Short Course on Measurement Techniques in Hydraulics – University of Parma
Fabio Addona
Dear Coastal List members,
I would like to inform you about the Short Course on Measurement Techniques and Data Processing for Scientific Research in Hydraulics, which I’ll be teaching at the Department of Engineering and Architecture of the University of Parma, Italy. The registration is free of charge (meals are not included).
The course is intended for Ph.D. students, postdoctoral researchers, and anyone interested in advanced measurement techniques in hydraulics and fluid mechanics, and will be held in person. It is not specifically focused on coastal engineering, but a wave-current flume will be used for hands-on and experimental activities.
The course combines theory and hands-on laboratory sessions, covering topics such as:
- Measurement systems and uncertainty analysis
- Dimensional Analysis
- Signal processing and Monte Carlo methods
- Advanced optical techniques (e.g., Particle Image Velocimetry)
- Data acquisition, analysis, and presentation
Key Information:
- Dates: January 20-23, 2026;
- Location: Department of Engineering and Architecture, University of Parma, Italy;
- For Registration and more info: please contact me at fabio....@unipr.it or fad...@udel.edu. More details and a link to the registration form can also be found here
Feel free to share this with anyone who might be interested.
Best
Fabio
