Verification of Delft FLS

Nowadays flooding because of a dike breach can be simulated with high accuracy by use of computer models. Delft FLS, which stands for DELFT Flooding System, developed by WL - Delft Hydraulics, is such a model. The hydrodynamic processes occurring during a flooding are complex, for example moving hydraulic jumps and propagating bores. The...

Physical and numerical modelling of the erosion of a fluid mud layer due to entrainment

The subject of this master thesis is to present the processes taking place at the erosion of a fluid mud layer due to entrainment, to carry out experiments in an annular flume and compare the results of these experiments with a numerical model, which has been elaborated at the TU Delft. The report can be devided into five parts: physical and...
