Rate My Professor Wenyan Wu

Her academic interests center on environmental hydrology and water resources, encompassing hydrology, water resources engineering, water supply systems, climate change adaptation, and optimisation methods. Specific focuses include compound event analysis such as compound floods, water resource and supply system modelling and optimisation, artificial neural networks for environmental modelling, ensemble flood forecasting, and multi-objective optimisation for decision support. Dr. Wu serves as an Associate Editor for Environmental Modelling & Software, contributing expertise in water resources management and urban water supply systems. Notable research projects include the ARC Linkage project on water availability and demand for improved forecasts and management, and the IIT Kharagpur–University of Melbourne SPARC project on integrated urban water management for enhanced water security. Key publications feature "Battle of the Water Networks II," "Proactive planning for water distribution system rehabilitation and expansion under long-term uncertainty" (2026), "Optimising behind-the-meter solar for water distribution systems: impact of network configuration and electricity tariff structure" (2025), "Continental-Scale Dynamics of Flood Extremes: A Unified Spatio-Temporal Modelling Approach," and contributions to models for faster flood predictions. Her work supports advancements in sustainable water infrastructure and environmental engineering solutions.
