Overview

Numerical model reveals artificial reefs reduce liquefaction in coastal areas, indicating potential design guidance.

Key Points

  • This research investigates the effectiveness of artificial reefs in mitigating seabed liquefaction caused by gravity waves.
  • Developed a numerical model to simulate wave-induced dynamic response of the seabed
  • Analyzed the impact of artificial reef designs on local flow fields and sediment response
  • Conducted parametric studies on reef geometry and spatial arrangements
  • Artificial reefs significantly alter flow fields, inducing upwelling and enhancing turbulence
  • Reefs reduce excess pore pressure and increase effective stress, suppressing liquefaction
  • Cubic reef units in staggered layouts reduced maximum liquefaction depth by up to 73.5%
