intro story Coast / Estuary

Coast / Estuary

Coastal systems are among the most dynamic physical systems on earth and are subject to a large variety of forces. The morphodynamic changes occurring to coastlines worldwide are of great interest and importance. These changes occur as a result of the erosion of sediments, its subsequent transport as bed load or suspended load, and eventual deposition. 
 
Estuaries are partly enclosed water bodies that have an open connection to the coast. Estuaries generally have one or more branching channels, intertidal mudflats and/or salt marshes. Intertidal areas are of high ecological importance and trap sediments (sands, silts, clays and organic matter).
Within the Delft3D modelling package a large variation of coastal and estuarine physical and chemical processes can be simulated. These include waves, tidal propagation, wind- or wave-induced water level setup, flow induced by salinity or temperature gradients, sand and mud transport, water quality and changing bathymetry (morphology). Delft3D can also be used operationally e.g. storm, surge and algal bloom forecasting.

  • 4 Go-To Apps For Revision and Exam Prep

    After so many weeks of writing essays, reports, term papers, and other academic assignments, it is high time to start revising for exams. This period of student life is really tough, especially for those who were not serious enough with the classroom activities. Students who didn’t take notes during lectures have much trouble preparing for the exams. As a rule, their memory isn’t sharp enough to keep in mind all the details their professor said. Learners struggle a lot before their exams. They have to spend long hours in libraries reading a pile of sources and doing thorough research. Don’t want to be among those students who have their hands full? Benefit from the most popular academic help apps that will make revision more effective and less stressful. Download them to your mobile phone and revise for college exams like a pro. Study Blue If you are a fan of flashcards, consider a study application Study Blue. It is a free app, so you can download it to your device and get quick help from the crowdsourced library of materials. This app can be used to make and share flashcards, to add audio and images to your study materials, to check the knowledge of the subject taking tests and keeping progress. After downloading this app, you’ll have access to an impressive library of materials for studying and helpful guides, created by students. <a href="https://speedypaper.app">SpeedyPaper Adviser</a> One more useful application for all students is SpeedyPaper Adviser. This writing app will help you boost your grades and prepare for exams more effectively. Having SpeedyPaper Adviser on your phone, you will get unlimited access to the huge database of college and university papers. You will be able to have a look at samples of various academic assignments. Find necessary essays, reports, research papers, course works, and boost your grades. Students will know how to create, to structure, and to cite assignments. The customer support is available round-the-clock, so if you have trouble finding a required paper, you may contact managers and ask all your questions. Numerous positive reviews about this app prove that it is really great and worth giving a try. To know about all the features, download an app on your handy or visit their website. Gojimo This application was created to help students have a smooth revision. Undergraduates can use Gojimo both online and on mobile devices. An app contains helpful content for learners and some quizzes. You can select an exam you want to revise for, and it goes with a list of questions you may be asked. If you haven’t found a required topic, you can get in touch with the support via instant messaging. Quizlet It is one more helpful application for students who are going to prepare for exams. It is free, easy to use, and is a good choice for self-study.

  • dispersion of radionuclides

    Dear all, I'm beginner in DELFT 3D and I'm working on the dispersion of radionuclides. Please help me with the following issues. 1- Regarding the “DELWAQ” module, is it reasonable to study the dispersion of conservative radionuclide (which their transport equation is mainly the advection-diffusion Eq.) via coupling a transport code to DELFT 3D? or does DELFT have the ability to do such a simulation by itself? 2- If the coupling is reasonable, is it possible to define the advection-diffusion Eq. by means of a UDF and using its variables or is it doable trough the source code of DELFT? Is there a complete access to the source of the code? 3- By using UDF for this purpose, is it necessary to define certain kind of input data for UDF? or do we only use the computed current data from DELFT as input data for transport calculations in the UDF? Your assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated.
