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...

The aims of this paper are: 1. To publish some available coastal measurements and computations of more than local importance. 2. To investigate the influence of groynes in practice. 3. To investigate the motion of the gullies in the outer deltas. The following conclusions are drawn: 1. The gross littoral drift along the Dutch coast is of the...

In order to make predictions for the morphology of an alluvial bottom a thorough knowledge of the flow pattern is needed. In tidal channels, without a nett discharge over the tidal period, the main flow effects on the morphology will, on an average, remain relatively small because of the tidal variation. Therefore second order flow phenomena...

The present thesis consists of five articles, in all of which links are established between sedimentological aspects of sediments - mostly below the low-water 'line - in the Oosterschelde and either large- or small-scale morphological changes. Large morphological changes and associated movements of sediment which occur in the tidal system of the...

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...

A two dimensional mathematical model DUCT, which is based on a parabolic boundary layer technique, using finite elements, is proposed to predict the flow and turbulence field in complicated geometrical conditions, where recirculating flow may occur. Numerical results of the DUCT-model are compared with k-eps-predictions as well as laboratory...

In this report the results of a bed-load experiment in a curved flume are presented. The experiments have been carried out in the Laboratory of Fluid Mechanics (L.F.M.) at the Delft University of Technology. The main object of the experiments is to develop and to test data-acquisition procedures for future suspended-load experiments. At the same...

The mathematical model for river bend morphology, as developed by Olesen, for bed-load transport is discussed, by comparing the results with some new experimental data. The model consists of a two-dimensional depth-averaged flow model together with a sediment balance and can be used to compute the dynamic river bend morphology. The main purpose...

A laboratory experiment in a 180 degree curved flume with a mobile bed and suspended sediment transport is described. The flow is stationary. The main purpose of the experiment is to provide data to calibrate and test morphological models for river bend flow with suspended sediment. The bed topography is measured by means of an profile indicator...

A two dimensional depth-averaged model for the concentration field of suspended sediment in river bend flow is formulated. Transport of suspended sediment in horizontal and vertical directions is modelled. Convection by the main and secondary flow and turbulent diffusion are incorporated. The model is capable of computing the exchange of...

Bank erosion is incorporated in one-dimensional and two-dimensional horizontal models for river morphology. The banks are assumed to consist of a fraction of cohesive material, which becomes washload after being eroded, and a fraction of granular material, with the same properties as the material of the bed. The banks are taken to be eroded by...

A laboratory experiment in a 180 degree curved flume with a mobile bed and suspended sediment transport is described. The flow is steady. The aim the of experiment is to obtain data on the axi-symmetrical region. The bed topography is measured by means of a profile indicator. Downstream of the bend entrance a pool and a submerged point-bar are...

A laboratory experiment in a 180 degree curved flume with a mobile bed and suspended sediment transport is described. The flow is steady. The bed topography is measured by means of a profile indicator. The bed topography is characterized by a slowly damped oscillation of the transverse bed slope. Downstream of the bend entrance a pool and a...

It is very convenient to make use of rivers as water supply for various purposes, i.e. irrigation, industrial and domestic uses. Even if it is a very common practice, the utilization of river waters must be carefully planned and its consequences analysed. For example, before starting on a new withdrawal of water the need of water supply more...

A simple mathematical model for the simulation of river meandering processes is presented and analysed. The model is schematized as follows: computation of steady-state flow field and riverbed topography; and computation of bank erosion rate as a function of the near-bank hydraulic and morphological properties. The model is linear for the...

A laboratory experiment in a 180 degree curved flume with a mobile bed and suspended sediment transport is described. The flow is steady. The median sediment diameter (160 micrometer) is larger than in the preceeding experiments, run no. 1 to 3 (90 micrometer). The bed topography is measured by means of a profile indicator. The bed topography is...

A numerical two-dimensional model for river morphology is extended with bank erosion. The model is formulated in curvilinear coordinates. This allows the use of a boundary-fitted computational grid, suited for rivers with a curved centre-line and a non-uni form width. Dealing with non-homogeneous bank erodibility is shown to require a non...
