Resumen
To investigate the vertical migration response of fine sediments, the pore pressure response of the silty seabed under the action of waves was tested. Under the action of waves, there is an obvious pumping phenomenon in the sludge accumulated by pore pressure. The excess pore water pressure caused by the waves in the seabed is unevenly distributed with respect to depth and there is an extreme value of up to 1.19 kPa. The pressure affects the liquefaction properties of the sludge. According to instantaneous-liquefaction judgment, the liquefaction of surface soil occurs, but the soil is not completely liquefied. Using theoretical calculations, the vertical source supply of floating mud development was analyzed. The pumping effect of the wave-induced excess pore pressure manifests in two aspects, as follows: (1) The centralized migration of splitting channels, which is visible to the naked eye, and (2) the general migration of fine particles between particle gaps at the mesoscopic level, which accounts for up to 22.2% of the migration of fine particles.
