Rijcken, T. (author), Kok, M. (author)In the spring of 2008, Delft University of Technology wrote a report for the Second Delta Committee, a body set up to advise the Dutch government and parliament on the Netherlands’ long-term flood risk policy. The Delft report included a colourful drawing of a solution for Rotterdam and the Drecht Cities, and the Delta Committee used this image...abstract 2010

Veerhuis, Lex (author), Kolen, B. (author), Kok, M. (author), Riedstra, D. (author)Design-criteria for flood-defences have a legal character in the Netherlands. Formerly, these flood protection standards were based on design-waterlevels, where a flood defence was implicitly supposed not to fail below this waterlevel. Since knowledge regarding dike-failure improved, a new risk approach has been developed based on a social cost...abstract 2017

Kok, M. (author), Brand, A.D. (author)The saying goes that ‘Everything is bigger in Texas.’ This holds true for both the flood risk in the Houston-Galveston Bay Area, and for the complexity of issues that need to be dealt with in order to reduce it – assuming there is agreement that the current risk is unacceptable. There is currently no formal...book chapter 2017

Kok, M. (author)Many functions are combined in the Rotterdam Roof Park project: It is a shopping mall, a parking garage, a park on the roof, and last but not least, a flood defense. The research in our program was done after the buildings and structures had been built. So the research projects were not hampered by the...book chapter 2017

Brand, A.D. (author), Kok, M.

As a point of departure, it assumed that a new generation of explicitly multifunctional flood defenses...book chapter 2017

Kok, M. (author)Risk-informed decision-making needs methods for assessing flood risk, and often the flooding probability and the consequences of floods (such as economic damage and fatalities) play an important role in the risk assessment. Also, measures to reduce the flood risk need to be formulated, in order to make a risk-informed decision, whether to...book chapter 2022

Schipper, H.R. (author), Grünewald, S. (author), Eigenraam, P. (author), Raghunath, P. (author), Kok, M.A.D. (author)Free-form buildings tend to be expensive. By optimizing the production process, economical and well-performing precast concrete structures can be manufactured. In this paper, a method is presented that allows producing highly accurate double curved-elements without the need for milling two expensive mould surfaces per single element. The...conference paper 2014

Klerk, W.J. (author), Kok, M. (author), de Bruijn, K.M. (author), Jonkman, S.N. (author), van Overloop, P.J. (author)In the Netherlands, flood risk analysis is usually carried out for a location, without considering potential flood defence failures in upstream areas. This may result in significant over- or underestimation of flood risks. The effect of upstream failures on failure probabilities and flood risks in other areas is called load interdependence of...conference paper 2014
