Silty Soil

Storm waves tend to cause seabed liquefaction by exerting strong cyclic loads on the seabed of the Yellow River Delta. In order to study influences of different wave heights on liquefaction depth of the soil bed, silty soil taken from the Yellow River Delta is used to prepare a soil bed for flume experiments and local parts of superficial soil layer were disturbed by hand. The weakened soil tended to liquefy and slide under wave actions and the liquefaction depth increased with the increasing of wave height. Based on the experimental results, an empirical relationship was proposed between liquefaction depth of silty soil bed and wave height under experimental conditions.

The Yrd

The silty seabed in the Yellow River Delta (YRD) is exposed to deposition, liquefaction, and reconsolidation repeatedly, during which seepage flows are crucial to the seabed strength. In extreme cases, seepage flows could cause seepage failure (SF) in the seabed, endangering the offshore structures. A critical condition exists for the occurrence of SF, i.e., the critical hydraulic gradient (icr). Compared with cohesionless sands, the icr of cohesive sediments is more complex, and no universal evaluation theory is available yet. The present work first improved a self-designed annular flume to avoid SF along the sidewall, then simulated the SF process of the seabed with different consolidation times in order to explore the icr of newly deposited silty seabed in the YRD. It is found that the theoretical formula for icr of cohesionless soil grossly underestimated the icr of cohesive soil. The icr range of silty seabed in the YRD was 8–16, which was significantly affected by the cohesion and was inversely proportional to the seabed fluidization degree. SF could “pump” the sediments vertically from the interior of the seabed with a contribution to sediment resuspension of up to 93.2–96.8%. The higher the consolidation degree, the smaller the contribution will be.
