MIKE 21 OS FM - Oil spill modelling using flexible meshStephen Flood
MIKE 21 OS FM
Oil spill modelling using flexible mesh
This two-day course teaches you the fundamentals of 2D oil spill modelling using flexible mesh, how to setup and model the fate and transport of oil using the MIKE 21 Oil Spill model (OS) FM.
Oil spills pose serious threats to water environments and place massive pressure on the entities that are responsible for the emergency response and clean-up operations, such as oil companies and national authorities.
The Oil Spill module simulates the spreading and weathering of suspended substances using a dedicated oil spill template. Oil spill modelling is important for emergency response planning and environmental impact assessment. Oil spill models predict the spreading and weathering processes acting on the spilled oil. Results can be evaluated with respect to the impacts on flora, fauna and selected species or habitats.

Undertaking Modelling of Flooding due to Wave Overtopping using the MIKE by DHI Software Suite - Dr Suzie Clarke (DHI)
This presentation outlines the basis for one of the methodologies that can be followed in order to simulate the flooding of coastal areas due to overtopping of coastal defences by extreme or storm wave conditions. It is not expected that the slides are exhaustive in detail, nor present the only approach, but are provided to give basic guidance for all experience levels. Care is advised when following this methodology and all results should be subjected to reasonable checking.

SCOUR AROUND MARINE STRUCTURES
Dealing with scour related problems in water environments
This two-day, thematic course introduces you to the procedures of analysis related to assessing scour risk at marine structures. The focus is on offshore wind turbine foundations and how to protect against or mitigate the scour formation by applying scour protection systems of, for instance, rock dump or mattresses. After the course the participant will be able to identify and define scour issues, asses the risk of scour and possible mitigation solutions for various types of marine structures and obtain the recent knowledge gained over the last decade from significant development and research within the field of marine scour.
Scour is a well-known issue for hydraulic and marine engineering. Scour occurs when structures are placed on erodible beds and exposed to current and waves. The foundations of e.g. offshore wind turbines are often erected in harsh hydrodynamic environments, exposed to tidal currents and large waves individually or in combination. Therefore, it is essential to have a detailed understanding of how these hydrodynamic environments affects the structure as a whole, including the foundation and the interaction between flow, structure and sea bed to ensure short– and long term stability. Evidently, the formation of scour around marine structures can pose a threat to the structural stability and the cables transporting electricity.

2015 DHI UK & Ireland Symposium
Modelling of Extreme Conditions for Wave Overtopping at Weymouth Bay
Oliver Way (Hyder Consulting), Tuesday 21 April 2015 at 16:00 - 16:20
A wave model study of Weymouth Bay was undertaken for Weymouth and Portland Borough Council to investigate flooding in the historical centre of Weymouth which is understood to be caused by tidal and fluvial waters overtopping flood defences, groundwater rising above ground level in response to high tides and heavy rain and wave overtopping along the open coast / Esplanade. The wave modelling results in this study are used to provide input conditions to the overtopping calculations which will in turn be used as inputs to the models of overland flow to provide flood extents. MIKE 21 SW was applied to simulate extreme wave conditions with combined extreme water levels. The model domain extends from Chesil Beach in the west to Lulworth Cove in the east. Extreme water level data were supplied by the Environment Agency for Weymouth from the Coastal flood boundary conditions for UK mainland and islands report (Environment Agency, 2012). Extreme wave values were also obtained from this Environment Agency report at offshore locations on the model boundary. Extreme wave conditions were considered for three directional sectors: south west, south and south east. A joint probability approach was applied for a range of return periods and climate change epochs. Wave data were extracted at nearshore locations along the beach front of Weymouth Bay. These data were used as input conditions for wave overtopping calculations (EurOtop) at site specific points along the beach to determine overtopping discharge rates along the beach front.

Project-based learning (PBL) involves students designing, developing, and constructing hands-on solutions to a problem. The educational value of PBL is that it aims to build students’ creative capacity to work through difficult or ill-structured problems, commonly in small teams. Typically, PBL takes students through the following phases or steps:
Identifying a problem
Agreeing on or devising a solution and potential solution path to the problem (i.e., how to achieve the solution)
Designing and developing a prototype of the solution
Refining the solution based on feedback from experts, instructors, and/or peers
Depending on the goals of the instructor, the size and scope of the project can vary greatly. Students may complete the four phases listed above over the course of many weeks, or even several times within a single class period.
Because of its focus on creativity and collaboration, PBL is enhanced when students experience opportunities to work across disciplines, employ technologies to make communication and product realization more efficient, or to design solutions to real-world problems posed by outside organizations or corporations. Projects do not need to be highly complex for students to benefit from PBL techniques. Often times, quick and simple projects are enough to provide students with valuable opportunities to make connections across content and practice. Implementing Project-Based Learning
As a pedagogical approach, PBL entails several key processes: (1) defining problems in terms of given constraints or challenges, (2) generating multiple ideas to solve a given problem, (3) prototyping — often in rapid iteration — potential solutions to a problem, and (4) testing the developed solution products or services in a “live” or authentic setting.
Defining the Problem
PBL projects should start with students asking questions about a problem. What is the nature of problem they are trying to solve? What assumptions can they make about why the problem exists? Asking such questions will help students frame the problem in an appropriate context. If students are working on a real-world problem, it is important to consider how an end user will benefit from a solution.
Generating Ideas
Next, students should be given the opportunity to brainstorm and discuss their ideas for solving the problem. The emphasis here is not to generate necessarily good ideas, but to generate many ideas. As such, brainstorming should encourage students to think wildly, but to stay focused on the problem. Setting guidelines for brainstorming sessions, such as giving everyone a chance to voice an idea, suspending judgement of others’ ideas, and building on the ideas of others will help make brainstorming a productive and generative exercise.
Prototyping Solutions
Designing and prototyping a solution are typically the next phase of the PBL process.

As Scotland’s principal environmental regulator, SEPA is responsible for ensuring compliance with environmental quality standards. The implementation of the Water Framework Directive (WFD), which focuses on the ecological and chemical status of water bodies, combined with a rapidly expanding aquaculture sector, means risk-appropriate modelling of the impacts from fish farms is required. Using a combination of small scale highly simplified modelling, large scale, low resolution screening tools, and relatively complex waterbody scale hydrodynamic modelling and particle tracking , we can obtain a better understanding of the risks posed to the marine environment, influence strategic policy decisions and support sustainable future farm growth and development.
Presented at the DHI Ireland Symposium 2018.
This presentation will cover the extensive application of hydraulic modelling on the national Catchment-based Flood Risk Assessment & Management (CFRAM) programme, as well as discussing the likely future modelling requirements for the detailed development of over 100 flood relief schemes programmed over the coming decade.

My experiences of learning to use MIKE. Jonathan Griffiths, ABPmer.Stephen Flood
"Jonathan will share his experience of learning to use MIKE software for coastal projects over the last 18 months. Previous to joining ABPmer, Jonathan was an oil spill modeller and used specialised spill models such as SINTEF’s OSCAR model, RPS ASA’s OILMAP model and BMT’s OSIS model. Jonathan has found learning to use MIKE a steep but rewarding learning curve. Jonathan will take about some of the differences between these models and MIKE, and the lessons he has learnt along the way."

Using numerical modelling to regulate a growing aquaculture industry. Ted Sch...Stephen Flood
Scotland is currently the largest producer of Atlantic salmon in the EU, and the third largest globally. Exports have doubled in the past decade to nearly £1 billion per annum, and the Scottish Government has specified targets for further expansion. SEPA is working with fish-farmers to help them comply with environmental legislation and to ensure that this growth is sustainable.
Modelling is used to predict the environmental impact of organic material and medicines, and to determine appropriate locations and biomass limits for fish-farms. Traditionally, these farms have been assessed and licensed in isolation, but numerical modelling is increasingly being used to investigate larger scale impacts, cumulative effects, and hydrodynamic connectivity between farms.
MIKE21 models of several water bodies have been developed, with the Particle Tracking module used to predict the spatial and temporal variation of SLICE, a sea-lice medicine. A sub-model of the Scottish Shelf Model developed by Marine Scotland has been converted from FVCOM and is being used to develop a screening tool for assessing the interaction between farms in the Highlands and Islands. By adopting risk-based modelling over a range of scales, SEPA can obtain a better understanding of the environmental impact of fish-farms, influence strategic policy decisions and support sustainable growth of the aquaculture industry.

FAST Danube – Hydraulic and sediment transport modelling with MIKE 21 FM mode...Stephen Flood
The objective of the FAST Danube project is to propose navigation improvement solutions on the Romanian-Bulgarian common sector of the River Danube. The proposed technical solutions would ensure that the required navigation parameters (navigation channel width, depth and bend radius) are achieved at the specified lowest navigation water levels. This would enable safe navigation and transport activities on the Romanian-Bulgarian common sector of the River Danube throughout the entire year.
MIKE 21 FM hydrodynamic and sediment transport models have been developed to help understand the behaviour of the river and the reasons for the changes in river morphology, which result in constraints to navigation at the critical locations. The MIKE 21 FM models are required to support the selection of solution options by providing a first assessment of the relative performance of navigation improvement solutions in maintaining the required navigation fairway parameters. In addition, the MIKE 21 FM models will also provide outputs to support the assessment of the potential impacts of the solutions on navigation conditions and on the river environment. Furthermore, the models will also be used as tools in future management of the river in the project area.
This presentation will focus on the numerical modelling conducted with the MIKE 21 FM model within the FAST Danube project, and how the MIKE 21 FM models are used in the development of navigation improvement solutions and options appraisal process.

Keywords: smart water, smart cities, urban drainage, climate change, surrogate modelling, weather radar, frameworks
Cities across the world are facing significant water system challenges related to urbanisation and climate change. To advance the concept of integrated real-time control of water systems, an innovative generalised technology framework has been developed as part of a collaborative research effort. The framework facilitates the global acceptance and improved implementation of smart real-time control of water systems which offers a proven, cost effective alternative to the conventional approach of increasing system capacity.
The core of the framework is a generalised data platform which can be used within all water domains. This platform integrates time series data and spatial data with numerical models, and offers a broad suite of generalised tools for data processing and reporting. Data tools can be executed as automated workflows that replace tedious and error prone manual tasks. A key element of the work is the development of fast and accurate surrogate models of complex physical systems, complementing standard deterministic high-fidelity models adapted to observations in real time in order to ensure efficiency and performance of the automated model predictive control algorithms. A second element is the utilisation of local area weather radar data, since distributed rainfall observations and accurate forecasts are essential for optimising the use of the system capacity.
This work focuses on the impacts of using the new smart real-time control of water systems framework on a full scale, real world example using the urban drainage system of the city of Aarhus, Denmark as a testbed.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
How to Make a Field invisible in Odoo 17Celine George
It is possible to hide or invisible some fields in odoo. Commonly using “invisible” attribute in the field definition to invisible the fields. This slide will show how to make a field invisible in odoo 17.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
