The Lagos coast - Investigation of the long-term morphological impact of the Eko Atlantic City project

The Lagos coast has been suffering high rates of erosion since the construction of three harbour moles, i.e. the West Mole, East Mole and the Training Mole, at the tidal inlet connecting the Lagos Lagoon to the South Atlantic Ocean. To provide for a permanent erosion mitigation measure and to create residential and commercial area for circa 400...

Jetty design at Rio Araranguá

Master project report. The hydraulic efficiency of the river Araranguá will be increased by the construction of jetties at the mouth of the river. The river tends to migrate from south to north which decreases the hydraulic efficiency and causes flooding upstream during events of high discharge. To stop the migration the construction of jetties...

Morphodynamics of Hue tidal inlets, Vietnam

Morphodynamics of a tidal inlet system on a micro-tidal coast in a tropical monsoon influenced region is modelled and discussed. Effects of tides, waves, river flows and system configuration on the inlet morphologies are investigated with the aid of process-based state-of-the-art numerical models. Seasonal and episodic behaviour of the inlet...

Morphodynamics of tidal inlets in a tropical monsoon area

Morphodynamics of a tidal inlet system on a micro-tidal coast in a tropical monsoon influenced region is modelled and discussed. Influences of river flow and wave climate on the inlet morphology are investigated with the aid of process-based state-of-the-art numerical models. Seasonal and episodic behaviour of the inlet system under the...

Modelleren van een kunstmatige rivier ter plaatse van de Hondsbossche en Pettemer zeewering

Het onderwerp van dit afstudeerproject is ontstaan naar aanleiding van een prijsvraag van de gemeente Zijpe. Ter gelegenheid van het 400-jarig bestaan van de Zijpe en Hazepolder werd een prijsvraag uitgeschreven met als onderwerp: "kijk op de kust". Door de TU-Delft, in samenwerking met Alkyon, werd aan de prijsvraag meegedaan. Hun "kijk op de...

Eb- en Vloedschaar Systemen in de Nederlandse Getijwateren - Ebb and Flood Channel Systems in the Netherlands Tidal Waters

The present paper, “Eb- en vloedschaarsystemen in de Nederlandse getijwateren” (Ebb- and floodchannel systems in the Dutch tidal waters), which was published in 1950, should be considered as Van Veen’s most important publication since his thesis. It summarizes the results of 20 years of intensive study of estuarine and tidal-basin morphodynamics...
