H2MS-dynamics
Hydraulics, Hydrodynamics, Morphodynamics, and Sediment Dynamics Research Group
H2MS-dynamics, led by Professor Dr. ir. Margaret Chen, is active in the research fields of (1) engineering works of waterway, such as river margins and banks, navigation channel deepening and dredging; (2) siltation, sedimentation, and erosion in areas of harbors, ports, dykes, dams, seawalls and coast protective structures; (3) effects of gray, blue-green infrastructures on structure-process interaction and resulted impact on ecosystem functionality, naturality, and safety.
Current research topics of the group include:
- in-situ experiment and model simulation of integrated multi-scale hydrodynamics, morphodynamics, and sediment dynamics linked to climate variability and flood defense
- hydraulic and structure-process interaction in particular linked to port and harbor development
- physical processes including wind, wave and tide related to coastal safety.
- investigation sand banks, beach nourishment and dune-beach-shoreface system
- dam breaching, dyke breaking, and associated issues such as transient flow and sediment transport.
- nature based solution for flood defense
- geoacoustic characteristics
- GIS and remote sensing applications to
forecast and improve integrated water management
