ABOUT INDIAN SOCIETY FOR HYDRAULICS (ISH)

The Indian Society for Hydraulics (ISH) was set up in 1992 as the technical, educational and non-profitary voluntary national organization to encourage and foster understanding amongst engineers, scientists and other technical personnel engaged in various activities related to hydraulics. With a large investment on developments related to water, energy, transportation and allied fields in the country and considering the importance of the hydraulic research, the role of ISH in bringing together the hydraulic engineering fraternity assumes great importance. The main activities of ISH include publishing Journals and organizing Conferences, Seminars, Workshops and Training courses to disseminate information among engineers, scientists interested in these areas. It’s objectives include:

To provide information to engineers and scientists working in the area of hydraulics and

allied disciplines.

To disseminate information to engineers and scientists in the field of hydraulics through

seminar/ symposia and short courses.

To encourage the members to keep upto date with developments in the country and abroad.
To publish a Journal of Hydraulic Engineering containing research/review/papers, notes

and also a news letter, twice a year.

To liaise with various international societies working in the field of hydraulics such an

International Association for Hydraulic Research (IAHR).

To accord recognition to outstanding workers in hydraulics through suitable awards.

Membership is open to Individuals, Government and Non-Government institutions interested in the fields of Hydraulics & Water Resources, Hydrology, Coastal engineering and related areas.

ABOUT CWPRS

Central Water & Power Research Station (CWPRS), Pune is the premier National Institute offering a wide range of comprehensive R&D services related to water and energy resources development, water borne transportation and allied fields. The solutions offered by the Research Station are based on the investigations from physical and mathematical models, field investigations coupled with desk studies or from a combination of these. The requirements of accurate and reliable instrumentation, data acquisition and control systems for physical model studies and prototype measurements are also met with by in-house developments. CWPRS with an interdisciplinary approach in all its activities thus represents unique services in all areas of water sector. As the Regional Laboratory of ESCAP since 1971, CWPRS has offered its services to a number of projects in the neighborhood as well as countries in the Middle East and Africa.

ABOUT GII (Gruppo Italiano di Idraulica – Italian Group for Hydraulics)

The aim of the GII is to promote and coordinate the development of basic and applied research in the disciplines related to water. Membership is open to all individuals and institutions/companies actively interested in fields related to hydraulics and its practical applications. The Association has currently approximately 800 members.

Activities range from river and maritime hydraulics to water resources development and hydraulic works, through to ice engineering, hydrology, hydroinformatics and continuing education and training.

The Association shall also support national and international co-operation with other water-related organizations on topics that are consistent with the purpose of the Association; the arrangement and the participation in educational programmes; the arrangement of working groups, research agenda, meetings and symposia; the exchange of scientific and academic experience and the dissemination of the results of its activities.

The Association accomplishes its goals by a wide variety of member activities including:

Bi-annual National conference providing an open forum for the presentation and discussion of important issues, studies, new developments and research, and for the general exchange of news and views. The next conference will be held in Brescia, September 2012;
Annual meeting on “Quality of teaching and research in Hydraulics”;
The bi-annual award “Torricelli” to the best young Italian scientist in the field of hydraulic engineering.

Objective:

Water resources have wide spatial and temporal distribution on earth due to which hydraulics of flow of water and hydrological aspects become much more complex. Due to its multiple benefits and the problems created by its excesses, deficit and quality deterioration, the conservation and management of water resources require special attention specially when the effects of climatic changes are also assuming significant importance. The surface transport and coastal zone management have also attained great importance for the progress and development of a nation. The objective of this workshop is to utilize the proceeds comprehensively for the benefit of the forthcoming water resources and coastal projects and for providing inputs to the prospective researchers through the invited lectures by eminent hydraulics and water resources experts from India and Italy. This workshop will substantially help in integrating the technologies in a global perspective by liaising with International Societies in the field.

Themes:

The workshop is being organized to broadly cover all aspects of hydraulics offlow, water resources

development and management and coastal engineeringthrough invited lectures. The eminent experts from

the India and Italyin the fieldof hydraulics and water resources will deliver lectures and the following

topics will be covered:

Flood Disaster and Mitigation Measures
Water Resources Development including Drainage
Effects of climate change on the Hydrological Parameters
Ecohydrology: hydrologic controls on ecological processes
Advances in Sediment Transport Theories
Advanced Modelling Techniques for Dams and Ports
Environmental Impact Assessment for Water Resources Projects
Application of Remote Sensing for Water Resources Development and Management

Participation of Companies and Industries:

Participation of Companies and Industries is most welcome. Following is the indication of the profiles of the prospective participants:

manufacturers of river and coastal protection works
manufacturers of large pumpsets/ booster pumps for power projects and for irrigation
manufacturers of field data measurement equipments like currents, discharge, sediment samplers,bathymetry surveys
manufacturersand companies of Remote Sensing, Telemetering, Early Warning System.
consultants engaged in environmental impact assessment studies
any other interested company engaged in water resources / coastal development projects
