Vander Cam, Quentin (author)
The tidal channels in the Eastern Scheldt basin, are out of equilibrium due to the reduced tidal prism as a consequence of the construction of the Storm Surge Barrier in 1986. An estimated 500 million cubic meters of sediment is required in order to reduce the cross-sectional areas of the tidal channels such that the system reaches a new...

The lower Ems river suffers from hyper-turbid conditions. These conditions are caused by channel deepening over the last 50 years, resulting in an asymmetrical tidal wave. This asymmetry has resulted in an increased<br/>import of sediment into the Ems river. Recently some effort has gone into determining whether or not the local tidal barrier ...

Estuaries have always been important for mankind and therefore it is essential to have a good understanding of the flow and sediment dynamics there. The goal of this thesis is twofold. One objective is to use an existing model to gain a more thorough understanding of the flow dynamics in an estuary. The second objective is to extend the model...

During construction of breakwaters, adverse weather conditions can result in damage, in the form of reshaping and loss of material to the open work fronts of the structure. Based on literature research, analysis of work methods, analysis of damage to older breakwater projects and interviews, it was deduced that during construction, the open work...

In Chile, the Biobío river separates the cities of Concepción and San Pedro de la Paz. Bridges crossing the Biobío river ensure a fast and dependable connection, which contributes to the transport options in the region. With the Biobío region being the second largest contributor to the country's GDP, an unreliable transport network is highly...

Using an idealized width-averaged model, the influence of spring-neap cycles on the transport and trapping of suspended fine sediment in tide-dominated estuaries is investigated. To this end we introduce a multiple time scale expansion. This provides a mathematically sound argument for treating the fast ebb-flood cycle and the slow spring-neap...

Vietnam is one of the five countries that is severely affected by the consequences of climate change. The extreme weather conditions and the increase of the sea level results in floods in the Mekong Delta, located in the South of Vietnam. Can Tho city, found in the heart of the Mekong Delta, is one of the cities that copes with water related...

Intertidal flats and salt marshes can protect hinterland against wave energy and flooding by tides or storm surges. Thus, the development of tidal flats is important to foresee. The presence of specific small scale features could indicate a certain development and large scale morphological shape. The shape is a predictor for development and it...

Flushing basins have been used at several locations in Germany, Belgium, and the Netherlands in the past centuries to maintain the navigational depths of harbour channels. These locations are not in use anymore or are only partly responsible for channel maintenance. This thesis encompasses a study to optimize the geometric parameters of a...

Dynamic analysis of the stinger hang-off system cable forces using ship motion data of Audacia. Already for some time the desire exists to acquire insight into the phenomenon of stinger uplift. This is the situation where external forces and motions acting on the ship, stinger cause the hang-off cables to have no or barely any cable tension....

FLNG cooling water outfalls can be characterized as high momentum buoyant jets, relatively close to the surface. The buoyant jet trajectories, spreading rates and surface distribution very much depend on the jet outflow characteristics. A study with the CFD software OpenFOAM has been carried out into the mixing and transport processes of buoyant...

Vegetation in coastal areas plays an important role in its environment. In addition, vegetation can also be utilized for coastal protection. Incoming wave energy could be effectively attenuated by the upstanding vegetation plants. The reduced wave energy results in stabilized seabed and harmonious environment in coastal zones. Nowadays, an...

The main goal of this study is to determe the relation between very oblique wave attack and overtopping, and to accordingly adjust the formulae for oblique wave attack. The required knowledge to be able to read and understand this report is of a Bachelor in civil engineering level. All around the world different types of structures are built to...

Multidisciplinary Master Project In 2006, the Greater Concepción (Chile) experienced major flooding of the River Biobio with millions of dollars worth of damage as a consequence. This event was previously seen as a 1 in a 100 year event by the authorities. These conditions, however, are calculated to have a return period of about 20 years...

Part I: On the time scales of wave processes. To systematically improve the SWAN model a study on the wave physics in a tidal inlet was carried out. The third-generation SWAN model was used to compute the wave processes in a tidal inlet for storm conditions. The computed wave processes are propagation (shoaling, refraction and frequency shifting...

The present study considers long-term morphologic development of the inlets forming the Western Dutch Wadden Sea. This concerns analysis of field measurements carried out since closure of the Zuider Sea (1932) as well as an assessment of possible imporvements of long-term morphological prodictions made for this area using ASMITA. From field...

Weir is the construction widely used in hydraulic engineering. It is very important to investigate the behaviors of the flows over a weir. In general when water streams over a weir it behaves various flow patterns according to different flow conditions. Different flow patterns results in different inference on the water level profile and the...

Barrier island coasts are a common feature in many parts of the world. An example is the Wadden coast of The Netherlands, Germany and Denmark. These coasts consist of barrier islands separated by tidal inlets with at the landward side tidal basins.Characteristic for the Wadden Sea is that the tidal basins are not completely separated,but are...

The North Sea is a shallow sea on the Eurasian continental shelf. This study focuses on the temporal development of the tidal range in the southern part of the North Sea. Records of annual tidal range data from gauging stations along the Dutch coast show in general an increasing trend perturbed by random fluctuations. Changes in tidal ranges are...
