Meet the teamIn this research programme, we have combined the expertise of three universities and seven different research groups within these universities. Twelve PhD and five Post-doc researchers are involved in the research programme. They aim to gain insight in the behaviour of the multifunctional flood defences during extreme storms. Involved universities are Delft University of Technology, Wageningen University and University of Twente.
