Numerical modelling is applied to support decision-making related to river management, flood risk and infrastructure planning.
Analyses address river hydraulics, flooding behaviour and sediment dynamics across channels and floodplains under a wide range of hydraulic conditions. Model setup, calibration and interpretation are tailored to project-specific objectives and available data, ensuring results that are robust, transparent and suitable for engineering and environmental applications.

Hydrodynamics and Flood Processes
Hydrodynamic modelling is undertaken to quantify flow behaviour, water levels and hydraulic interactions within river channels and floodplains. Analyses address a broad range of flow conditions, from everyday regimes to extreme flood events, using two- and three-dimensional numerical approaches.
The resulting simulations support the assessment of flood scenarios, inundation extents and hydraulic performance of river systems, providing a technical basis for flood mitigation studies and river engineering design.

Sediment Transport and Morphodynamics
Sediment transport and morphodynamic modelling is applied to assess channel behaviour, sediment pathways and morphological response under varying hydraulic conditions. Analyses consider erosion and deposition processes, sediment continuity and the interaction between flow dynamics and bed evolution.
Model results are used to evaluate morphological impacts associated with natural variability and engineering interventions, supporting studies related to channel stability, scour risk and long-term river system evolution.

Flood Risk and River Management Applications
Numerical modelling forms a key component of flood risk assessment and river management studies, providing quantitative information on flood behaviour and hydraulic performance. Simulations are used to explore a range of scenarios, including extreme events, system constraints and proposed interventions.
Outputs are structured to support river management planning, flood protection strategies and infrastructure design, enabling transparent and defensible decision-making processes.

Modelling Approach
Modelling studies are based on established physical principles and validated numerical methods. Model configuration, resolution and boundary conditions are defined in accordance with project objectives, governing processes and available data.
Emphasis is placed on robustness, consistency and clarity of interpretation, ensuring that modelling results can be confidently applied within engineering studies, environmental assessments and planning workflows.
