Dr. Weiming Wu is the James K. Edzwald Professor of Water Engineering at Clarkson University, NY, USA. Dr. Wu earned his Ph.D. from Wuhan University of Hydraulic and Electric Engineering, China in 1991. He was a Lecturer/Associate Professor at his Alma Mater in 1991- 1995, a Research Fellow of Alexander von Humboldt Foundation at the Institute for Hydromechanics, University of Karlsruhe, Germany in 1995-1997, and a faculty member at the National Center
for Computational Hydroscience and Engineering of the University of Mississippi in 1997-2013. His research interests include fundamental sediment transport; hydro- and morphodynamics in rivers, estuaries, coastal waters and
uplands; surge and wave attenuation by vegetation; interaction between surface and subsurface flows; free surface flow and sediment transport modeling;
dam/levee breach and flood modeling; and water quality and aquatic ecosystem/ecotoxicology modeling. He has developed a suite of computational models for flow, sediment transport, pollutant transport and aquatic ecology in riverine and coastal waters. He authored a
book "Computational
River Dynamics"
published through Taylor & Francis, UK in November 2007. In addition, he has published more than 150 articles on journals and conferences. He received a best paper award in 2007 from the World Association for Sedimentation
and Erosion Research (WASER). He is a Fellow of ASCE, and a member of IAHR and WASER. He served as an Associate Editor for the International Journal of Sediment Research in 2008-2010 and for ASCE Journal of Hydraulic Engineering in 2010- 2019, as well as the Chair for ASCE Computational
Hydraulics Committee (2010-2012), ASCE Task Committee on Dam/Levee Breaching (2009-2012), and ASCE Sedimentation Committee (2016-2018). He currently serves as a council member for WASER.
