To conclude with Delta Flume experiments :
Synthesis
Good estimation of wave heights, water level, mean velocitiesand mean concentrations of sediment by FUNBEACH,
Good estimation of bar movement for test 1b,
Poor estimation of bar evolutions for test 1c which highlightsthe interest of estimating correctly the bottom velocities(undertow) to get better morphologic predictions,
Due to long computational time and numerical instabilities forFUNBEACH 2DV, establishing of a method of computation :
Calibration of the 2DV transport model on velocity andconcentrations experimental data,Calibration of the 1DH transport model on the 2DV transportmodel in terms of transport rates,Morphologic evolution calculated with FUNBEACH 1DH.

Introduction Models Deltaume Pentrez Waves and Tide Articial Nourishment Conclusions
To conclude with this numerical study :
Synthesis
The number, the volume, the distance to coastline and thevelocities of bars increase with the wave height.
This response decreases when :
the tide range increases,the wave spectrum width increases,the median grain size increases,the beach slope decreases,the wave period decreases.
Spring-to-spring tidal cycle : morphology is more inuenced byspring tide period.

Synthesis of simulated evolutions
On microtidal beaches :
Before the breaking zone : slight spreading,In the breaking zone : growth,After the breaking zone : large spreading to destruction,Near the shoreline : stability.
On mesotidal and macrotidal beaches :
Before the low-tide breaking zone : slight spreading,In the lower intertidal zone : large spreading to destruction,In the upper intertidal zone : stability.
Inuence of the slope of the articial nourishment :
An articial nourishment with highest slope moves slowest,The wave height is most reduced with articial nourishmentwith highest slope.
56/59
Introduction Models Deltaume Pentrez Waves and Tide Articial Nourishment Conclusions
Practical recommendations of beach nourishments
Bars and berms are the best locations to nourish microtidalbeaches,
The upper intertidal zone is the best location to nourishmesotidal and macrotidal beaches,
Steep nourishments are recommended.
need to be conrmed by further studies.

Conclusions
Development of a new morphodynamic model able toreproduce beach processes :
Wave propagation, wave breaker and bottom friction includingwave ripples, thanks to FUNWAVE model,Undertow and near-bed velocities, thanks to Lynett (2006) andturbulence closure vertical model,Beach evolution and bar movement.
Lynett-Bailard approach (1DH) faster and more accurate thanthe turbulence closure vertical approach (pseudo-2DV).
Inuence of several parameters on beach morphology :
The number, the volume, the distance to coastline and thevelocities of bars increase with the wave height.This response decreases when the tide range, the wavespectrum width and the median grain size increase, and whenthe beach slope and the wave period decrease.
Appropriated locations and forms for beach nourishments havebeen identied.

Prospects
FUNBEACH 1DH and FUNBEACH 2DV + MII to study othereld sites,
Multi-class approach to study grain size evolution of the beach,
Eective 2DV approach : see Lynett and Liu's (2004)multi-layer model,
Account for the longshore component : FUNWAVE 2D =⇒FUNBEACH 2DH and FUNBEACH 3D with a potentialalternative for long term simulations given by a phase-averagedmodel like XBEACH (Roelvink et al., 2008).
