Sediment transport concentrations and sediment transport in case of irregular non-breaking waves with a current

In many coastal, engineering problems the sediment transport plays a part. A transport gradient causes accretion or erosion. Various models, such as that of Bijker, Engelund and Hansen (van de Graaff and van Overeem, 1979) and Nielsen (1985) are available to estimate the sediment transport rate if the hydraulic and environmental conditions (wave...

Seabed response to water waves

The final objective was to evaluate the stability of an offshore pipeline from a geotechnical point of view. On the Dutch part of the Continental Shelf pipelines are used for the transportation of oil and gas and utilities liRe glycol. The mean waterdepth on this part of the North Sea varies from 20-40 meters. As this region is a major fishing...
