Funded Activity Summary

Coupling models for ocean waves, groundwater and porous seabeds interaction. The ocean waves, groundwater flow and porous seabeds interaction problem is vital for erosion control, saltily and biological activities in coastal regions. Most previous research has investigated the problem from individual aspects, rather than a coupling concept. In this study, we will develop advanced theoretical models for procedures of waves propagation, water table fluctuations and soil behaviour in a porous seabed, and couple them in a model. A series of experiments will be conducted for the verification of the theoretical findings. The research outcomes will provide a better understanding of the interaction between ocean wave, groundwater flow and porous seabeds.
