Training Course Website Watch on Demand
The IAHR Online Training Course on “Numerical modeling of outfall systems and discharges: practical aspects” was held from 4 to 7 May 2026, attracting strong global interest with nearly 400 registered participants. The course addressed various topics related to numerical simulation of outfall systems in various settings.
Delivered by Kaushl Kumandur (Sydney Water), Hossein Kheirkhah (University of Ottawa), Ed Beling (Intrawater), Sana Ramezani (McGill University), Diego Casas (Federal University of Paraná), Majid Mohammadian (University of Ottawa), Danial Goodarzi (University of Ottawa), Xiaohui Yan (Dalian University of Technology) and Nathan Costa (Federal University of Paraná), the course was built around the idea of understanding numerical modeling approaches under settings such as shallow waters, wave-current interaction, density currents, machine learning methods, Large Eddy Simulation as well as an insight into regulatory guidelines, with a special focus on the case of Australia.
