Users manual: DUCT-SUSTRA

Some information is given how to use the scour model DUCT-SUSTRA (Hoffmans, 1991). The scour model predicts the morphological process in scour holes or trenches and consists of two separated sub-models: a flow model DUCT and a morphological model SUSTRA. The flow model is based on the equation of continuity and the momentum equations for...

Local Scour: Flow simulation by the 2-D turbulent model ODYSSEE

The general purpose of this research project is to model mathematically the local scour downstream of a structure (2-D). The model has to simulate the development of the scour as a function of the time. Basically two models are necessary namely a flow model and a morphological model. The latter model has to describe the bed and suspended load...

Hydro-morphological study Douro estuary part 9: Hydro-morphological mathematical model

As a continuation of the initial study on the morphology of the Douro mouth, performed by Hydronamic in 1982, the Administracao dos Portos do Douro e Leixoes commisioned Hydronamic bv to construct a mathematical hydro-morphological model of the Douro mouth. This second part of the morphological study of the Douro mouth is divided into three...

Terminal do Seixal, hydro-morphological study

Hydronamic has performed a study for the design of the new access channel to the terminal of Siderurgia Nacional at Seixal (near Lisbon) in the Tagus estuary. The report deals with the following subjects: - In chapter 2 a description is given of the mathematical tidal model, the calibration thereof and the final results. - Chapter 3 deals with...
