Stability of morphological cells to dredging-dumping activities

The Westerschelde estuary in the South-West of the Netherlands displays two meandering flood and ebb channels separated by shoals. The system of flood, ebb channel and shoal between two channel crossings form a morphological cell. The stability of the serial cell system formed by the Westerschelde is important for the navigation route to the...

Morphodynamics of estuarine navigation channel

The port of Kandla, which is situated in the north west of India and is subject to a large tidal variation of about 5 metres, is preparing a major expansion plan. The capacity of the harbour will be increased in two ways. Firstly the construction of several berths and jetties will allow more ships to be handled on a yearly basis. Secondly...

Modellering morfodynamisch gedrag van de Drempel van Hansweert

Onderdeel van dit project is het simuleren van het morfologisch gedrag van ren van de drempels, de Drempel van Hansweert, met een morfologisch computermodel. Dit verslag beschrijft de eerste van twee fasen van dit projekt waarin de modelbouw en de simulatie van de huidige situatie wordt beschreven. In de tweede fase zullen diverse...
