Dike erosion landside slope : Progress report 2023 Sito-PS KvK DE1

In order to obtain a relation for the erosion of the landside slope by wave overtopping, a model developed by ISL has been validated and calibrated for data obtained at wave overtopping tests at the Hedwigepolder (2023) and at Delfzijl (2007), all on bare clay. Results are compared with results from small-scale erosion tests on samples taken at both locations in 2023. The results are not yet convincing. The research will be continued in 2024.
