Flash floods in Cebu: monitoring, modelling and preventing

Kasteel, Max (author), Hoogendoorn, Niels (author)

Flash floods are a damaging and recurring problem in Cebu city, Philippines. Very little data is known about the intensities and precipitation amounts and the resulting river discharges. This research project firstly aims to gather as much data as possible on precipitation and river discharges that could cause the floods, it focuses on a small...

The stability of synthetic gabions in waves

Oosthoek, J. (author)

Gabion mattresses consist out of a steel wire grid in which fill material is retained. The advantage of these constructions is that the individual particle stability is no longer of importance. The containing function of the grid results in the effect that the fill material starts to behave as a group. Next to that the mattresses are all...

Gabion stability

Beekx, R.H.P.A. (author)

South Korea is reclaiming land by constructing dams and polders. The large tidal differences along the Korean coast make building these dams a challenging job. One of the solutions in South Korea to cope with the high flow velocities in closure projects is to apply sack gabions. These are steel nets with rocks inside them that weigh up to 3 tons...

Eigenschappen van gabionboxen onder golfaanval

Roeleveld, B.J. (author)

Dit afstudeerverslag handelt met name over de golftransmissiecoefficient van gabionboxen belast door golven. Het onderzoek is uitgevoerd in het kader van een afstudeerproject aan de Technische Universiteit Delft, in samenwerking met baggermaatschappij Boskalis. Gabions worden op dit moment vooral toegepast als bodembescherming tegen de...

Bodemverdediging onder zware ontwerpomstandigheden

Van Bree, B. (author)

Momenteel wordt onderzocht of het technisch haalbaar is de Golf van Khambhat, een zee-arm in het noordwesten van India, af te sluiten. Bij de afsluiting van dit estuarium treden, door het enorme reservoiroppervlak en het grote getijverschil, enorm hoge stroomsnelheden op. Uit deze haalbaarheidsstudie kwam de meer algemene vraag naar voren of het...

Sand erosion at the toe of a gabion-protected dune face

Chapman, A. (author)

The purpose of this research project was to study the manner in which erosion takes place the the toe of a dune slope protected by gabions, and to examine the response of the gabions to this erosion. A sand slope overlaid by model gabions was subjected to wave attack in a hydraulic flume, and periodic measurements of the bottom profile were...

Commentaar op "Hydraulic test to develop design criteria for the use of RENO matrasses (Gabions)"

Den Adel, H. (author)

Er zijn proeven uitgevoerd op steenkorven van verschillende dikten. De verhouding dikte van de korf tot de afmeting van de stenen is klein, 1 à 10. - Het rapport hierover is geheel geschreven vanuit een hydraulisch gezichtspunt. Voor stroming in continua leidt dit tot een overschatting van de optredende snelheden en schuifkrachten. Het resultaat...

This report discusses channel stabilization design by erosion protection measures considering risk analysis. Although many different erosion protection measures have been used, this report only considers rip-rap and wire enclosed rock (in mattresses) which are two of the most widely used methods of erosion protection. The purpose of erosion...
