Fu, C. (author), Popescu, I. (author), Wang, C. (author), Mynett, A.E. (author), Zhang, F. (author)During winter the Yellow River in China is frequently subjected to ice flood disasters. Possible dike-breaking due to ice floods poses a serious threat to the part of the region located along the river, in particular the Ning-Meng reach (including Ningxia Hui and the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region). Due to its special geographical location and...journal article 2013

Wang, J. (author), González-Jorge, H. (author), Lindenbergh, R. (author), Arias-Sánchez, P. (author), Menenti, M. (author)Roads play an indispensable role as part of the infrastructure of society. In recent years, society has witnessed the rapid development of laser mobile mapping systems (LMMS) which, at high measurement rates, acquire dense and accurate point cloud data. This paper presents a way to automatically estimate the required excavation volume when...journal article 2013

Wang, X. (author), Xing, F. (author), Zhang, M. (author), Han, N. (author), Qian, Z. (author)The recovery behavior for strength and impermeability of cementitious composites embedded with organic microcapsules was investigated in this study. Mortar specimens were formed by mixing the organic microcapsules and a catalyst with cement and sand. The mechanical behaviors of flexural and compression strength were tested. The results showed...journal article 2013

(author)During the last decades, large-scale land use changes took place in the Hailiutu River catchment, a semi-arid area in northwest China. These changes had significant impacts on the water resources in the area. Insights into groundwater and surface water interactions and vegetation-water dependencies help to understand these impacts and formulate...journal article 2013

Wang, L. (author), Van Gelder, P.H.A.J.M. (author), Vrijling, J.K. (author), Ranasinghe, R.W.M.R.J.B. (author), Maskey, S. (author)To guarantee a safe flood defence in a changing environment, the adaptation to climate change needs to be considered in the design of river dikes. However, the large uncertainty in the projections of future climate leads to varied estimations of future flood probability. How to cope with the uncertainties in future flood probability under...conference paper 2013

Su, M. (author), Stive, M.J.F. (author), Zhang, C.K. (author), Yao, P. (author), Chen, Y.P. (author), Wang, Z.B. (author)A 2D large-scale tidal wave model is set up for the Chinese marginal seas and it is proved to simulate the tidal motion in this large domain well. Based on the model, sensitivity analyses have been carried out to investigate the influences of various factors on the tidal wave system. According to the results, the effect of river discharges and...conference paper 2013

Eelkema, M. (author), Wang, Z.B. (author), Stive, M.J.F. (author)The ebb-tidal delta of the Eastern Scheldt tidal inlet has been under the influence of a storm surge barrier for the past 25 years. This barrier caused a strong decrease in average tidal currents through the inlet. The morphological response of the ebb-tidal delta is characterized by several different processes: (1) an overall decrease in...conference paper 2013

Yao, P. (author), Wang, Z.B. (author), Zhang, C.K. (author), Su, M. (author), Chen, Y.P. (author), Stive, M.J.F. (author)One of the characteristics of the radial sand ridge field (RSRF) in the South Yellow Sea off the Jiangsu coast is the distinctive radial tidal current field. Although many studies have focused on the hydrodynamic environment around radial sand ridges, the knowledge on the genesis of the radial tidal current is still in a very basic stage. This...conference paper 2013

Wang, Y. (author)Concrete is one of the most important construction materials in the world. However, Portland cement which is one of the constituents of concrete is responsible for about 5-10% of global CO2 emission. From sustainability point of view, therefore, it is important to search for materials which can be used to reduce or to replace Portland cement in...doctoral thesis 2013

Li, W. (author), De Vriend, H.J. (author), Wang, Z. (author), Van Maren, D.S. (author)High-resolution morphological modeling of fluvial processes with complex, rapidly varying flows has been limited so far by model accuracy or computational efficiency. One of the most widely used numerical algorithms is based on the total variation diminishing method, solved by either upwind or centered approaches. An upwind scheme preserves high...journal article 2013

Huisman, B.J.A. (author), Wang, Z.B. (author), De Ronde, J.G. (author), Stronkhorst, J. (author), Sprengers, C.J. (author)Coastal zone managers in the Netherlands require new dedicated tools for the assessment of the long-term impacts of coastal maintenance policies. The policies need to be evaluated on the impacts on multiple coastal functions in order to be able to optimize the performance of such strategies. This paper provides the technical backgrounds of such...conference paper 2013

Eelkema, M. (author), Wang, Z.B. (author), Hibma, A. (author)The Eastern Scheldt ebb-tidal delta morphology has been adapting for the past 25 years in response to the construction of the Eastern Scheldt storm-surge barrier in 1986. As a result of the barrier, there has been a decrease in tidal amplitudes, volumes, and average flow velocities, and there is hardly any sediment exchange through the barrier....conference paper 2012
