Van Kruiningen, P. (author)Hoe evenwichtsverlies bij golfoverslag ontstaat en welke krachten daarbij een rol spelen is onduidelijk. In dit rapport is onderzocht hoe groot de wrijvingskrachten op het binnentalud van een dijk zijn ten gevolge van het overslaande water. Omdat dit probleem niet toegankelijk is voor berekening, zijn een aantal proeven gedaan. Hiertoe is een...master thesis 1979

Deiters, B. (author)Dit verslag geeft een beschrijving van een onderzoek naar de golfbelasting van kruinmuren boven op breukstenen golfbrekers. Een kruinmuur is een betonnen element dat boven op een golfbreker geplaatst wordt. De voornaamste functie is het terugbrengen van de overslag zonder toepassing van zeer veel stortsteen en toplaagelementen. In dit onderzoek...master thesis 1999

Van Steeg, P. (author)In the framework of the ComCoast project, the concept of the Crest Drainage Dike has been studied regarding the reduction of wave overtopping. This study only focuses on the average wave overtopping discharge. The basic concept of the Crest Drainage Dike is a basin, integrated in the crest of the dike, that collects overtopping water and thus...master thesis 2007

Bosman, G. (author)Nowadays the protection of our country for high sea levels and heavy storms is daily news. The ComCoast project (COMbined functions in the COASTal defence zones) is originated by ten organisations out of five European countries bordering the North Sea coasts in order to develop innovative solutions for flood protection in coastal areas. Instead...master thesis 2007

Hinostroza Garcia, S. (author)This thesis shows a set of equations that define the micro-stability and macro-stability of reinforced grass revetments with geosynthetics on inner dike slope during an overtopping event. At micro-stability level, it has been analyzed that the equilibrium in a soil particle using the criterion of incipient motion of soil particle. The forces in...master thesis 2007

Valk, A. (author)The safety of a large part of the Netherlands depends on sea dikes. Due to climate change, a sea level rise is predicted. Together with stronger storms and more wave attack, wave overtopping on the current dikes will increase. As a response, crest levels of the dikes need to be raised in order to meet the present regulations for wave overtopping...master thesis 2009

Khan Mozahedy, A.B.M. (author)Detrimental impacts of fossil fuels and its foreseen scarcity are encouraging research for the development of the renewable energy as alternatives. A newly developed composite seawall concept could be a vitally important technique for wave energy conversion. A 3-D model of composite seawall has been simulated to comprehend its hydraulic...master thesis 2009

Van Kester, D.C.P. (author)The goal of this master thesis is to describe the spatial distribution of the wave overtopping discharge over and behind the crest of a coastal defence structure. The influence of the most relevant parameters on this process is explored. This research has been performed by means of a physical model. The following relevant parameters were varied...master thesis 2009

Afridi, Z.N. (author)The purpose of this report is to investigate the differences in overtopping characteristics over the crest of a rubble mound breakwater when the crest is made either impermeable or permeable. Among numerous characteristics that are effected by a modification in the permeability of the crest, this report looks specifically into three separate...student report 2010

Chen, X. (author)There is a chance that storm surges occurring in coastal areas cause overtopping over wide crested dikes. The overtopping water results in a hydrodynamic load on the structures built on top of the crest. This is for example the case at the Belgian coast where houses and hotels are constructed on top of the dike crest. In this study, physical...master thesis 2011

Krom, J.C. (author)This thesis focuses on wave overtopping at rubble mound breakwaters with a non-reshaping berm. The research was aimed at gaining insight into the influence of a permeable berm on the overtopping behaviour. Moreover it was desired to validate existing prediction methods for the spatial distribution of overtopping for breakwaters with a non...master thesis 2012

Liu, S. (author), Huang, J. (author), Rayo, S. (author), Lim, T.Y. (author)The Afsluitdijk (Enclosure Dam) is a main dam that forms the fundamental part of the larger Zuiderzee Works that separates the Zuiderzee, a salt water inlet of the North Sea, and turning it into the fresh water lake of the IJsselmeer. It protects the central Netherlands from the effects of the North Sea. It was constructed between 1927 and 1933,...student report 2012

Pijpers, R. (author)Hardly any flood defence system is a continuous dike system, since it is often interrupted by non-water retaining structures, as for example stairs, buildings, roads, fences and trees. Also larger hydraulic structures as floodgates and sluices are sometimes situated in the dike alignment. The transition between these different objects and the...master thesis 2013

Martínez Pés, V. (author)Comparison of measured overtopping data with computations with Swash. The SWASH output discharges are smaller than the 5% lower limit of Eurotop and Neural Network predictions. Nevertheless, they were close values and they have the same order of magnitude, which is very important when comparing overtopping values. No refection analysis was done....master thesis 2013

Landa, P.M. (author)The Afsluitdijk is unable to withstand the future conditions that belong to an annual probability of occurrence of 1/10 000 per year for water level and wave conditions. Solution of Rijkswaterstaat is to strengthen the dike according to the principle of the wave overtopping resilient dike (NL: Overslagbestendige dijk). Therefore the Afsluitdijk...master thesis 2014

Roest, Bart (author)Numerieke modellen worden alsmaar belangrijker om voorspellingen te doen in de waterbouwkunde. Het is namelijk veel eenvoudiger en goedkoper om proeven numeriek te simuleren dan om deze uit te voeren in een laboratoriumopstelling. De numerieke modellen moeten echter wel worden gevalideerd aan de hand van metingen. In dit rapport wordt de...bachelor thesis 2014

Salas Pérez, M. (author)The main goal of this project is to verify the numerical model SWASH when dealing with overtopping prediction by comparison of full scale measurement results to results of numerical model testing. For that purpose, the harbour in Zeebrugge (Belgium) has been considered; there, several storm events have been measured in a rubble mound breakwater...student report 2014
