In 2012 verloren we Jean Jacques Peters, voormalig ingenieur van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium (1964 tot 1979) en internationaal expert in sedimenttransport, rivierhydraulica en -morfologie. Als eerbetoon aan hem hebben we potamology (http://www.potamology.com/) gecreëerd, een virtueel gedenkarchief dat als doel heeft om zijn manier van denken en morfologische aanpak van rivierproblemen in de wereld in stand te houden en te verspreiden.

The present work aims to demonstrate the accuracy of SPH to quantify the wave forces on coastal defences such as storm return walls. The SPH-based DualSPHysics code is employed to generate and propagate waves and to study the wave impact on the structure. First, the numerical model has been validated using physical model test data in terms of water surface elevation and wave forces showing a very good agreement with relatively short time series of random waves. Once wave loading on coastal structures is proven to be accurately reproduced by DualSPHysics, several numerical improvements are introduced to increase the numerical efficiency. First, variable resolution was considered to use higher resolution in a region, while the rest of the numerical domain was solved using coarse refinement. On the other hand, surface wave and velocity field from deep water can be accurately and more efficiently simulated using a wave propagation model coupled with DualSPHysics. Validations and computational times of all the presented numerical approaches are compared and discussed.
