Research Institute in River Dynamics and Hydrological Engineering (FLUMEN)
FLUMEN is a joint research institute in River Dynamics and Hydrological Engineering, with several lines of consolidated research in river hydrodynamics, urban hydrology, reservoir dynamics, dam hydraulics, irrigation canal control and sedimentary dynamics. FLUMEN’s laboratories occupy a total area of about 2000 m2, partly covered partly in the open air, where various piping and pumping systems are available to supply the different facilities with flows of up to 400 l / s. FLUMEN also has advanced HPC simulation tools based on the IBER model for free-flowing water flow calculations, flood risk, sedimentary dynamics in rivers and reservoirs, and general river dynamics problems.
