Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

Abstract |
The hinterland connection of the port of Zeebrugge by means of inland vessels is a major issue. Therefore, a specific type of inland vessels is conditionally allowed to make use of the 16 nautical miles long sea trajectory between Zeebrugge and the mouth of the Western Scheldt estuary to connect the port with the inland waterway network. Detailed information about the wave climate in the area between the eastern dam of the port of Zeebrugge, Pas van het Zand, Scheur-Oost/Wielingen, Vlissingen, Breskens and the coastline is essential to maximize the efficiency of the sea-river traffic in the present situation, and to decrease the requirements of inland vessels for safe navigation on a coastal route between the port of Zeebrugge and the mouth of the Western Scheldt. The existing project focuses on the model set-up and calculation of the detailed wave climate between Zeebrugge and the mouth of the Western Scheldt estuary in the present situation and also a future configuration for wind, wave and water level conditions throughout the year 2013 by means of the validated numerical model. The result of the simulation are delivered to the client for the further analysis (e.g. shading effects of new islands scenarios for the ship navigation). Research results can be used for the further analysis of the navigation of all vessels which are making use of the present route and future alternative routes. Besides, it can serve as a basis to evaluate the impact of measures on the response of inland vessels. |
