Strong ocean currents such as the Agulhas Current near South-Africa are alleged to generate freak waves due to the enhancement of wave energy under counter-current conditions. It has been suggested that such enhancement is due to current-induced refraction but it is actually the result of a balance between many processes. To understand this...

A probabilistic model for calculating oil spill volume in sea tanker accidents is presented. Accidents are specified as either collisions or groundings. Based on existing accident data, damage size is estimated given an accident. Using damage size a probability of rupture is calculated. Finally, outflow volume is determined.

After Katrina flooded New Orleans, California was identified as the next area where such a major disaster could happen. Situated between the Sierra Nevada and coastal mountain ranges Californias Central Valley is characterized by its flatness and dominated by agriculture as well as large cities as Sacramento. The Sacramento River and San Joaquin...

Studies underscore the significant reserve potential of the Arctic region: an estimated 25 percent of potential oil and gas reserves, onshore and offshore, is believed to be located in the Northern Hemispheres Arctic region. Although these areas already have been under consideration for over 30 years, technical difficulties have put a threshold...

Floods are a threat to millions of people who are living in lowlands. A lot of research is done about flood risk analysis. A general expression of flood risk is the probability of flooding times the consequences. This graduation research focuses on the probabilities of failure and leaves the consequences out of the comparison. The objective is...

From the several existing empirical equations that describe the planform of a bay, the Parabolic Bay Shape Equation (PBSE) is the only one that explicitly assesses an equilibrium bay shape. Research has been performed on the uncertainties regarding the static equilibrium planform (SEP) plotted by this equation but results have been more of a...

De aandacht voor veiligheid is de laatste jaren enorm toegenomen. In Nederland is dit voornamelijk aangewakkerd door de cafand in Volendam (2001) en de vuurwerkramp in Enschede (2000). Binnen de transportsector hebben zich in het buitenland calamiteiten voorgedaan, zoals de brand in een skitrein in Kaprun (Oostenrijk) en de metrobrand in Daegu ...

The discovery of great oil reserves located under the northern part of the Caspian Sea has lead to an increased interest in the wave climate in this area. Statistical analysis of wave measurements is insufficient to determine reliable design wave conditions on the northern part of the Caspian Sea, because the amount of available wave...

Failure of coastal protection due to flooding is mainly caused by a combination of high water level and waves. If one considers these as independent variables, the probability of failure can be calculated easily, but this would be an incorrect assumption. These two variables are de-pendent, so a method suitable for multivariate statistics is to...

De observatiemethode wordt gedefinieerd als een geegreerd bouw- en ontwerpproces waarbij de uiteindelijke bouwwijze of het uiteindelijke ontwerp wordt vastgesteld door gebruik te maken van meetgegevens tijdens de bouwfase (naar Van de Kamp en Van Baars, 2003). Hoewel de observatiemethode in de geotechniek al vaker is toegepast en volgens...

Turbidity is recognised as one of the major environmental problems of dredging. To get a handle on this problem the Dutch dredging industry (VBKO) commissioned a research project to develop software capable of predicting how much sediment is released into suspension during dredging operations. Major field measurement exercises are carried out in...
