Kroon, J. (author), de Schipper, M.A. (author), de Vries, S. (author), Aarninkhof, S.G.J. (author)Sandy nourishments can provide additional sediment to the coastal system to maintain its recreational or safety function under rising sea levels. These nourishments can be implemented at sandy beach systems, but can also be used to reinforce gray coastal infrastructure (e.g., dams, dikes, seawalls). The Hondsbossche Dunes project is a combined...journal article 2022

Huisman, B.J.A. (author), Van Thiel De Vries, J.S.M. (author), Walstra, D.J.R. (author), Roelvink, J.A. (author), Ranasinghe, R.W.M.R.J.B. (author), Stive, M.J.F. (author)Understanding of the behaviour of coastline perturbations at soft-coastlines is essential for modelling coastal evolution at decadal time scales. Many coastline models do, for example, implicitly assume dominant diffusive behaviour of coastline features. The validity of this assumption is investigated for the Dutch coast on the basis of data on...conference paper 2013

Baart, F. (author)This thesis answers the question "How can we show and improve our confidence in coastal forecasts?", by providing four examples of common coastal forecasts. The first example shows how to improve the estimate of the one in ten thousand year storm-surge level. The three dimensional reconstruction, based on paintings, shows that structural erosion...doctoral thesis 2013

Muller, M.C. (author), Roelvink, D. (author), Luijendijk, A.P. (author), De Vries, S. (author), Van Thiel de Vries, J.S.M. (author)In this paper, the aeolian transport model DUNE (Sauermann et al., 2001, Kroy et al., 2002) that describes important features and dynamics of typical desert dunes, is extended such that it can be applied in sandy coastal areas. Initial tests explore the limitations of the model in coastal areas after which adaptations are proposed and...conference paper 2012

Van Bentum, K.M. (author)The Lagos coast has been suffering high rates of erosion since the construction of three harbour moles, i.e. the West Mole, East Mole and the Training Mole, at the tidal inlet connecting the Lagos Lagoon to the South Atlantic Ocean. To provide for a permanent erosion mitigation measure and to create residential and commercial area for circa 400...master thesis 2012

Van Walsem, T.D.B. (author)The deep foreshore is the part of the cross-shore profile that is between 8 m and 20 m deep. Indications exist that this area might be deepening. In this report the long term morphological consequences of this possible trend on the sandy coast of Holland (the stretch between Hook of Holland and Den Helder, excluding artificial defences) are...master thesis 2011

Hopmans, R. (author), Van Kessel, L. (author), Lendering, K. (author), Oud, M. (author), Tromp, R. (author)The harbor of Surgidero de Batabano is a harbor that lies in the Gulf of Batabano in the South-Western part of Cuba. It serves as a connection between the main land of Cuba and the islands 'Isla de la Juventud' and Cayo Largo. The Batabano harbor suffers from sediment accretion. The accretion of sediment is harmful to port operations, since the...student report 2011

Van der Woerdt, W. (author), Van den Bosch, I. (author), Heerema, R. (author), Ruijs, M. (author)Master project report. The hydraulic efficiency of the river Araranguá will be increased by the construction of jetties at the mouth of the river. The river tends to migrate from south to north which decreases the hydraulic efficiency and causes flooding upstream during events of high discharge. To stop the migration the construction of jetties...student report 2009

Van den Heuvel, S. (author), Hoekstra, R. (author), De Zeeuw, R. (author), Zoon, A. (author)Master project report. Piçarras is one of the touristic beaches of Santa Catarina state in Brazil. Piçarras beach is a headland bay beach. In the bay irregular features like an island, rocky outcrops and shoals are present influencing wave propagation. In the south Piçarras is bounded by Piçarras river. The river mouth has been fixated in 1970,...student report 2008

Lam, N.T. (author), Stive, M.J.F. (author), Verhagen, H.J. (author), Wang, Z.B. (author)Morphodynamics of a tidal inlet system on a micro-tidal coast in a tropical monsoon influenced region is modelled and discussed. Effects of tides, waves, river flows and system configuration on the inlet morphologies are investigated with the aid of process-based state-of-the-art numerical models. Seasonal and episodic behaviour of the inlet...conference paper 2007

Vissser, R. (author)The shoreline develops on several time scales. At some places along the coast the amount of sand in a cross-section decreases continuously and the shoreline shifts landward. This phenomenon is called structural erosion and is often caused by an increasing longshore sediment transport along the coast. When it is necessary to protect the coast, e...master thesis 2002

Jörissen, J.G.L. (author)Als gevolg van natuurlijke processen, zoals getijde en golven, is een kustomgeving voortdurend aan verandering onderhevig. Hierdoor is een zandige kust niet altijd stabiel en kan er op sommige plaatsen een achteruitgaande kustlijn worden aangetroffen. Indien zo'n achteruitgaande kustlijn een structureel karakter heeft, wordt dat vaak veroorzaakt...master thesis 2001

Veuger, A. (author)The area of interest in this study is the closed part of the Holland coast. This is the coastal stretch from Den Helder to Hoek van Holland. Here the coast is not interrupted by tidal inlets like at the Waddeneilanden or Zeeland.Due to erosion and accretion the coast is not always stable. Many investigations have been done on these phenomena...master thesis 2001

Tönis, I. (author)Het Haringvliet is een zeegat dat deel uitmaakt van het Deltagebied. Vanaf 1950 zijn er een aantal grote ingrepen gedaan in de monding van het Haringvliet, zoals de aanleg van de Maasvlakte en de Slufterdam en de bouw van de Haringvlietdam met spuisluizen. Door deze ingrepen is de hydrodynamische situatie en daarmee de morfologie ingrijpend...master thesis 2000

Van der Kraan, M. (author)Deze afstudeeropdracht betreft het onderzoek naar het mogelijke versteilen van de Hollandse kust. Het versteilen van de kust is het verdiepingsverschijnsel waarbij de dieptelijnen kustwaarts verschuiven. Deze verschuivingen van de dieptelijnen gaan gepaard met zandverlies op dieper water waardoor het kustprofielletterlijk steiler wordt. Dit...master thesis 1999
