Abstract
Wave damping and motion of clay beds are measured in a wave tank for various soil and wave conditions. The propagator matrix theory for continuously layered plasto‐elastic beds is used to model the wave‐soil interactions. In most cases, the theory agrees well with the experimental results. Wave damping and bed motion increase nonlinearly with wave height. Wave damping mechanism of clay beds is the Coulomb friction between grains. Model‐prototype scaling examples are made for application of the model data to design situations.Keywords
