Transport van stenen van een granulaire bodemverdediging

Experimental research on the stability of bed protection and transport of stones on such a bottom protection. Investigated were the effects of duration and magnitude of the load, the shape, and placing density of the stones.

De vlakheid van steenbestortingen

Laboratory research on the distribution of stones during the dumping process from a side stone dumping vessel. Focus on the variation in the height of the toplayer of the bed protection (degree of leveling). Research in cooperation with Royal Boskalis Westminster.

Stabiliteit van gestorte steen

Experimental research on the stability of dumped stones for bed protections with focus on the gradation of the stones. A bottom protection has more roughness than anticipated. The Shields criterion is still applicable (psi=0.03)
