Abstract

AbstractA two-dimensional (2D) porous model was developed to investigate the accumulation of pore pressure in marine sediments in which the volume-averaged Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (VARANS) equations were used as the governing equations for the wave motion and the Biot consolidation theory was used for the porous seabed. Unlike most of the previous investigations on the accumulation of pore pressure in which the amplitude of the shear stress over the wave period was used in the source term, in this study, the source term was redefined as a time-dependent function using the phase-resolved oscillatory shear stresses. Overall good agreement of both the oscillatory and residual pore pressures with previous analytical solutions and experimental data demonstrated the reliability of the model for the prediction of wave-induced pore-pressure accumulation. For the case with progressive wave loadings, the liquefaction zone related to the initial incident of the wave phases was formed as a 2D pattern during t...
