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.

The hydrodynamics of a ship that are associated with lock entry are described empirically and mathematically. Emphasis is put on the generated translation waves. The six-waves-model of A. Vrijburcht is used to calculate the wave system in the lock. These calculations are compared with empirical data and the six-waves-model is improved in a theoretical and empirical manner. The most significant adjustments to the model are the introduction of speed-dependency, taking account of the ship’s hull shape and of the layout of the lock entrance. The model is compared to experimental results with scale models of a bulk carrier and a container carrier.
