Abstract: The wave transformation due to the presence of stratified porous structure lying on flat seabed, elevated seabed, and stepped seabed is analyzed under the oblique wave incidence. The stratified porous structure in the absence and presence of the leeward wall along with the confined region is examined using the matched eigenfunction expansion technique. The direct analytical relations are obtained to examine the wave transformation for the case of long-wave approximations for multilayered porous structure lying on various types of seabed. The wave reflection coefficient, transmission coefficient, energy damping, and wave force on the vertical wall in the presence of stratified porous block are analyzed with variation in the sea-bed characteristics, porosity, friction factor, structural width, and water chamber length. The study shows that the energy damping increases with the increase in the porosity of the seaside porous layer due to the presence of high void spaces. Further, the stratified porous structure shows a considerable impact in decreasing the resonating peaks and troughs for the wave force acting on the seawall. In addition, the stepped seabed is observed to reduce the wave force on the leeward wall as compared with the uniform and elevated seabed in the presence of stratified porous block. 2019, 2019 Japan Society of Civil Engineers.
