Breaching of coastal dikes. Detailed breaching model

Based on an extensive literature study on the most relevant processes associated with dike breaching and the models available, a modelling strategy was developed which consists in the development of a preliminary and a detailed breaching model (LWI Report 910, FLOODsite Report ). Results from the preliminary model give an overview of the breaching process, but indicate that improvements into a more process-oriented detailed model are required (LWI Report 927, FLOODsite Internal Report T06-06-01). This progress report aims to address the development and implementation of the detailed model.Floodsit
