2027 International Conference on Water Engineering Safety and Flood Risk

About to WESF 2027

The 2027 International Conference on Water Engineering Safety and Flood Risk will be held in Changsha, China. The conference will focus on the safety of water engineering construction and operation, the formation mechanism of flood disasters and risk prevention and control, and will explore the collaborative application of engineering measures and scientific early warning, as well as emergency management. The conference covers research contents such as reservoir and embankment safety, river channel management, flood control and drainage, urban flooding, flood simulation, hydrological forecasting, disaster risk assessment and emergency response. It also pays attention to the changing patterns of extreme hydrological events under the background of climate change. The application of technologies such as remote sensing monitoring, Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, digital twin, and hydrological big data in flood warning, water engineering monitoring and risk management will also become important communication directions. Changsha has a developed water system and its urban development is closely related to flood control and drainage, as well as water environment governance. This provides rich practical scenarios for related research. The conference will conduct in-depth discussions on issues such as water engineering risk identification, flood disaster warning and comprehensive prevention and control, and exchange practical experiences from different regions. It will provide new research ideas for improving water engineering safety levels and flood risk management capabilities.
