Following the good experience during the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.svasek.nl\/en\/project\/current-forecasts-dutch-olympic-sailing-team-qingdao-china\/\">Olympic Games 2008 in Qingdao<\/a>, Sva\u0161ek Hydraulics has again provided current forecasts to the Dutch Olympic sailing team.\r\n\r\nTo provide accurate current predictions Sva\u0161ek Hydraulics has used it\u2019s in house developed existing numerical flow model of the North Sea (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.svasek.nl\/model-onderzoek\/finel\/\">FINEL<\/a>). The local grid spacing of the model is adjusted in the sailing area to obtain detailed current patterns in the area of interest.\r\n\r\nTo calibrate the model, current measurements have been done by Sva\u0161ek Hydraulics. These measurements have been performed with an ADCP, fixed to a vessel. Both the velocity and direction of the flow over the full water depth has been measured. The FINEL2D current model is consequently successfully validated with the current data.\r\n\r\nWith the validated model Sva\u0161ek Hydraulics provided surface current forecasts at a ten minute interval during the 470 World Championships 2010. These forecasts assisted the Dutch team, consisting of Lobke Berkhout and Lisa Westerhof, to win the race and to become World Champions in 470 class."},"slider":[{"image":2467,"video":""},{"image":2469,"video":""},{"image":2471,"video":""},{"image":2473,"video":""},{"image":2475,"video":""}],"expert_guy":{"left":{"title":"More information?","content":"Please contact Marloes van den Boomgaard.","linkedin_link":"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/marloes-van-den-boomgaard-5159056\/","email":"boomgaard@svasek.nl"},"right":{"title":"Marloes van den Boomgaard","designation":"Project leader","photo":1074}},"cta":{"title":"MORE INFORMATION ABOUT SVA\u0160EK OR OUR EXPERTISES?","text":"Please contact us or make an appointment.","link":{"title":"CONTACT US","url":"https:\/\/www.svasek.nl\/en\/contact\/","target":""}},"custom_links":{"linked_url":""},"hide":[]},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.svasek.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project\/2476","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.svasek.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.svasek.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/project"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.svasek.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2467"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.svasek.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2476"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.svasek.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2476"},{"taxonomy":"project_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.svasek.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project_category?post=2476"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
