to provide the student with the tools and knowledge necessary to carry out simulations of floods caused by a possible collapse of the containment dam of water reservoirs and thus evaluate its possible consequences on the territory, in such a way as to classify the reservoir according to its risk category. The IBER software, developed by the Centre for Studies and Experimentation in Public Works (CEDEX) and the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC), is a powerful and versatile tool for simulating free-flow flows, as well as in reservoir and dam systems.

This course represents a unique opportunity to specialize in hydraulic modeling, a key tool for water resources management and the safety of hydraulic infrastructures with a practical and applied approach.
