Sediments


With MIKE 11 you are able to investigate sediment transport problems of cohesive and non-cohesive sediments. MIKE 11 is applied for analysing:

  • Long-term morphological changesin the river;
  • Erosion, transport and deposition of contaminated and pulluting sediments;
  • Optimization of capital and maintenance of dredging for e.g. navigation;
  • Sediment management in rivers and reservoirs;
  • River restoration projects.

The sediment transport modules are conveniently divided into three separate modules, which can be applied depending of modelling scope:

  • MIKE 11 ACS for advanced simulation of erosion, deposition and transport of cohesive sediment (clay,silt);
  • MIKE 11 ST for simulation of erosion, deposition and transport of non-cohesive sediment (sand, gravel, boulders...);
  • MIKE 11 GST for simulation of erosion, deposition and transport of graded sediment (clay, silt, sand, gravel, boulders...).
