IJREWHS 2021 8th IAHR International Junior Researcher and Engineer Workshop on Hydraulic Structures - 8th IJREWHS 2021
Invitation
Hydraulic engineering is one of the most important fields in civil and environmental
engineering. Challenges arising from new and complex environmental, climate
change and societal issues will require upgrade and replacement of aging
infrastructure and development of new and innovative solutions. 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.

The Local Organizing Committee is therefore delighted to invite you to participate in
the 8th IAHR IJREWHS taking place on July 5th – 8th 2021 and hosted online by the
National University of Ireland, Galway.

Workshop Now Online
Due to Covid-19 restrictions, the next IJREWHS will be celebrated fully online using a
Virtual workshop platform. Synchronous activities will be carried out in small groups,
thus ensuring active engagement amongst participants and the Leadership Team of
the IAHR Hydraulic Structures Technical Committee. For more information, see

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 prepare a
revised final version of their manuscript, which will undergo a review by peers
(workshop participants) and senior researchers. If accepted, the paper will be
published as an open access publication with a Digital Object Identifier at Utah
State University, ensuring 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.
