IJREWHS 2020 8th IAHR International Junior Researcher and Engineer Workshop on Hydraulic Structures - 8th IJREWHS 2020
Invitation
Hydraulic engineering is one of the most important fields of civil and
environmental engineering with challenges arising from new and complex
environmental issues to upgrades or replacement of aging infrastructure.
Such challenges will require the combined efforts of both researchers and
practitioners in future years. The IAHR International Junior Researcher and
Engineer Workshop on Hydraulic Structures (IJREWHS) brings together
young scientists and engineers to discuss hydraulic structure designs, new
research and practical solutions.

This workshop is the 8th in a successful series organized by the IAHR
Hydraulic Structures Committee. Previous workshops were held in
Montemor-o-Novo, Portugal (2006), Pisa, Italy (2008), Edinburgh, Scotland
(2010), Logan, Utah USA (2012), Spa, Belgium (2014), Lübeck, Germany
(2016) and Denver, Colorado USA (2019).

The 2020 edition will be held in Galway – Europe's Capital of Culture in 2020,
located on Ireland’s wild Atlantic coastline. The Local Organizing Committee
is therefore delighted to invite you to participate in the 8th IAHR IJREWHS
taking place on June 7th – 10th 2020 in Galway, Ireland.
IJREWHS 2020 8th IAHR International Junior Researcher and Engineer Workshop on Hydraulic Structures - 8th IJREWHS 2020
Workshop intention
The objective of the IJREWHS is to provide an opportunity for young
researchers and engineers to gain international exposure by presenting and
discussing their research to current and future international research leaders
and experts in hydraulic structures. In a friendly environment, authors and
presenters receive constructive feedback from their peers and a committee of
senior researchers on their paper and presentation. Based on that feedback,
authors will submit a revised final version of their manuscript, which will
undergo a review by peers (workshop participants) and senior researchers.
Once accepted, the paper will be published open access at Utah State
University for large exposure to the international community.

Junior research and engineering participants will gain valuable experience
during the workshop through the peer reviewing and chairing of sessions.
Additionally, the participants will discuss the presented works in round table
discussions, together with the committee of senior researchers. This
procedure encourages intensive but positive and friendly career development
in addition to enabling the students to make valuable contacts in the field of
hydraulic structures research and engineering.

About Galway
Galway, a harbour city on Ireland’s west coast,
sits where the River Corrib meets the Atlantic
Ocean. The city’s hub is 18th-century Eyre
Square, a popular meeting spot surrounded by
shops and traditional pubs that offers a vibrant
atmosphere often accompanied by live Irish
music. Nearby, stone-clad cafes, boutiques
and art galleries line the winding lanes of the
Latin Quarter, which retains portions of the
medieval city walls. The city is surrounded by a
number of famous tourist attractions along
Irelands    Wild       Atlantic   Way   including
Connemara, the Burren and the picturesque
Cliffs of Moher.

In 2020, Galway will be European Capital of
Culture which is one of the biggest cultural
events in the world.
