This thesis aims to contribute to the understanding of how waves interact with soil. It is crucial for various applications in Civil Engineering to analyze the behaviour of soil and to understand the physics behind it. This master thesis contributes to this understanding via studying the impact of the boundary conditions on the model results...

Spectral information of coastal waves and the associated statistical parameters (e.g., the significant wave height and mean wave period) over large spatial scales is essential for many applications (e.g., coastal safety assessments, coastal management and developments, etc.). This demand explains the necessity for accurate yet effective...

When a large number of solitons dominates the dynamics of a system, scientists describe this collective behaviour of solitons as a soliton gas. Soliton gases are currently the subject of intense practical and theoretical investigations. The existence of soliton gases has been confirmed in experiments, but is not clear what kind of sea states...

<b>Research question</b><br/>The topic of this dissertation is the numerical computation of the forward and inverse Non-linear Fourier Transform (NFT) for the Korteweg–de Vries equation (KdV), for sampled signals that decay sufficiently fast on both sides. With NFTs certain non-linear Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) can be solved in a way...

We propose a novel method to determine the average water depth from shallow, weakly nonlinear water waves that are approximated by the Korteweg-de Vries equation. Our identification method only requires free-surface measurements from two wave gauges aligned in the direction of wave propagation. The method we propose is based on comparing...

Several non-linear fluid mechanical processes, such as wave propagation in shallow water, are known to generate solitons: localized waves of translation. Solitons are often hidden in a wave packet at the beginning and only reveal themselves in the far-field. With a special signal processing technique known as the non-linear Fourier transform ...

A novel technique for measuring capillary/gravity waves travelling on air/water interfaces is investigated. The main motivation is to measure the free surface deformations of an air cavity used for air lubrication of ship hulls. Due to limitations in the available techniques, two novel methods are proposed, out of which the Stereo Particle Image...

In this paper, the use of an absorbing boundary condition (ABC) is investigated for the numerical simulation of free surface water waves. An enhanced type of an ABC based on the first- and second-order Higdon boundary conditions is presented. The numerical implementation of the ABC using a staggered grid arrangement is explained in detail....

The PhD study focused on two topics. The first topic was energy dissipation in wave propagation. The wave dissipation can be caused by physical and/or numerical phenomena, such as the free surface treatment, physical viscosity and artificial viscosity due to discretization of the momentum equations. Among these the free surface treatment is an...

Currently a new wave flume for hydraulic experiments near to prototype scale is under construction at Deltares. In the flume, modern measurement equipment will be installed. One of the potential sensor techniques is Terrestrial Laser Scanner (TLS) based range measurements of water waves. TLS range measurements are a very fast and accurate method...

The three-dimensional behavior of jet core breakdown is investigated with experiments conducted on a free water jet at Re = 5000 by time-resolved tomographic particle image velocimetry (TR-TOMO PIV). The investigated domain encompasses the range between 0 and 10 jet diameters. The characteristic pulsatile motion of vortex ring shedding and...

A surface capturing method is developed for steady water-air flow with gravity. Second-order accuracy is obtained with flux limiting and turbulence is modeled with Menter's model. The model is solved efficiently with a combination of multigrid and defect correction. Results for two test cases confirm the efficiency and accuracy of the method.

The initial growth of mechanically generated small amplitude water waves below a laminar air stream was examined numerically and experimentally in order to explore the primary growth mechanism, that is, the interfacial instability of coupled laminar air and water flows. Measurements of the laminar velocity profile in the air over the water...

Na het hoge water in de Maas in 1993 en 1995 is projectorganisatie De Maaswerken opgericht. Deze heeft onder meer als doel gesteld om de bewoonde gebieden langs de onbedijkte Maas te beschermen tegen hoogwater tot een niveau dat gemiddeld 1/250 keer per jaar optreedt. Een van de geplande maatregelen om dit doel te bereiken is de aanleg van...
