Computational Hydraulics and River Engineering Laboratory (CHREL) is a research group led by Dr. Jennifer G. Duan, Professor, in the Department of Civil Engineering and Engineering Mechanics, University of Arizona. CHREL is committed to state-of-art experimental research and numerical simulations of flow hydraulic and hydrologic process, as well as sediment transport and river morphodynamics.  Â
