Sedimentation reduction and check dam design in the Cilalawi River

An overdose of sediment from the Cilalawi River is going into the reservoir Waduk Jatiluhur. This is resulting in the problem of reservoir capacity reduction. With water still coming from different rivers, the future will be inundation. In this matter the recommendation for this problem is check dam(s) and changing land use, stated by the local...

Physical and numerical modelling of the erosion of a fluid mud layer due to entrainment

The subject of this master thesis is to present the processes taking place at the erosion of a fluid mud layer due to entrainment, to carry out experiments in an annular flume and compare the results of these experiments with a numerical model, which has been elaborated at the TU Delft. The report can be devided into five parts: physical and...
