Wave-current laboratory experiments have shown that the logarithmic current profile observed in pure current flows is modified due to the presence of waves. When waves propagate opposite the current, an increase in the current intensity is achieved near the mean water level, while a reduction is obt

A standing wave in front of a seawall may reach a height more than twice of its incident component. When excess pore pressure occurs, it may even induce seabed instability, hence endangering the structure. This issue was studied previously using only linear wave theory. In this paper, standing-wave
Most previous investigations for the wave-induced soil response have only considered the quasi-static soil behavior under linear wave loading. However, it is expected that the dynamic soil behavior and wave non-linearity will play an important role in the evaluation of waveinduced seabed response. I
