– Hydrodynamic forces during operation of gates (physical model)
– Dissipation chambers (physical model)
– Flood risk maps (2d models)
– Waves in supply channel due to operation of hydropower plant (1d model and field measurements)
– Hydropower plant dams, gates, spillways and stilling basins (physical models)
– Pump-storage systems – analysis of transient phenomena, optimisation of intake etc. (physical models, field measurements)
– Monitoring of water levels (field measurements)
