Chen, Anxiang (author)The wave attenuation of vegetation plays an increasingly important role in flood control in coastal areas. Past studies have found that the interaction of waves with vegetation mainly depends on hydraulic conditions and vegetation characteristics. Therefore, it is necessary to build vegetation models and quantify vegetation characteristics...master thesis 2022

Ruesen, Joël (author)Large-scale cultivation of seaweed presents opportunities for multiple global challenges currently at play. Cultivated seaweed can provide a sustainable source of protein for humans and cattle without competing for land, freshwater supply or the use of fertilisers. Kelp forests are known to be a solid basis for an elaborate biome that supports...master thesis 2022

Dào, H.T. (author), Hofland, B. (author), Suzuki, Tomohiro (author), Stive, M.J.F. (author), Mai, Tri (author), Tuan, Le Xuan (author)Mangrove forests, that often act as natural coastal defences, enormously suffered due to ongoing climate change and human disturbances. Thus, it is necessary to have a countermeasure to mitigate the loss of mangroves. Wooden fences are becoming a viable nature-based solution to protect vulnerable replanted mangrove forests. However, the wooden...journal article 2021

de Bruijn, Max (author)Conventional dike reinforcement measures do not take vegetation into account, while vegetation contains wave damping properties. Reasoning for this is that vegetation in general is seen as temporary and hence may be removed in the future. In this case study for the Dutch waterboard WDOD, the wave damping properties of vegetation in a floodplain...master thesis 2020

Borsje, Ruben (author)Demak is a regency within the province of Central Java, Indonesia, with a mud-mangrove coast bordering the Java Sea. The region is facing a rapid retreat of the coastline, threatening the livelihood of a large part of the population. The main cause of the erosion is the deforestation of the green belt of mangroves. This has disturbed the...master thesis 2019

Duz, B. (author), Borsboom, M.J.A. (author), Veldman, A.E.P. (author), Wellens, P.R. (author), Huijsmans, R.H.M. (author)In this paper the attention is focused on the effect of various VOF methods on efficient and accurate simulation of free surface water waves. For this purpose, we will compare several VOF methods in numerical simulations of propagating waves where strong nonlinear behavior is dominant in the flow. Comparisons and discussions will be provided to...conference paper 2016

Duz, B. (author)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...doctoral thesis 2015

(author)Over the past decades the effect of vegetation (e.g. kelp, mangroves, sea grass) on nearshore coastal processes has received more and more attention. In recent years several numerical wave models have been extended to include this effect. In the current study, the numerical storm impact model XBeach was extended with formulations found in...conference paper 2015

Lavies, H.G. (author)The breakwaters of IJmuiden are of a unique design; a riprap core is covered with a thick impermeable asphalt slab. During construction and after completion, slope instability caused extensive damage. Placement of a concrete cube armour layer prevented further damage to the asphalt, but proved to be unstable and required a significant amount of...master thesis 2014

Bleck, M. (author)This paper intends to demonstrate the applications of artificial reefs to a broader readership concentrating on examples in coastal protection. In Germany, artificial reefs are not widely used as a coastal protection measure probably due to limited knowledge of the potential of this kind of structures. Reefs are not intended to ensure total...report 2006

Jansens, R. (author)Filterconstructies hebben als doel constructies te beschermen tegen uitspoeling van grond en beschadiging door wateroverdrukken. Een granulaire filterconstructie bestaat uit een ofmeer lagen van granulairfiltermateriaal, die het onderliggende, loskorrelige basismateriaal tegenhoudt, maar het water doorlaat. Meestal wordt het criterium gehanteerd...master thesis 2000

De Wit, P.J. (author)A research project was carried out at the Delft University of Technology in order to study the interaction between waves as weil as a current and a muddy bed. For this purpose several experiments were made on two artificial clays, namely China Clay and Westwald Clay. The results of the experiments on China Clay were reported by De Wit (1994). In...report 1994
