Ten Veldhuis, J.A.E. (author), Ochoa-Rodriguez, S. (author), Gires, A. (author), van Assel, J. (author), Ichiba, A. (author), Kroll, S. (author), Wang, L. (author), Tchiguirinskaia, I. (author), Schertzer, D. (author), Willems, P. (author)Cities are particularly vulnerable to rainfall-generated floods that are typically characterised by their rapid onset and localised nature. This implies that precipitation and catchment information need to be available at high resolution to reliably predict hydrological response and potential flooding. On the contrary, urban areas constitute a...conference paper 2015

(author), Schertzer, D. (author), Willems, P. (author)In this study high resolution precipitation data are used, derived from polarimetric X-band radar at 100 m, 1 min resolution. The data are used to study the impact of different space-time resolutions of rainfall input on urban hydrodynamic modelling response for 9 storms, in 7 urban catchments. The results show that hydrodynamic response...conference paper 2015

Lindenbergh, R.C. (author), Berthold, D. (author), Sirmacek, B. (author), Herrero-Huerta, M. (author), Wang, J. (author), Ebersbach, D. (author)In urbanized Western Europe trees are considered an important component of the built-up environment. This also means that there is an increasing demand for tree inventories. Laser mobile mapping systems provide an efficient and accurate way to sample the 3D road surrounding including notable roadside trees. Indeed, at, say, 50 km/h such systems...conference paper 2015

Wang, J. (author), Lindenbergh, R.C. (author), Menenti, M. (author)Laser scanning has become a well established surveying solution for obtaining 3D geo-spatial information on objects and environment. Nowadays scanners acquire up to millions of points per second which makes point cloud huge. Laser scanning is widely applied from airborne, carborne and stable platforms, resulting in point clouds obtained at...conference paper 2015

Wang, H. (author), Markine, V.L. (author), Dollevoet, R.P.B.J. (author), Shevtsov, I.Y. (author)Transition zones in railway tracks are locations with considerable changes in the vertical stiffness of the rail support. Typically they are located near engineering structures, such as bridges, culverts, tunnels and level crossings. In such locations, the differential settlement always exists and continually grows without proper maintenance....conference paper 2015

Wang, M. (author), Daamen, W. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author), Van Arem, B. (author)The vision of intelligent vehicles traveling in road networks has prompted numerous concepts to control future traffic flow, one of which is the in-vehicle actuation of traffic control signals. The key of this concept is using intelligent vehicles as actuators for traffic control systems, replacing the traditional road-side systems. Under this...conference paper 2015

Tene, M. (author), Hajibeygi, H. (author), Wang, Y. (author), Tchelepi, H.A. (author)An adaptive Algebraic Multiscale Solver for Compressible (C-AMS) flow in heterogeneous oil reservoirs is developed. Based on the recently developed AMS [Wang et al., 2014] for incompressible linear flows, the C-AMS extends the algebraic formulation of the multiscale methods for compressible (nonlinear) flows. Several types of basis functions ...conference paper 2014

Wang, Y. (author), Hajibeygi, H. (author), Tchelepi, H.A. (author)The MultiScale Finite-Volume (MSFV) method is known to produce non-monotone solutions. The causes of the non-monotone solutions are identified and connected to the local flux across the boundaries of primal coarse cells induced by the basis functions. We propose a monotone MSFV (m-MSFV) method based on a local stencil-fix that guarantees...conference paper 2014

Yao, P. (author), Stive, M.J.F. (author), Zhang, C. (author), Su, M. (author), Wang, Z.B. (author)In the South Yellow Sea off the Jiangsu coast, there exists a special type of sand bodies, which are known as radial sand ridge field (RSRF). One of the characteristics of this area is the distinctive radial tidal current field.

(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

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
