Overes, Pauline (author)Offshore wind farms are being built at an unprecedented pace in the North Sea. The Dutch government is aiming for a CO2 neutral energy supply by 2050 and vast cost reductions have turned (offshore) wind energy into a worthy competitor for other (green) energy sources. Most of the planned wind farms in the Dutch North Sea are located in areas...master thesis 2021

Wenzl, Philipp (author)Climate is changing. Weather conditions are becoming more extreme; we are expecting fiercer storm surges, more intense seasonal precipitation patterns and, in some calculations, up to three meters relative sea level rise. <br/>Especially the south coast of the North Sea will be affected the most. Particularly in the Netherlands, the coastal...master thesis 2019

Oosterlo, P. (author)In this thesis, a method was developed, with which the infragravity waves and morphological changes of a sandy foreshore are included in the calculation of the probability of dike failure due to wave overtopping. Constructing a natural foreshore in front of the dike can be an attractive and innovative method to decrease the failure probability....master thesis 2015

De Fockert, A. (author)The aim of the Strength and Loading of Coastal Structures (SBW) project is to improve the models to derive the Hydraulic Boundary Conditions which are determined along the Dutch coast once per five years. The Amelander inlet is chosen as area of interest in the Wadden Sea. As the Amelander Inlet is morphologically a very active area, this study...master thesis 2008

Van Geer, P.F.C. (author)The present study considers long-term morphologic development of the inlets forming the Western Dutch Wadden Sea. This concerns analysis of field measurements carried out since closure of the Zuider Sea (1932) as well as an assessment of possible imporvements of long-term morphological prodictions made for this area using ASMITA. From field...master thesis 2007
