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 SWAN model version 40.20 has been calibrated against wave observations carried out in the storm of 26-27 October 2002 for the coastal area near Petten, the Slotermeer and the Westerschelde. Relevant parameters for the calibration have been determined on the basis of a sensitivity study of SWAN 40.20 with respect to numerical and physical settings for these field cases, for a wave flume situation and academic fetch-limited wave growth. In addition, the cumulative wave steepness method for the computation of whitecapping has been tested for these situations. A technique for the automatic calibration of SWAN against measured wave data has been developed and applied to a number of situations in the 26-27 October 2002 storm. The newly obtained settings have been verified against different field measured data in the same storm. In addition a number of suggestions for improving SWAN 40.20 have been formulated. |
