Modelling of the sediment supply to the watercourses, the effect of erosion control measures and the transport of sediment in the unnavigable watercourses Specification no. WAT/L 2012 S 0005 X Departement of spatial development, environment, energy, climate, green economy, animal welfare
This fifth progress report discusses the calibration and validation of the detailed sediment transport models for the measured catchment areas of the VMM Sediment Monitoring Network. In the first section the InfoWorks ICM (Innovyze Ltd.) v6.0.5 is discussed, in which important modifications were carried out for sediment transport modelling in open water courses. The

Modelling of the sediment supply to the watercourses, the effect of erosion control measures and the transport of sediment in the unnavigable watercourses. Departement of spatial development, environment, energy, climate, green economy, animal welfare
In de beheersing van de sedimentproblematiek in Vlaanderen is een vermindering van de sedimentaanvoer ten gevolge van bodemerosie cruciaal. Erosiebestrijding vormde de laatste 10 jaar het speerpunt van het Vlaamse bodembeschermingsbeleid. Erosiebestrijdingsmaatregelen (EBM) worden bij voorkeur zo brongericht mogelijk ingezet en richten zich zowel op het verminderen van de sedimentaanvoer naar de waterlopen als op het behoud van bodemkwaliteit en ...
A discontinuous finite element suspended sediment transport model for water quality assessments in river networks Vrije Universiteit Brussel KU Leuven
Suspended sediment plays an important role in the distribution and transport of many pollutants (such as radionuclides) in rivers. Pollutants may adsorb on fine suspended particles (e.g. clay) and spread according to the suspended sediment movement. Hence, the simulation of the suspended sediment mechanism is indispensable for realistic transport modelling. This paper presents and tests a simple mathematical model for predicting the suspended ...
OpenMI-based integrated sediment transport modelling of the river Zenne, Belgium Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Recent observations show that the river Zenne (Belgium) remains well below the water quality goals stated by the European Union Water Framework Directive. An interuniversity, multidisciplinary research project was therefore launched to evaluate the effects of wastewater management plans on the ecological functioning of the river. To this end, different water quantity and quality processes had to be considered and modelled, e.g., the hydrology in ...
Linking SWAT and sobek using open modeling interface (openmi) for sediment transport simulation in the blue nile river BASIN Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Computer models assist basin-scale decision making by taking into account upstream-downstream interdependencies. The SWAT (hydrological) model code was developed into an OpenMI-compliant version and linked with the SOBEK (hydrodynamic) model to extend SWAT's simulations of basin-scale streamflow and sediment transport. The development of an OpenMI-compliant version of SWAT involved reorganizing the SWAT model code and wrapping it with the ...
Comparison of sediment transport computations using hydrodynamic versus hydrologic models in the Simiyu river in Tanzania Vrije Universiteit Brussel
This paper presents the results of a study that compares the sediment routing of the Simiyu River using
the hydrologic model, Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) and the 1D hydrodynamic simulation software
for Rivers and Estuaries (SOBEK-RE) model. Routing in SWAT is completed using the simplified Bagnold's
equation and in the SOBEK-RE model is undertaken using the Saint Venant equation. The upstream
boundary conditions ...
