This workshop, held in conjunction with ASDSO's 2017 Dam Safety Conference, introduces engineers and designers to modeling spillways and dam related hydraulic structures using advanced Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) methods. This all-day workshop will take place on September 15.

The A-Z "hands-on" format allows participants to set up, run and analyze models on their own laptops following the instructor's guidance. In addition, guest lectures by industry recognized CFD experts punctuate the day to provide objective insights into applying CFD tools for practical design-build applications. Attendees are granted FLOW-3D licenses two weeks prior, and extending a month following the workshop in order to help consolidate gains.

Daniel Gessler, Ph.D., P.E., Alden Research Laboratory, Brian Crookston, Ph.D., P.E., Schnabel Engineering and Benjamin Israel-Devadason, P.E., CFM, Gannett Fleming, Inc. will be the guest speakers at the workshop.

Up to 7 professional development hours are available for attending the full workshop.
