The purpose of this paper is to present the hydraulic problems relating to the computation of hurricane surge, hurricane waves, runup of the waves for providing hurricane flood protection at Texas City, Texas, as well as the effects of rainfall upon the protected area during periods of normal and high tides. The problems of providing protection...

Construction of two hurricane barriers to protect the coastal communities of New Bedford and Fairhaven, Massachusetts and Providence, Rhode Island is nearly complete. The projects include navigation gates, pumping stations, street closures, cooling water canal, and numerous utility gates. Operation of these various features introduces many...

The Dutch defence line appeared to be inadequate to withstand stormsurges of exceptional strength. In 1916 a heavy storm caused severe floodings and damage in the northwestern part of Holland, a disaster which led to the closing of the dangerous Zuyderzee. And in 1953 a stormsurge of even greater strength, with a floodlevel which surpassed all...

Tijdens het hoogwater in februari 1980 als gevolg van de hoge afvoer van de Rijn, is door medewerkers van het Centrum voor Onderzoek Waterkeringen (COW) een inventarisatie uitgevoerd van markante verschijnselen die toen bij de rivierdijken optraden. Een samenvatting van de verzamelde gegevens is in dit rapport opgenomen. Uit de beschikbare...

An analysis of "soft" measurements, in the form of beach nourishment, to protect ourselves against the sea. The rapport covers the following subject with regard to "soft" measurements: - Design of soft solution: review of design tools, practical consequences of morphological theory and failure modes - Construction methods for soft solutions:...

Structural approaches can be employed to stabilize shorelines against erosion, to provide sheltered areas for swimming or for a myriad of other benefits. In this section, the emphasis will be on shoreline stabilization although much of the information and discussions presented would be equally applicable to accomplish other objectives. Three...

Het voorliggende onderzoek heeft tot doel inzicht te verschaffen in de wijze waarop het verloop van het instroomdebiet en de binnenwaterstand afhangen van de breedtegroei van de bres. De resultaten van deze verkenning geven aan in hoeverre (of en zoja, met welke middelen) nader onderzoek naar het proces van bresgroei gewenst is en wat de...

The 10 year struggle of the Rijkswaterstaat (State Department of Public Works) and contractors with the task to build a permeable sea defence structure in the Oosterschelde, has been registered in sixteen successive project reports which contain thousands of documents. These documents are sometimes complete part-project papers and sometimes not...

Dune erosion during storms is a dynamical process. Failure of a dune to protect the hinterland flooding depends on the loads (sea level, wave height) and duration of these loads. This study investigates the description of the statistics of the load histories of extreme storms for load modelling on dunes.

The second Chapter refers to the institutional and legislative framework, that is, the laws in force at the different levels, from local to global, in each partner’s country and concludes with considerations on optimal levels of coordination. Chapter III begins with the methodology recommended for the study of small-medium basins, based upon the...
