A numerical model is developed to predict the onset of local scour below offshore pipelines in steady currents and waves. The scour is assumed to start when the pressure gradient underneath the pipeline exceeds the floatation gradient of the sediments. In this model, the water flow field above the b

From experimental batch runs of filtration with sedimentation above the cake formed, a procedure is proposed and applied to experimental data for obtaining the relationships between the settling solids velocity in the hindered settling zone, the local specific resistance and the effective pressure a
Information on sediment and nutrient export from catchments and about related erosive processes is required by catchment managers and decision-makers. Many models exist for the consideration of these processes. However, these models differ greatly in terms of their complexity, their inputs and requi
