Assessment of the Current and Future Saltwater Intrusion Into the Cai River in Nha Trang, Vietnam

2D urban flood modelling using a numerical model of Delft3D flexible mesh: A case study in downtown of Shanghai city, China

In this additional thesis a 2D urban flood model in the downtown area of Shanghai was investigated. Therefore a numerical model of Delft3D flexible mesh (DFM) was used. Since the model was investigated from scratch, a lot of data analysis and pre-processing was required to have reasonable input data. As input data a surface elevation map, a map...

A study on numerical problems of a coupled modelling of regional water balance and anthropogenic landcover change

This thesis describes the approaches applied to attempt to solve the numerical problems of the regional atmospheric model incorporated in the coupled modelling of regional water balance and anthropogenic land cover change in Amazon basin. For computational efficiency, the previous atmospheric model is evaluated at monthly scale. In order to cope...

Numerical Simulation of Mixed Mode Crack of Concrete: A Case Study Based on Experiment of Double Notched Specimen

Setting up a numerical flume using a hybrid particle-mesh method

A literature survey which concerns a variety of wave generation and absorption methods was accomplished. The survey deals with the methods used for the experiment wave tank and numerical wave tank. Their implementations are also described very briefly. The numerical wave tank (NWT) was set up using the hybrid particle-mesh method with the...

Using a transfer matrix based on 10 CMIP5 models for ENSO prediction

Additional Thesis work performed as part of the master Hydraulic Engineering at Delft University of Technology in collaboration with University of Southampton, Ocean and Earth Sciences, Physical Oceanography - In this research the outcome of several realisations of 10 different models from the CMIP5 program is used to predict the El Niño...
