Organisations
Hydraulics and Geotechnics KU Leuven
The Hydraulics Section of KU Leuven is active in the following three domains: (1) urban and river hydrology and hydraulics (prof. Patrick Willems), (2) coastal and estuarine hydrodynamics (prof. Jaak Monbaliu), and (3) sediment mechanics (prof. Erik Toorman). Research priorities are:
Urban and river hydrology and hydraulics. Key words: river hydrological and hydraulic modelling, urban drainage, hydrological extremes (floods, ...
Flanders Hydraulics Flanders Hydraulics
For more than 85 years, Flanders Hydraulics (FH) has been a centre of expertise for research and advice on hydraulic, nautical, sediment-related and hydrological topics. As a scientific institute and technical support service, we are a division of the department of Mobility and Public Works of the Government of Flanders. Flanders Hydraulics Research supports the preparation and execution of the policy of the Government of Flanders by ...

Forest, Nature and Landscape KU Leuven
Overall, the research carried out in this laboratory focuses on the spatial and quantitative assessment of biological and man-induced patterns and processes at the landscape and habitat level both in rural, urban and natural settings. We aim at coupling traditional research on forestry, landscape elements, land use, and biotic communities with earth observation, spatial data sciences, the statistical modeling environment, and planning tools. ...
Department of Civil engineering Ghent University
Fluid Mechanics Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Main research domains of STRO: 1. Computational Fluid Dynamics Computational Fluid Dynamics, in short CFD, is the technology aimed at the computer simulation of flows of liquids and gases. It is presently applied widely in research and industry, in all areas where the motion of fluids are important. In particular, aerodynamics, aerospace, hydraulics, environmental studies of air and water pollution dispersion and transport, wind energy, ...
General Botany and Nature Management Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The APNA unit covers fiveresearch domains: 1. vegetation research and spatio-temporal vegetation analysis - target vegetation types: mangroves, temperate deciduous forests, cork oak forests, vegetation of seepage zones (including types of wetlands); - methods: classical Braun-Blanquet relevés, PCQM transects, airborne and spaceborne remote sensing, GIS, application of hydrological modelling, wood anatomy and environmental stress, ...
Surface and Interface Engineered Materials KU Leuven
The main activities of our research group are related to the development of new and improved materials systems and advanced production methods. The research focus is on alloy systems as well as on novel materials such as nanomaterials, coatings and thin films.
