Coastal protection and water management

Key research areas

• Water treatment, management, and water quality analysis using innovative processes (for example electrocoagulation, adsorption, microwave detection, microplastic detection).
• Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and numerical modeling from micro-fluids to large-scale phenomena (for example turbidity currents, floods, storm surges).
• Innovative materials for coastal and hydraulic infrastructure and water treatment, integrating waste streams and bio-based technologies.
• Stochastic hydrological processes at large scales.
• Laboratory and field experiments for nature-based solutions, infrastructure interaction, and vegetation.
• Sustainable coastal protection strategies.
