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.
Het merendeel van z’n werk hebben we toegankelijk gemaakt via onderstaande zoekinterface.

This report investigates the capabilities of XBeach for long term profile development. Typically cross-shore profile models are just applied to model storm impacts. Within the study an attempt is made to go beyond these common applications by focusing on medium (1 year) to long term applications (10 years). Potential applications include the evaluation of long term profile stability, such as in Knokke, the evolution of a beach or shoreface nourishment, and ultimately the evaluation of coastal retreat due to sea level rise. To this end, firstly the physical processes controlling the profile evolution are identified, secondly the implementation of these processes in XBeach and in Delft3D is reviewed, and finally the capabilities of XBeach are evaluated based on modelling exercises. The study shows promising results and highlights the current bottlenecks to be addressed.
