Beschreibung des Projekts

Die Gruppe PRO-MUD am Leichtweiß-Institut für Wasserbau der Technischen Universität Braunschweig führt partikelaufgelöste Simulationen des Transports von Sediment in Oberflächengewässern und Küstenbereichen durch. Die in diesen Bereichen vorherrschenden Sedimente sind feinkörnig und kohäsiv und werden gemeinhin als Ton und Schluff bezeichnet. Die Dynamik von kohäsivem Sediment wird durch das Zusammenspiel von gravitativen, elektrostatischen und hydrodynamischen Kräften bestimmt, was hydrodynamische Prozesse gegenüber kohäsionslosen Sedimenten (z.B. Sand und Kies) substantiell verändert. Der Fokus wird dabei auf der Flokkulierung auf Grund von van-der-Waals-Kräften, dem Absetzverhalten, sowie der Erosion in offenen Gerinnen liegen. Dadurch wird ein besseres Verständnis für die Vorhersage der Ausbreitungen von Nähr- und Schadstoffen, die sich an diese Sedimente binden, erzeugt. Die gewonnenen Erkenntnisse sind relevant für die Erforschung von aquatischen Ökosystemen, die Modellierung des globalen Kohlenstoffkreislaufs, die Bindung von CO₂ durch feinkörnige Sedimente und die Erkundung von Kohlenwasserstofffeldern.
