Doelstelling van dit onderzoek is het via een haalbaarheidsstudie evalueren of, waar en hoe, het mogelijk is een stuwdam te realiseren in het Helmand-dal, en daarmee te voorzien in de vraag van de lokale bevolking naar elektrische energie. Al in een vroeg stadium van het onderzoek is geconstateerd dat deze doelstelling, binnen het kader van de...

For the course CT5318 a trip is made to Varna, Bulgaria, where hydraulic measurement s on the beach and the coastal structures are executed by the students. This report describes the measured data, the used methods and the technical interpretation of the results. All the data was processed in Varna and analysed once returned in the Netherlands....

This report is the conclusion of a series of experiments, which were performed on weirs placed obliquely in a shallow flow. Its purpose is to report on laboratory investigation on the flow over different types of oblique weirs, including behaviour and hydraulic characteristic of the flow, different phenomena in the neighbourhood of the weir,...

The container yard of the port of Lirquen will reach its capacity in a few years and the container terminal has no landward expansion possibilities to meet the future demand of container throughput. The bulk terminal has a lack of berths, due to increased throughput and insufficient depth, but does have possibilities for landward expansion....

It is important for dams and dikes planning to take the generation of waves within their reservoir into account. However, the theories used to determine the characteristics of those wind-generated waves often rely on conditions applicable in open sea. This paper will try to investigate their applicability to conditions present in reservoirs and...

The first issue involves the accessibility of the pier of the refinery where coastal tankers moor to load or unload their cargo. The current depth at the pier is too small for large coastal tankers to fully load when mooring at the pier. In order to increase their cargo capacity, the depth in the mooring area should be increased. To expand the...

The Durban Harbour, run by the National Ports Authority of South Africa (NPA), is the largest harbour in South Africa. To stay competing in the 21st century the harbour entrance must be widened and deepened for the entry of Post Panamax ships. An important part of the Durban Harbour entrance Widening and Deepening project is the demolition of...

Shallow flows are three-dimensional flows with two dimensions being signifcantly larger than the third dimension. Coherent structures, also called eddies, are areas in the flow, where velocity fluctuations are correlated, with a certain rotation. Although, generally, coherent structures of the order of the waterdepth contain most of the...

The objective of this study is to test the use and applicability of the Unibest CL+ and TC models for the White Lagoon case. The White Lagoon is a small bay near Balchik, Bulgaria, that is characterised by two T-groynes and a rocky bottom nearshore. A local hotel would like the present beach to be enlarged to accommodate for more guests. In...

Nowadays the most important sectors in the strategy for the future of the port of Rotterdam are container handling, chemicals and distribution. To offer these sectors the opportunity to grow and renew, space is needed. By means of the construction of Maasvlakte II this space can be given. This land reclamation is planned to be located in the...

Designing breakwaters on steep foreshores faces some problems. At present, it is not known what the influence of the steepness of the bottom slope is. Design formulae for armour layers don't take the bottom steepness into account in a direct manner. In theory, in irregular waves, wave average heights in shallow water become higher as the bottom...

Bij de beoordeling van de veiligheid van de Nederlandse duinenkust wordt gebruik gemaakt van een rekenmodel dat, voor vastgestelde ontwerpomstandigheden, de mate van duinafslag bepaalt. De kern van dit rekenmodel wordt gevormd door het zogenaamde DUROS-rekenmodel (TAW, 1984). Op basis van beschikbare informatie en het verwachte bereik van de...

This document focuses on the weather downtime in the offloading cycle of a generic LNG Floating Storage and Regasification Unit (FSRU). Results from these weather downtime assessments are essential for site concept selection and design of FSRU's, and are also used as input for logistics simulating the total gas supply chain. The FSRU is an...

This new land will be exposed to a North Sea wave climate and tidal currents. Severe erosion of the dunes and a large draw back of the coastline has to be avoided. One of the possibilities to influence the wave climate and thus the sediment transport nearshore is by using a perched beach with a submerged breakwater (see Figures A2 and A3). The...

The discovery of great oil reserves located under the northern part of the Caspian Sea has lead to an increased interest in the wave climate in this area. Statistical analysis of wave measurements is insufficient to determine reliable design wave conditions on the northern part of the Caspian Sea, because the amount of available wave...

Offshore structures are designed to resist the impact of the extreme wave. Shell EP Projects desires a computer model that is able to simulate the impact of the design wave on gravity based offshore platforms, such as the Sakhalin PA-B platform. Comflow is a numerical model that simulates fluid flow, by solving the Navier-Stokes equations using...
