Abstract: Waves propagating over a permeable seabed will alter the stresses and fluid pressures within the bed and affect the erodibility and stability of bottom sediments. This paper examines the cyclic stresses which occur within ...

Abstract: The stresses created within an elastic model material (gelatin) by a laterally loaded, rigid, finite pile are studied using three-dimensional photoelasticity. Cases of both slip and no-slip conditions at the pile/gelatin ...
