Anton Heinsbroek M.Sc. Ph.D. obtained both degrees at the Civil Engineering Faculty of Delft University of Technology, after which he started working at Deltares (formerly known as Delft Hydraulics) in 1988, where he currently has a position as senior researcher/consultant. He has developed the fluid-structure interaction computer code FLUSTRIN and performed large scale validation experiments in the early 1990s. Together with Dr. Tijsseling and Mr. Lavooij he was awarded for this work with the Vreedenburgh price of the Royal Dutch Institution of Engineers (for the integration of structural dynamics and hydrodynamics). Anton has since then developed the computational core of the water hammer computer code WANDA, which nowadays has an installed base of around 130 licenses. He is currently further extending the WANDA computer code towards the compressible and multi-phase flow domains. He conducted and contributed to numerous projects on the design of pressure surge mitigating devices, trouble shooting in pipeline systems, as well as pumps and valves, control systems, other hydrodynamic analyses, and field measurements. Anton has published 11 conference papers and 1 journal publication and has presented at 10 conferences. He has chaired 4 sessions of several conferences on Pressure Surges and Nuclear Reactor Technology. He has been an overseas member of the technical advisory board of the BHR pressure surges conferences. He gives courses and seminars on pressures surges, on pumps and on valves in Dutch, English and German.
