In het kader van het Horizonproject DuneFront (23_031) heeft WL zich geëngageerd om in 2026 fysieke modellering uit te voeren met een beweegbaar bed in de grote golfgoot. De proeven zullen worden uitgevoerd door doctoraatsstudenten van de UGent en TU Delft onder begeleiding van professoren van deze universiteiten en onderzoekers van WL.
Het inbrengen van sedimenten in de grote golfgoot is zowel wetenschappelijk als operationeel een uitdaging en daarom is een voorbereidingsproject noodzakelijk. Het huidige project wil een antwoord bieden op de volgende concrete vragen (ism. E&O, WatSed, Kust en focusgroep Sediment):
1. Is het mogelijk om een typisch strandprofiel van de Belgische kust te reproduceren?
2. Wat zijn de benodigde meettechnieken en het meest geschikte materiaal om te gebruiken als sediment in de golfgoot?
3. Wat zijn de meest geschikte reductieschalen voor experimenten met beweegbare bodem in de golfgoot?
Het huidige project heeft synergiën met twee andere lopende projecten: 24_058 “Meettechnieken ‘Stabiliteit’ in golfgoot” en 23_089 SUNDANSE. In deze projecten zullen vergelijkbare instrumenten en methoden worden gebruikt, waardoor er minder nieuwe aankopen nodig zijn. In 2025 moet echter een grote hoeveelheid (enkele honderden kubieke meters) zeer fijn sediment (waarschijnlijk zand) worden verworven dat geschikt is voor gebruik in de grote golfgoot. De eerste schatting voor het verwerven van sediment en eventuele aanvullende meetinstrumenten alsook aanpassingen en automatisatie ervan is 50000 euro.
Aangezien de interne ervaring voor fysische experimenten met sedimenten beperkt is, kunnen externe onderzoekers van UPC Barcelona een belangrijke bijdrage leveren aan een succesvol project.
