Benchmark data on lock effects

The Knowledge Centre has released benchmark model data on ship behaviour in or near locks. The data can be used to compare with results from numerical methods and simulation tools.

The data can be obtained by mailing to info@shallowwater.be. A digital version of the benchmark data will then be sent to you along with an accompanying paper describing the experimental set-up.
