Practical 1D & 2D Flood Modeling for Water Engineers using InfoWorks ICM

What you’ll learn
– Create and configure 2D surface flood models using DEM/LiDAR data, generate meshes, and assign appropriate roughness and infiltration parameters.
– Set up and run fully coupled 1D-2D simulations, enabling realistic interaction between underground drainage systems and surface flooding.
– Apply rainfall events, boundary conditions, and solver settings to produce stable and accurate hydraulic simulations.
– Analyze and interpret model results, including flood depth, velocity, surcharge, and overflow outputs for engineering decision-making.

Requirements
– Basic understanding of hydraulics and drainage concepts (such as flow, rainfall, and stormwater systems) is helpful but not mandatory.
– A licensed or trial version of InfoWorks ICM installed on a Windows system.
– Basic knowledge of GIS or CAD (e.g., ArcGIS, QGIS, AutoCAD) is beneficial but not compulsory

Description
This comprehensive course is designed to take you from the fundamentals to advanced applications ofInfoWorks ICM, one of the most powerful hydrodynamic modeling tools used globally in stormwater, wastewater, and flood risk management. Whether you are a beginner or a practicing engineer, this course provides a complete, step-by-step learning path to help you build accurate, reliable, and professional 1D and 2D models.

The course places strong emphasis onreal-world applications, such as urban drainage design, flood risk assessment, stormwater infrastructure analysis, and emergency planning. You will also learn how to runRain-on-Grid simulations, integrate 1D-2D models, interpret outputs, troubleshoot common issues, and apply best practices for professional modeling.
By the end of this course, you will have the confidence to build complete InfoWorks ICM models independently, analyze results, and apply them to engineering projects, research work, or consultancy tasks.

This course is suitable for beginners, intermediate learners, and professionals looking to upgrade their skills in one of the industry’s leading hydraulic modeling platforms.

Who this course is for:
– Civil, Environmental, and Water Resources Engineers involved in stormwater, sewer, and urban drainage design.
– Flood Modelling and Hydraulic Engineers working on 1D, 2D, or coupled flood simulations.
– Graduate students and final-year engineering students seeking industry-relevant modelling skills.
