3 Centre for Water Systems
Part of the multidisciplinary College of Engineering, Mathematics & Physical Sciences Research interests across the urban water cycle, with particular emphasis on: hydroinformatics urban water management Consultancy – wide range of projects & partners MSc in Water Management

4 Dissemination of best practice

5 Collaboration with leading universities worldwide

6 Collaboration with leading companies & organisations

7 Flood Research @CWS Urban flood modelling and impact assessment
building damage, health impact, traffic disruptions Real time flood forecasting & early warning systems Flood resilience measures and evaluation of future scenarios urban growth, climate change, socio- economic changes 1000x faster than standard modelling!

8 Skills and Expertise Coupled 1D/2D models sewer/overland flow
Flood damage assessment GIS tool Traffic modelling during flooding A ready research team for impact of extreme multi-hazard events to critical infrastructure systems and strategic planning

9 Partnerships sought NERC PURE Risk Innovation Funding Call
multi-hazard impact and strategic planning EPSRC fellowships RT flood modelling, forecasting, damage assessment and impact-based warning ERC grants HORIZON 2020 WATER /2015: Strengthening international R&I cooperation in water

10 Student placement & project opportunities
Smart/early warning systems for flooding and bathing water quality management Development of hydraulic model(s) for real time flood management – data assimilation Study on the impact of extreme multi-hazard events to critical infrastructure systems and strategic planning Health impact assessment due to flooding
