Faculty Civil Engineering and Geosciences Department Hydraulic Engineering Date 1993-01-01 Abstract In Chapter 2 of this report an overview is given on fluvial processes involved in the modelling discussed. Chapter 3 is concerned with scale models, whilst Chapter 4 deals with numerical models. The main problems treated are, firstly, modelling of the water movement, followed by sediment transport and morphology. Attention is also given to the dispersion of dissolved matter and problems associated with ice. The 'tools' for scale models and numerical models are given only little attention. For scale models the tools are instruments and control systems. For numerical models numerical schemes are involved. A good introduction can be found in Vreugdenhil (1989). In Chapter 5 guidance is given on the selection of the type of model for river problems, though this has to be of a general nature.
