UT PhD candidate develops new facility for dike erosion researchHow long does a dike remain safe when waves overtop it and wash away its protective grass cover? University of Twente PhD candidate Niels van der Vegt will investigate this question using a new indoor Wave Overtopping Simulator (iWOS). Over the past year, Van der Vegt has been responsible for the detailed design of this unique research facility. Built in the Hydraulic Engineering Laboratory in Delft, the simulator makes it possible to study on a large scale and under controlled conditions how overtopping waves damage dikes.Read more
