Pilot onderzoek naar historische hoogtemodellen

Throughout this thesis, a competitive durable reinforcement design for the Mastenbroek-IJssel reinforcement project is developed and modeled. In 2024 the Drents Overijsselse Delta Water Board began with the exploration phase of the Mastenbroek-IJssel reinforcement project as 10.8 km of the IJssel dike …

The increasing temperature of the past years has a negative impact on the agricultural sector. This is affecting crop growth negatively, as a result from the heat and drought stress the crops are experiencing. Moreover, the experienced heat and drought stress results in erosion of the soil, causing …

Abstract: Aureobasidium is omnipresent and can be isolated from air, water bodies, soil, wood, and other plant materials, as well as inorganic materials such as rocks and marble. A total of 32 species of this fungal genus have been identified at the level of DNA, of which Aureobasidium pullulans is best …

DEME Group, a leader in offshore energy and marine infrastructure, seeks to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of cable burial operations for offshore wind farms through the development of a user-friendly trencher mobility model. This research addresses the limitations of existing models and provides …

This thesis aimed to understand how Tensar’s current design methods work, in relation to the calculation of working platforms. Thereafter, a full breakdown of each design method’s limitations was addressed, with this thesis focusing on the problem of stratification, in the T-value method. This limitation …

This thesis focuses on optimising the emptying process of water storage facilities in urban areas, and was conducted during my graduate internship at Waterfeit Adviseurs. The study is based on the need to improve the efficiency of the system, as current systems frequently lead to floods and ineffective …

The comparative analysis of clay properties is a crucial study in dike design, construction and maintenance. Understanding the properties of different clay covers and soil is essential for ensuring the stability and effectiveness of dike systems. This research analysis aims to provide valuable insights …

This document is the result of executing the final thesis about ‘a solution for the corrosion damage in Zijkanaal A in Terneuzen’. To attain the necessary competencies required for a positive result in this final thesis, Civil Engineering is heavily integrated into the ‘designing’ and ‘specifying’ aspects. …

This study explores the effect of precipitation, evaporation, animal burrowing and the changing climate on the permeability of the clay cover layer on a dike. It also showcases the possibility of utilizing finite difference flow models, such as MODFLOW, for the simulation of various environmental impacts …
