From 29 September to 1 October 2026, the Resilient HydroTwin team joined the DST–NWO Water Disaster Management Mid-Term Review in Chennai, hosted by IIT Madras.

Resilient HydroTwin research was presented at the 2026 European Conference on Computing in Construction (EC3), held in Corfu, Greece, from 12–15 July.

What happens when different types of flooding occur at the same time?

Members of the Resilient HydroTwin project participated in ICONHIC 2026, presenting new research on how digital technologies and community-centered approaches can support more resilient responses to increasing climate-related risks.

Flood resilience is often framed as an engineering or institutional challenge. But what if the real bottleneck is communication?

Members of the Resilient HydroTwin project team recently participated in ISCRAM 2026 (Information Systems for Crisis Response and Management), where they presented their latest work on flood emergency mobility and behavioral modeling.

Members of the Resilient HydroTwin project team recently participated in the International Conference on Resilient Systems 2026, themed “Resilience in an Age of Disruption”, where they presented their work on: “Digital Twins in Flood Resilience: Potential, Challenges and Reliability for Urban Applications”, was delivered within the track Digital Foundations of Resilient Built Environments. It explored the role of digital twins as emerging tools to support disaster preparedness, response, and long-term urban resilience planning.

Ramachandran.A from Okapi Research & Advisory  presented a paper under the theme Urban Water Management and Water Infrastructure at the conference, Cities of Care: Shaping Sustainable and Equitable Futures through the Water–Food–Waste Nexus, held at the IIT Madras Research Park (IITMRP), Chennai, on 30-31 January 2026.

The Resilient HydroTwin (RHT) Visioning Workshop was held on 28 January 2026 at the IIT Madras Research Park . This is the second in a series of workshops planned under the Resilient Hydrotwin project.

Members of the Resilient HydroTwin project team recently participated in the International Climate Resilience Conference (iCARE), held at LMU Munich, Germany, from 26–29 October 2025.

On 23 June 2025, the first stakeholder workshop of the ResilientHydroTwin project was successfully held at TU Delft, with hybrid participation from over 30 stakeholders across academia, government, and practice. 

The Resilient HydroTwin (RHT) Inception Workshop was held on 4 July 2025 at IIT Madras Research Park. The pilot aims to develop a participatory Digital Twin platform to strengthen flood resilience in Tambaram City Municipal Corporation (TCMC)- a newly formed urban local body within the Chennai Metropolitan Area (CMA).
