This report presents the joint KNMI and Deltares Plan of Approach for the wind modelling activities for the coming years, with the goal to determine time and spatially varying extreme wind fields. These are required as input for the 2017 safety assessment of the primary water defences. The objectives of the project have been defined as follows:...

The current computations of the Hydraulic Boundary Conditions rely mostly on the distribution of the basic variables at the peak of the storms. As a means of improving the quality of the numerical modelling with a view towards the 2017 assessment, it is envisaged that the numerical models (e.g. the wave model) will in the future use time and...

In order to assess their relative merits in the context of the determinalion of Hydraulic Boundary Conditions (HBC), the Annual Maxima / Generalized Extreme Value distribution (AM/GEV) and Peaks over Threshold / Generalized Pareto Oislribution (POT/GPO) approaches are compared in terms of Iheir accuracy, as measured by mean square errors, in...

Uncertainties are introduced in probabilistic risk analysis when we deal with parameters that are not deterministic (exactly known) but that are unknown instead, hence uncertain. This report describes how uncertainties influence the reliability of flood defence systems. The purpose of the study is to identify all uncertainties that influence the...

This Deliverable presents a summary of results obtained in Task 2: Estimation of Extremes of the EU (Framework Program 6) FLOODsite project. The report deals with the estimation of extremes for risk assessment in fluvial, coastal and estuarine environments. The approach, techniques and conclusions are, however, general enough to be of...

There is fragmentation and gaps in the approach to dealing with the required improvements to the wind models. Coordination is required for a balanced and efficient approach. The intended purpose of this document is to be a plan for this coordination. This approach can be embedded in the SBW project at diverse crucial points that require...

Dune erosion during storms is a dynamical process. Failure of a dune to protect the hinterland flooding depends on the loads (sea level, wave height) and duration of these loads. This study investigates the description of the statistics of the load histories of extreme storms for load modelling on dunes.

A nonparametric bivariate density estimation technique is developed employing tensor product B-splines to provide a concise wave data summary. Most of the existing nonparametric techniques involve a certain level of subjectivity in the choice of smoothing parameters. A criterion based on the least squares concept is proposed to remove the...
