The research focuses on the complex stratification of the seabed, which is consistent with real marine geological conditions. This article presents the effects of four parameters&mdash:seabed shear modulus, permeability coefficient, porosity, and saturation&mdash:on the distribution of excess pore water pressure within the seabed by internal solitary waves (ISWs). Additionally, the changes in excess pore water pressure distribution in layered seabed are analyzed. The findings indicate that increases in saturation and permeability coefficient lead to deeper penetration of excess pore water pressure into the seabed by ISWs. Conversely, the effects of shear modulus and porosity are relatively minor and inversely related to the depth of influence of excess pore water pressure. When stratification occurs in the permeability coefficient and saturation of the seabed, significant alterations are observed in the downward propagation of excess pore water pressure. Saturation stratification exhibits similar effects, with soil layers exhibiting higher saturation levels being more conducive to the transmission of excess pore water pressure by ISWs. These research findings hold substantial implications for assessing seabed liquefaction and surface erosion processes induced by ISWs.
