This portal gives links to full text versions of reports. For e-books, conference proceedings and journal papers is referred to other pages of the VKC-water.
The main repositories with relevant reports are:
- TU Delft Institutional repository - contains all reports (Dissertations, M.Sc.-theses, internal and external research reports and many other publication) of TU Delft, but is not restricted to water.
- TU Delft Hydro repository - contains reports related to hydraulic engineering, but issued by other organisations, like Deltares, Rijkswaterstaat, European projects, Consulting Engineers. This repository is internationally oriented. (info for advanced use)
- Hydrotheek - contains mainly Dutch reports on water issues, focus on water management and water quality. This repository is maintained by Wageningen University on behalf of STOWA
- Digital library of the US Army Corps of Engineers:
- Publications of the Coastal and hydraulics lab
- Delft Hydraulics Publications (link to Deltares server)
In the links below dedicated access is given to parts of the above mentioned repositories.
- Publications from the Department of Hydraulic Engineering
- Repository of Hydraulic Engineering reports (not originating form TU Delft, but public access)
- Conference and seminar proceedings hosted by TU Delft
- Reference works from elsewhere
- European projects
- Hydraulic Engineering Classics
Publications and reports of the
department of Hydraulic Engineering
These lists contain both publication by the section Hydraulic Engineering as
well as the section Environmental Fluid Mechanics:
-
Ph.D.-theses
This page gives an overview of all Ph.D.-theses issues by the department. A search can be performed by promotor, by year or by promovendus. - M.Sc.-theses
This page gives an overview of all recent M.Sc.-theses (from 1996 onwards) by students of the department. A full list of theses before 1996 is available; the older theses are available on request. -
Communications on Hydraulic and Geotechnical Engineering
(1985-present)
In the first years mainly research reports were published, in the later years the main focus was republishing Ph.D.-theses from this Department. The function of the paper version of the Communications was to disseminate information mainly to other libraries and research institutes. At this moment this series is mainly used to disseminate background information related to other publications (e.g. data reports with data underlying journal papers and Ph.D. theses). -
Communications on Hydraulic Engineering
Research documents from 1970-1985 -
Internal reports
Internal reports and reports for third parties, not published in the "Communications". - Data enter
The datacenter contains data files with data used in Ph.D reports, M.Sc. reports and other investigations. The datacenter also contains software developed in this framework
Repository of Hydraulic Engineering reports (DIgitale Rapporten Kast, DiRK-Hydro) (info for advanced use)
This repository contains many reports on hydraulic engineering, not issued by TU Delft. The reports are mainly issued by or on behalf of Rijkswaterstaat, other public authorities or issued in the framework of European projects. The repository can be accessed via http://repository.tudelft.nl/hydro.Direct access is possible via
- the list of publishers (like Rijkswaterstaat, University of Braunschweig, Stowa, Delft Hydraulics, Royal Haskoning)
- the list of projects (like ComCoast, Clash, TAW/ENW, Steenzettingen)
- the list of logical classifications (like revetments, asphalt, wave spectra, dune erosion)
Direct access to some important clusters of reports:
- Publicaties van TAW en ENW (including English Translations)

European projects
Full text versions of reports of some European projects in hydraulic Engineering:
- ComCoast
A European Interreg project (2004-2008; Belgium, The Netherlands, Germany, UK)) with focus on multifunctional use of coastal protection, with a special focus on the mitigation of sea level rise. The project studies the transition from a single line of sea defence to a multifunctional zone. -
Floodsite
FLOODsite is an “Integrated Project” in the Global Change and Ecosystems priority of the Sixth Framework Programme of the European Commission. It commenced in 2004 and runs to 2009. The FLOODsite consortium includes 37 of Europe’s leading institutes and universities and the project involves managers, researchers and practitioners from a range of government, commercial and research organisations, specialising in aspects of flood risk management. - See also in the project list of the Repository (open the tag "European Projects")
