Van Es, H.E. (author)This study aims to improve the predictive capabilities of flow pattern and depositional behaviour of non-Newtonian, high concentration sand and fines mixtures. The depositional behaviour influences the geometry of the deposit and the distribution of sand and fines particles, which in turn influence the strength and consolidation performance of...master thesis 2017

Hanssen, J.L.J. (author)To date there is limited knowledge about the flow behaviour of non-Newtonian slurry and tailings flows. In hydraulic engineering and the mining industry numerous questions and uncertainties still exist. Different numerical and analytical models have been developed attempting to meet this demand. For the larger part they describe the rheological...master thesis 2016

Van de Ree, T.H.B. (author)One of the biggest uncertainties affecting the operations of mine and land reclamation activities is related to tailings / slurry management, for which the processes of beach deposition play a critical role. Deposited tailings produce both sheet and channelised flow, causing varying velocity profiles which lead to differential settlement. This...master thesis 2015
