Visser, R. (author)
Although shoreface nourishments are an increasingly interesting option for coastal managers to counteract coastal erosion, their design is often highly empirical. A better understanding of the way shoreface nourishments interact with the initial beach profile may help to reduce the degree of empiricism in nourishment design. Literature study has...

After decades of coastal erosion in the north-west area of the Island of Texel, the shore-normal `Eierlandse Dam` had been built in 1995. The dam, situated in the outer delta of the Eierlandse Gat tidal inlet, resulted in a remarkable short-term morphological development of the adjacent coast. Four years following completion of the dam, large...

Breaching of embankments has recently drawn more and more attention due to its importance in the development of early warning systems for embankment failures, in the evacuation plans of people at risk, in the design method of embankments based on a risk-approach, etc. The erosion process observed during embankment breaching tests in the...

This paper describes the hydrodynamic erosion process of undisturbed clay due to the turbulent flow, based on theoretical analysis and experimental results. The undisturbed clay has the unique and complicated characteristics of cohesive force among clay particles, which are highly different from disturbed clay and non-cohesive sand. Based on...

The use of breach models includes two tasks: predicting breach characteristics and estimating flow through the breach. Strengths and weaknesses as well as opportunities and threats of different simplified and detailed physically-based breach models are listed following theoretical and practical criteria. According to the theoretical criteria,...

In this syllabus an overview is given of the basic knowledge, which is required to prepare interventions in rivers and to estimate the consequences of these interventions. The utilization of the river for human purposes and the knowledge of hydraulics, sediment transport and morphology will be treated. At the end of this syllabus some practice...

Deze syllabus beoogt een overzicht te geven van de basiskennis die nodig is om ingrepen in de rivier voor te bereiden en de gevolgen ervan te kunnen inschatten. Er wordt ingegaan op het gebruik dat de mens maakt van de rivier en op de kennis van de hydraulica, het sedimenttransport en de morfologie. Aan het einde van het dictaat worden...

Convential models for the erosion of non-cohesive sediments overestimate the erosion rate induced by high flow velocities. These high flow velocities occur, for instance, in breaching of embankments or dunes (flow velocities up to 10 m/s) or in jetting sand with a trailing suction hopper dredger (30 to 60 m/s). At these very large flow...

A new process-based approach is introduced for a more efficient computation of the overflow-induced growth of an erosional channel in a noncohesive homogeneous narrow landmass such as the breach growth in a sand-dike. The approach is easy to incorporate in a 1D/2DV morphodynamic model to compute the channel growth both vertically and laterally....

Along the North Sea coast, water levels are rising and waves are intensifying due to climate change. The best scientific evidence suggests that both phenomena are likely to accelerate over the coming decades. In some North Sea coastal areas also land is sinking and tidal heights and rates of erosion are increasing. This means that the risk of...

To increase physical insight into wave overwash processes at low-crested beach barriers, wave overtopping discharge events rather than the conventional average overtopping discharge need to be quantified. Also, in order to make intelligent use of the many empirical formulations on wave overtopping discharge at breakwaters from literature, a...

A hydrodynamic numerical model is formulated to describe the breach erosion process of sandy barriers. The breach flow is based on the system of unsteady shallow water equations, which is solved using a robust upwind numerical approach in conjunction with the Finite Volume Method (FVM). The hydraulic jump is considered as part of the breach flow...

For management of coastal breaching hazards it is critical to be able to assess the potential of coastal barrier breaching as a result of wave actions during storm surges (wave overwash). This phenomenon is known as the breach initiation phase; the mechanisms behind this are not very well understood. In the present study, laboratory experiments...

Visser, R. (author)
Strandhoofden zijn lange smalle dammen die langs de kust worden aangelegd om structurele erosie te bestrijden. Door hun lengte onderbreken ze het natuurlijke transport van zand langs de kust geheel of gedeeltelijk. Voor het ontwerp van strandhoofden is met name de lengte en de onderlinge afstand van belang. Het is echter moeilijk om vooraf in te...

Dit rapport bevat een beschrijving van een studie naar de grootte van de bres die in de Afsluitdijk zal kunnen ontstaan nadat deze dijk is doorgebroken en mar de resulterende verhoging van het IJsselmeerpeil. Het doel van de onderhavige studie is een veilige (dus maximale) voorspelling van de totale te verwachten bresgrootte in de Afsluitdijk na...
