Numerical modelling of shallow jet flows: A case study of Waterdunen

Shallow jet flows are often coupled to high flow velocities and complex flow patterns. To properly ensure the stability of the barrier between both water bodies surrounding the jet, a scour analysis is often a necessity. Such analyses are inevitably coupled to the hydrodynamic processes occurring in jet flows, either in the form of loads on...

Scour hole formation for lateral non-uniform flow in non-cohesive sediments

For a project in the province of Zeeland, The Netherlands, a culvert was installed trough a dike to restore the tidal flow. Shortly after commissioning of the facility a scour hole at the end of the bottom protection developed. Although the scour hole was anticipated in the design, the scour hole was developing more rapidly than predicted....
