Nonlinear surface waves over topography

Janssen, T.T. (author)

As ocean surface waves radiate into shallow coastal areas and onto beaches, their lengths shorten, wave heights increase, and the wave shape transforms from nearsinusoidal to the characteristic saw-tooth shapes at the onset of breaking; in the ensuing breaking process the wave energy is cascaded to small-scale turbulent motions in the surf zone....

Rock and roll: Turbulence-induced damage to granular bed protections

Hofland, B. (author)

Layers of stone or rock are often applied around hydraulic structures to protect the sand bed from scouring. Determining the size of the rocks is complicated by the fact that the flow over a bed protection usually is non-uniform. This thesis describes two experimental series in which the stability of a single stone under non-uniform flows is...

Flocculation Dynamics of cohesive sediment

Maggi, F. (author)

Cohesive sediment suspended in natural waters is subject not only to transport and deposition processes but also to reactions of flocculation, \textit{i.e.} aggregation of fine particles, and breakup of aggregates. Although aggregation and breakup occur at small and very small length scales compared to transport and deposition, flocculation can...

Origin and prediction of seiches in Rotterdam harbour basins

De Jong, M.P.C. (author)

This thesis focuses on the harbour oscillations that occasionally occur in certain basins of the Port of Rotterdam. Such standing waves, called seiches, need to be taken into account in this harbour area for the design of water protection works (such as dykes) and for the closure management of a movable storm surge barrier, located along the...

Polyps revealed on a virtual colon voyage: Three-dimensional colonoscopy reduces discomfort

Mols, B. (author)

In the western world, colon cancer is the second-largest cause of death from cancer. Since there is a considerable risk that polyps five millimetres and more in diameter may develop into malicious tumours, it is important that they can be detected at an early stage. Until now, this is done by means of an endoscope through the anus. Inserting and...

Mud exposed: We must get rid of this idea that mud is a problem

Schrauwers, A. (author)

Mud and shipping dont mix. Silted-up waterways must be dredged, which costs money. Even so, the behaviour of sand in water systems has been the subject of many studies, whereas mud has remained the great unknown. Geographer Ankie Bruens dived in to gain insight into the matter.
