معرفی
Ass. Prof. Dr. Bernhard Gems is an Adjunct Professor in the Hydraulic Engineering Section at the University of Innsbruck's Faculty of Technical Sciences. His research focuses on hydraulic engineering challenges in mountainous regions, including sediment transport dynamics, landslide dam processes, and numerical modeling of fluvial systems. He specializes in advanced technologies like LiDAR and CFD simulations to study river morphodynamics and geohazard risks.
Key research interests include fluvial sediment connectivity, cascading hazards in alpine environments, and the integration of remote sensing data into hydraulic models. His work emphasizes practical applications for flood risk management and infrastructure resilience in mountainous terrains.
Notable contributions include studies on UAV-based bathymetry, seepage analysis in landslide dams, and the morphological impacts of sediment-laden flows. His interdisciplinary approach bridges hydraulic engineering with geomatics and environmental science.
