Veiligheid tegen overstromen: Kosten-batenanalyse voor Ruimte voor de Rivier, deel 1

This report is part 1 of a Cost-Benefit Analysis of the project ‘Space for the Rivers’, which aims at improving the safety against flooding along the river Rhine. A new method has been developed to find the optimal safety level for dike rings against flooding and the accompanying investment strategy. This method has been applied to 22 dike rings...

A Vertical Sorting Model for Rivers with Non-uniform Sediment and Dunes

Vertical sorting fluxes and the resulting organisation of grain size fractions over bed elevations, i.e. the vertical sorting profile, influence bedform dimensions and the bed surface composition. As a result, they will affect the bed roughness, the rate and composition of the sediment transport, the large-scale river morphology, and water...

RIVERSandLAND: Dikes for eternity, an ace up our sleeve

This investigation is aimed at creating an alternative concept of living with water and required flood safety for the large Dutch rivers, which concept can be realised over some hundred of years. It has provided the opportunity for frank and open thinking and discussion, and should lead to a concept that can be also used in other areas. An...

Morphological computations for suspended sediment transport: unsteady sediment transport

The present report gives a description of the mathematical model for suspended sediment transport. The model can be used to simulate the movement of suspended sediment in a two-dimensional (longitudinal and vertical) flow field. It can also be applied to determine bed level changes caused by any human interference in the regime or geometry of a...

Beddingvormen

Overview of bed forms (ripples, dunes, etc) in rivers. A literature study regarding bed forms caused by river flow in cohesionless material (sand bed). Bed forms generated by waves and wind are excluded.

Lecture notes on "The Role of Rivers to Mankind"

It is the task and target of River Engineering as a profession to provide all the tools for arriving at an optimum utilization of the potential resources, optimum in the sense of promoting the beneficial characteristics of the river and eliminating or at least checking the adverse qualities. To strive for this aim, there must be a scientific...

Discussion of bedload movement formulas of Kalinske, Einstein and Meyer-Peter and Müller and their application to recent measurements of beload in the rivers in Holland

Overview of sediment transport formulas and comparison with measurements in Waal and Rijn river in the Netherlands.
