Alday Gonzalez, M.F. (author), Baki, B. (author), Basu, S. (author), Lavidas, G. (author)This Deliverable, 6.2 Renewable Coarse Resource Assessment for the European Region, aims to offer a preliminary overview of the available wind, wave and solar resources across the European Continent. The coarse assessment aims to analyse and assess the current levels of these renewable resources, analysing and discussing the expected variations...report 2022

Alday Gonzalez, M.F. (author), Baki, B. (author), Basu, S. (author), Lavidas, G. (author)This Deliverable, 6.1 Renewable Correlation of offshore resources, aims to investigate the potential for correlation between parameters of different renewable energies.<br/>The analysis is based on a first layer on coarse data, and will allow us to identify which resources have more “connectivity”. The resource assessment, even at coarse level,...report 2022

Van Steeg, P. (author), Labruijere, A. (author), Mom, R. (author)The stability of grass covered slopes on primary flood defences under wave attack is an important aspect with respect to the strength of the entire dike. In a grass slope many transitions to objects (poles, stairs, fences, buildings et cetera) or other revetments (concrete, asphalt, placed block revetment) can be present. This can potentially...report 2015

Hollander, W. (author)The crew of the Razende Bol had experienced that their work conditions were worse than measured by the waverider. They concluded that the wave height measured by the waverider should be multiplied with a factor of 1.5 to find the real wave conditions in the working area. A number of reasons have been discussed, but only a hypothesis was...report 2014

Verhagen, H.J. (author)Waves can be measured in several ways. One way of measuring waves is by measuring the wave pressure at a certain depth using a pressure sensor and calculate the wave information from the pressure record. The EMS wave logger uses a Honeywell MLH 050 PGP 06A pressure sensor. The information is stored by the logger on a SD card. The software in the...report 2013

Sterl, A. (author)Tides, currents, wind, waves, and sea level (surge) influence each other in several ways. These interactions are often not accounted for. We here review some recent papers that report results from coupled modelling with the aim to get an impression of how large coupled effects might be, and in which regions and under which circumstances they...report 2013

McIvor, A.L. (author), Möller, I. (author), Spencer, T. (author), Spalding, M. (author)Coastal populations are particularly vulnerable to the impacts of extreme events such as storms and hurricanes, and these pressures may be exacerbated through the influence of climate change and sea level rise. Coastal ecosystems such as mangrove forests are increasingly being promoted and used as a tool in coastal defence strategies. There...report 2012

Anderson, M.E. (author), McKee Smith, J. (author), McKay, S.K. (author)Flooding resulting from hurricanes and other extreme storm events is a prominent risk along the coasts. These coastal areas are typically of low elevation and relief,making land and infrastructure highly susceptible to inundation by storm surge and waves. These verity of this threat is exacerbated by sea level rise and a possible increase in...report 2011

Smale, A.J. (author)The Dutch Water Act (in Dutch: 'Waterwet 2009') stipulates that water boards must assess the quality of their primary water defences every six years. The Statutory Safety Assessment Suite (in Dutch: 'Wettelijk Toetsinstrumentarium', or shortly WTI) prescribes the rules to be applied. The WTI mainly comprises of the Safety Test Regulations (VTV),...report 2011

Van der Westhuysen, A. (author), Van Dongeren, A. (author), Van Nieuwkoop, J. (author), Groeneweg, J. (author), Eslami Arab, S. (author)Over the last five years a research program has been carried out to assess the performance of the spectral wave model SWAN in the Wadden Sea so that it may be used for the transformation of offshore wave conditions to wave boundary conditions near the sea defenses (dikes and dunes). The assessment was done on the basis of extensive wave...report 2011

Van der Meer, J.W. (author)The idea of the Wave Run-up Simulator is based on the experiences with the Wave Overtopping Simulator. It is possible to simulate wave tongues overtopping a dike crest in reality. It must also be possible to simulate waves in the run-up and run-down zone of the seaward slope. This is the zone after waves have broken and when they rush-up the...report 2011

Gautier, C. (author), Van der Westhuysen, A. (author)The present study aims to assess the prediction of wave penetration into tidal inlets under ambient current in SWAN. The performance of SWAN in the modelling of wave-current interaction was studied for two field cases, namely Port Phillip Bay Heads, Australia, and the Amelander Zeegat in the Dutch Wadden Sea. In-situ wave observations were...report 2010
