Kok, L.R. (author)In this master thesis the feasibility of FRP in large hydraulic structures is investigated, specifically the feasibility of FRP in lifting gates. This thesis consists of a literature and case study. In the literature study the possibilities of FRP as construction material are mentioned. In the case study a lifting gate is designed for a storm...master thesis 2013

Dupuits, E.J.C. (author)Dredge plumes and ecology have become increasingly intertwined in recent history; one of the more prominent reasons behind this is the influence of clouds of fine sediments released in the open water due to dredging (`dredge plumes') on for `sensitive receivers' such as coral, seagrass and mangroves. An Environmental Risk Assessment (ERA) in...master thesis 2012

Reijmerink, S.P. (author)Volgens de Waterwet dienen elke zes jaar de Hydraulische Randvoorwaarden (HR) te worden vastgesteld. De HR bestaan uit hoogwaterstanden en golfrandvoorwaarden voor de toetsing van waterkeringen gegeven overschrijdingskansen welke in de wet zijn vastgesteld. Ook voor waterkeringen in havens en afgeschermde gebieden dienen de HR vastgesteld te...master thesis 2012

Wolters, H.J. (author)A committee of Civieltechnisch Centrum Uitvoering Research en Regelgeving (CUR) is currently (2012) working on the update of the handbook Quay Walls (CUR 211). In the past the partial safety factors in this book were derived using a spring model, but new developments enable to use Finite Element Methods (FEM) to model sheet-pile structures and...master thesis 2012

Den Bieman, J.P. (author)Barrier islands are important features in the coastal zone, among others because they shelter the mainland from waves and storm surge. Thus, the degradation of barrier islands can pose a threat to coastal safety. Hence, there is a societal demand for understanding and predicting barrier island evolution. High energy events, such as storms and...master thesis 2012

De Bruijn, R.A. (author)After the storm surge of 1953, the Dutch Delta project was initiated in order to protect the southwestern part of The Netherlands. A storm surge barrier in front of the Oosterschelde and various dams at the back of the estuary were constructed. These interventions led to a large change of the hydrodynamics of the Oosterschelde: a large decrease...master thesis 2012

Spruijt, P. (author)Guidance structures are built in the vicinity of a sluice complex to serve as berth for ships waiting for the sluice to be available. The structure is loaded by the ship and should stop the ship without being damaged. The design of a guidance structure did not significantly change over the last decades. Therefore one could talk about a...master thesis 2012

Vilaplana Domingo, A.M. (author)Richards Bay Port, located in the East Coast of South Africa, was built during the 1970s. Two rubble mound breakwaters were constructed to protect the deep-water entrance channel and create a sheltered area for the vessels. Since the completion of these breakwaters in 1976, they have withstood several major storms, including cyclones that have...master thesis 2012

Van Doorn, R. (author)Research into hydraulic loads by a bow thruster. The hydraulic loads on the slope at an open quay construction on piles is investigated. The propeller (bow thruster) jet induces hydraulic loads on the bed, which could result in scour holes and damage to the quay construction. Performed scale model tests provide details about the hydraulic loads...master thesis 2012

El Hamdi, A. (author)Siltation of harbour basins and navigation channels is a serious problem in the port of Rotterdam as well in many other harbours all over the world. Due to siltation, basins and channels require frequent maintenance dredging to guarantee safe navigational depths. The costs associated with these dredging activities are quite high. To keep the...master thesis 2012

Schoen, J.J. (author)In 2008 presenteerde de Deltacommissie haar bevindingen om Nederland ook in de toekomst waterbestendig te houden. Aan van de aanbevelingen was het verhogen van het IJsselmeerpeil met anderhalve meter te verhogen, met verstrekkende gevolgen voor de verschillende aan het IJsselmeer liggende steden. Een van deze steden is Lelystad, dat in haar...bachelor thesis 2011

Kool, J.J. (author)Jetties are designed by the guidance of the deterministic standards. These standards are based on the standardized values of safety factors (semi-probabilistic) and use the load and the capacity of every element as a standard value. The interaction of every separate element as a part of a whole is not taken in to account. The use of...master thesis 2011

De Vlieger, J. (author)De Maas kent een aantal waterbouwkundige kunstwerken die het einde van hun ontwerp levensduur van 50 tot 100 jaar naderen. Het is daardoor van belang te bepalen wat de huidige conditie van de kunstwerken is om de betrouwbaarheid van de Maascorridor te waarborgen. Om de huidige conditie van de kunstwerken te bepalen, dienen de constructieve...master thesis 2011

Van Buuren, P.J. (author)This thesis studies cost estimation and investment decisions under cost uncertainty of large construction projects. The combination of these two topics intends to satisfy the Master’s theses of Civil Engineering at the Delft University of Technology and Quantitative Finance (Econometrics) at the Erasmus University Rotterdam. The first part...master thesis 2011

Van der Hoeven, R. (author)In many coastal engineering problems the application of coastal structures to resolve these problems seems to be a proper solution. In a lot of cases, however, the implementation of coastal structures does not lead to the expected situation. Erosion management operations may have unwanted impacts on a coastal system. Decisions on the most...master thesis 2010

Van de Leur, K. (author)It is common practice to protect subsea pipelines by embedding them into the soil. Trenches can be made before or after the pipelines have been laid. In the latter case, the excavation process is called post-trenching. The essence of post-trenching, as handled in this thesis, is erosion of sand by a water-jet. The literature study focused on the...master thesis 2010
