Coastal flood managers seek to anticipate future flood risk and as a result consider the adaptation of flood defences. Instead of crest heightening, dikes can be adapted to include hydrodynamic reducing vegetated foreshores to form a nature-based hybrid flood defence, for instance; at managed realignments. In this study we investigated the...

Coastal flood risk is expected to increase due to climate change and population<br/>growth. Much of our coastlines is protected by “grey” infrastructure such as a dike.<br/>Dike maintenance and strengthening requires ever increasing capital and space,<br/>putting their economic viability in question. To combat this trend, more<br/>sustainable...

Rijkswaterstaat gebruikt het goederenvervoermodel BasGoed om lange termijn prognoses te maken van het goederenvervoer. Economische verwachtingen spelen hierbij een belangrijke rol. Het model BasGoed begint dan ook met een module waarin de economische groei bepaald wordt en vervolgens vertaald wordt naar de hoeveelheid vervoerde goederen. De...

Coastal defences such as dikes are increasingly pressured by climate change. Increasing storm surge, extreme rainfall and periods of draught requires evermore strengthening of dikes to maintain flood risk standards. Conventional dike strengthening (i.e., heightening and/or widening) will be either structurally or financially unfeasible. Therefor...

Nature-based strategies, such as wave attenuation by tidal marshes, are increasingly proposed as a complement to mitigate the risks of failure of engineered flood defense structures such as levees. However, recent analysis of historic coastal storms revealed smaller dike breach dimensions if there were natural, high tidal marshes in front of...

Insight into factors influencing the choices people make in case of an evacuation from a natural disaster can help governments and emergency management personnel to manage people in case of such a situation. One of the aspects that influences the choices that people make in such a situation is herding. Since herding has not been quantified,...

Extensive research is available on travel choice behaviour which occurs during evacuations in case of natural disasters. Due to the disadvantages of existing data collection techniques, more research is needed to better understand evacuation choice behaviour. The main objective of this thesis is twofold: (1) to develop, apply and assess a new...

Natural Gas (NG) can be used as fuel for several forms of transport. NG converted into liquid is called Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG). LNG has a favourable energy density for ease of transport and storage. On the other hand, LNG is cryogenic at -162 °C. To use LNG as fuel, it is required to use an LNG fuel system. An LNG fuel system consists...

Disaster evacuation studies are important but difficult or impossible to conduct in the real world. Evacuation simulation in a virtual world can be an important tool to obtain data on the escape and choice behavior of people. However, to obtain accurate “realistic” data, the engagement of participants is a key challenge. Therefore, we describe...

The Volkerak-Zoom Lake is an enclosed part of the estuarine delta in the southwest of the Netherlands and exists as such since 1987. The current freshwater lake experienced a deterioration in water and ecological quality. Especially cyanobacteria are a serious problem. To solve this problem it is proposed to reintroduce salt water and tidal...

Motivation The growth of our road infrastructure cannot keep up with the growing mobility of people, and the corresponding increase in traffic demand. This results in daily congestion on the freeways. It is an illusion that the problem of congestion can be solved completely within a few years, but it is possible to improve the current situation....

According to the Dutch building regulations, called Building Decree, 135 persons per minute should be able to safely escape via a doorway with a width of 1 meter, which is the same as 2.25 persons per second per meter. Since this value has been based on experiments conducted with healthy students, doubts have been raised on the validity of this...

A self-propelling colonoscopic device moving inside the colonic tube should be able to periodically grip safely to the colonic wall as well as to manipulate the generated friction. The feasibility of achieving high grip and friction manipulation by covering the device with mucoadhesive films is experimentally tested. More precisely, the...

De Kaderrichtlijnwater (KRW) is een Europese richtlijn die ervan uitgaat dat water een erfgoed is dat beschermd en verdedigd moet worden. De richtlijn geeft het kader voor de bescherming van het oppervlaktewater en grondwater. Doel van de richtlijn is o.a. het beschermen en voorkomen van verdere achteruitgang van aquatische ecosystemen en het...
