Henk Steetzel Email & Phone Number | I have more than 35 years experience in research and consultancy in the broad field of coastal engineering, working more or less continuously as a research & development officer for Dutch Public Works coastal projects. The types of activities include development of computer models and physical modelling. I developed mathematical models on dune erosion, cross-shore/long shore sediment transport and large-scale coastal behaviour. In addition I carried out many physical model investigations (on intra-wave sediment transport, interaction with structures, dike breaching and dune erosion up to a near-prototype scale) to verify these numerical models. This latter resulted also in a PhD. thesis on the process of dune erosion. I combine a sound theoretical insight in coastal engineering with a good practical approach. Based on this I have given advises on suitable coastal protection measures worldwide. I participate in Dutch research programs and am member of several working groups of the Dutch Expert Network on Water safety (ENW). Member of the Working group Coasts (ENW-Coast/Kust)and the group for the new safety regulations (ENW-WBI). I am also member of user committees for a number of STW-projects. I am responsible or highly involved in the design of the improvement of most of the weak spots (Zwakke Schakels) along the Dutch coast. I developed and applied the numerical models that are (and have been) used for the simulation of both the short and long-term behaviour of the (sandy) solutions. Furthermore, I am responsibly/involved in the design of sandy beaches/defences in Lake Markermeer for the western coast of North-Holland (Markermeerdijk), the sandy solution for the north-western part of the Houtribdijk as well as the sandy boundaries of the Marker Wadden. Moreover, I am responsibel for the Building with Nature/EcoShape pilot Houtribdijk
