Abstract
    The European inland waterway network is under investigation. Solving missing links between waterways in different countries (e.g. Seine-Scheldt West) and upgrading of existing waterways for larger vessels are two main project types that require a solid fundamental background about the behaviour of inland vessels in shallow and confined water. During the last three years Flanders Hydraulics Research (FHR) has been investing in experimental research in the Towing Tank for Manoeuvres in Shallow Water (co-operation FHR – Ghent University) and an inland navigation simulator so that mathematical models and real-time simulation techniques can be combined for the evaluation of inland waterway design.
