Vander Cam, Quentin (author)The tidal channels in the Eastern Scheldt basin, are out of equilibrium due to the reduced tidal prism as a consequence of the construction of the Storm Surge Barrier in 1986. An estimated 500 million cubic meters of sediment is required in order to reduce the cross-sectional areas of the tidal channels such that the system reaches a new...master thesis 2021

Kollaard, Freek (author), Meijers, Carlijn (author), van Strien, Charlotte (author), van der Veer, Irene (author), de Vries, Laura (author)Many low-lying densely populated areas and important economical regions in Europe are threatened by sea level rise. \cite{groeskamp2020need} suggest an international cooperation to be able to protect these areas if climate change mitigation fails: the construction of the Northern European Enclosure Dam (NEED). In this research first order...student report 2021

IJntema, Jelmer (author)In recent years, the awareness of climate change and sea level rise has grown. Especially in low lying countries like the Netherlands, with a large river delta with a high economical and natural value, extreme variations in water levels will have great impact. Former used solutions proofed to be expensive and in some cases disturbed the dynamics...master thesis 2021

Lambach, Jan Willem (author)The Meuse river has been made navigable for ships by the construction of a cascade of seven weirs. At only two weirs hydropower facilities exist. This implies the full hydropower potential of the Meuse cascade is not utilized. Rijkswaterstaat only provides additional permits when fish friendly turbines are used. By using pump-turbines the river...master thesis 2021

Huijsman, Douwe (author)There is a lot of uncertainty in climate change developments, and therefore in its consequences. For the flood defence system of the Netherlands, an important consequence of climate change is the sea level rise. Marine locks are large, rigid, and intricate structures, with a required lifespan of at least 100 years, for which often design...master thesis 2021

Schouten, Onno (author)Quay walls are often designed with Finite Element models (FE models) to take into account the complex soil-structure interaction and highly non-linear soil behaviour. These are complex models that rely on many input parameters that have uncertainties. Nowadays, new quay walls are often equipped with sensors that collect information about the...master thesis 2020

Winkel, S. (author)In the current breakwater design process, not all feasible concepts can be explored due to time constraints. However, designers are also influenced by breakwaters constructed near, or at the same location as their breakwater project. But also conservative assumptions influence the breakwater design process, for instance, regarding the wave...master thesis 2020

van Ham, Sebastiaan (author), Zijlstra, Kije (author), van Hulten, Chris (author), Laghmouchi, Kamal (author), Verschuyl, Paulien (author), Jagt, Milan (author)The use of the North Sea has transitioned into an intensely used industrial area, with the climate agreement as a driving force. The Paris agreement demands countries to change their main energy resources from oil, coal and gas to renewable resources such as wind. The Dutch government chose to use the space offshore for the development of wind...student report 2020

Schilder, Simon (author)This report describes the development of an outfall structure in Panama City. At this location a Matasnillo river enters the bay along the Cinta Costera. Since this river is polluted it causes a bad water environment and smell at the river mouth area such that it is unable for recreation. Boskalis wants to improve the area in co-operation with...master thesis 2020

Levinson, Marc (author)The Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management (Rijkswaterstaat) currently manages 137 navigation locks. Most of them have been constructed during the 20st century and were considered as unique projects. This led to a great variety in their designs and characteristics. Currently, 52 locks are reaching the end of their technical life...master thesis 2018

Kentrop, J. (author)Typical for the Dutch landscape are the many polders, which are situated below sea level and below waters directly surrounding the polders. A visual separation between land and water is caused by the flood defences that protect the polders from flooding. In 2005, artist Paul Izeboud came with the idea to make a transparent flood defence, thereby...master thesis 2016
