Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
The prototype monitoring system at Zeebrugge (Belgium), instrumented for the acquisition of field data on waves interacting with a rubble mound breakwater, is presented. To date, the monitoring system has been successfully put into operation and the acquired field data used for the calibration of physical and numerical models. The instrumentation and the data acquisition sections of the monitoring system are described. Experience of more than ten years is made available to those who deal with instrumentation in harsh maritime conditions. Two instrumentation systems are presented in more detail: pore pressure sensors for the measurement of internal pore pressures and stepgauges for the measurement of the wave run-up and run-down. Algorithms used for analysis of acquired field data are included. |
