Probabilistic downtime analysis for complex marine projects: A state-of-the-art model based on Markov theory to generate binary workability sequences for sequential operations

A marine operations encounters downtime if its operational limit is exceeded during project execution. Accurate information about the expected downtime during a marine project is important information in the tender phase of such a project. The purpose of this thesis is therefore to give insight in the available methods for downtime analysis in...

Scoping study of `Coastal Squeeze' phenomenon, Ayeyarwady Delta, Myanmar

Coastal squeeze is defined as the reduction in the space of coastal habitats to operate [1] and it is an important cause for (amongst others) coastline retreat, an increase in flood risk and salinity intrusion. Land use changes, such as deforestation and urbanization, reduce the space of natural habitats such as mangrove forests. This causes a...

Fieldwork Coastal Engineering 2014

This report is the final part of the course CIE5318 Fieldwork Hydraulic Engineering at the TU Delft. In this course a group of international students from the TU Delft a and the Varna Free University visit the coast of the Black Sea. During their weeks visit they do field research in Varna, Bulgaria and visit the harbor of Constanta, Romania....
