The coastal zone is one of the most dynamic environments on our planet and is much affected by global change, especially sea-level rise. Coastal environments harbour valuable ecosystems, but they are also hugely important from a societal point of view. This book, which draws on the expertise of 21 leading international coastal scientists,...

Maintaining the microbial quality in distribution systems and connected installations remains a challenge for the water supply companies all over the world, despite many years of research. This book identifies the main concerns and knowledge gaps related to regrowth and stimulate cooperation in future research. Microbial Growth in Drinking Water...

When do traffi c jams emerge? Can we predict, given certain demand levels, when queuing will occur, how long the queues will be, how they will propagate in space and time and how long it will take for the congestion to resolve? Why does an overloaded traffic network underperform? This chapter gives a basic introduction to traffic flow theory...

The number of road crashes, fatalities and injuries is considered unacceptably high in many countries. This can be derived, for example, from the fact that the European Commission (EC, 2010) announced the ambition of halving the overall number of road deaths in the European Union by 2020, starting from 2010. At this stage a European target for...

The subsurface image obtained from seismic data can be biased by the acquisition geometry: it contains an acquisition footprint, which can obstruct the subsurface characterization. So the acquisition geometry for a seismic experiment should be designed in such a way that it allows high-quality images and fulfills the criteria for the reservoir...

The environment in the Yellow River Delta (YRD) is under stress from large socio-economic pressures, leading to air, soil and water pollution. A Sino-Dutch project the Sustainable Development YRD project (1995 – 1997) was undertaken with the principle goal of contributing to the sustainable, long-term development of the Yellow River Delta....

Backward piping is the process of channel formation in a sandy aquifer under river dikes. During high water periods this process manifests itself by the formation of sand boils. A long history of cases and experiments has contributed to the insights into this phenomenon and has improved the ability to predict the safety of levees.

Van der Put, T.A.C.M. (author)
This chapter discusses the theory of fracture mechanics based on the flat elliptical crack; the derivation of the mixed "mode I - II" - interaction equation, with the relations between the mode I and mode II stress intensities and energy release rates, based on an orthotropic-isotropic transformation of the Airy stress function; the derivation...

This chapter discusses the design aspects of estuary and river closures and those of reservoir dams and certain other hydraulic structures. The focus of this chapter is on closures, not on the situation after the closure has been completed.
