1. Prepare recommendations on the role and capabilities of numerical models to deal with problems relevant to dams throughout their life cycle (design, construction, operation, maintenance, rehabilitation, etc.).
2. Organize Benchmark Workshops to compare numerical models between one another and/or with reference solution, including the dissemination and publication of results.
3. Prepare recommendations on how computational methods can be used to estimate risks and account for uncertainties inherent to dams.
4. Review and consolidate the “state of the art” on new probabilistic approaches to traditionally deterministic inputs and outcomes of numerical modeling.
5. Propose lines of research aiming at establishing valid numerical models for the solution of dam problems presently not amenable to reliable numerical treatment.
