Helsloot, T.C. (author)Due to increasing marine traffic intensity on inland waterways the interaction between ships and banks is becoming more of a problem. Bank effects make ship manoeuvring more difficult and rivers need to be protected against ship-induced currents and waves. This thesis contributes to the development of a new method that simulates these ship-bank...master thesis 2016

Brakenhoff, D.A. (author)The subsurface in the Western part of the Netherlands is generally characterized as a regional aquifer, in which most of the lateral groundwater flow takes place, covered by a semi-permeable layer. The semi-permeable layer is often split into a phreatic layer on top of an aquitard (which has an even lower permeability). The phreatic layer and...master thesis 2014
