A novel approach for the assessment of morphological evolution based on observed water levels in tide-dominated estuaries [PDF]
Assessing the impacts of both natural (e.g., tidal forcing from the ocean) and human-induced changes (e.g., dredging for navigation, land reclamation) on estuarine morphology is particularly important for the protection and management of the estuarine ...

A parametric study of DMS subjected to induced low-stress consolidation and heat treatment [PDF]
Dredging activities are important either in the control the accessibility and navigability to harbours or the maintenance to the existing facilities. Dredged marine sediments (DMS) is the products generated from dredging activities.

Numerical study on smoke temperature characteristics in T-shaped bifurcated tunnel fires
Due to the swift progress of subterranean urban transportation, various branching structures emerged one after another. When it brought significant convenience to people’s travel, the fire hazard associated with it could not be overlooked.

Numerical simulation of hydro-and morfodynamic effects of side channels design parameters [PDF]
Four side channel design parameters are analysed by two-dimensionally modelling the extremes with the numerical software package Delft3D. In order to advise how to minimise the maintenance activity dredging in rivers due to the construction of side ...

Abstract Neandertals are known to possess very distinctive traits in their bony labyrinth morphology, such as an inferiorly positioned posterior canal and a very low number of turns in the cochlea. Hence, the inner ear has been often used to assess the Neandertal status of fragmentary fossils.

Using a sand wave model for optimal monitoring of navigation depth [PDF]
In the Euro Channel to Rotterdam Harbor, sand waves reduce the navigable depth to an unacceptable level. To avoid the risk of grounding, the navigation depth is monitored and sand waves that reduce the navigation depth unacceptably are dredged. After the
