An experimental study aimed at providing insights into the cyclic deformation behavior of saturated marine silt under principal rotation, as induced by wave loading, is presented. Using the GDS hollow cylinder apparatus, a series of undrained tests are performed and the specimens at identical initial states are subjected to combined axial–torsional cyclic loading that imposes different levels of stress rotation. The cumulative generalized shear strain γ<sub>g</sub> is used to describe the deformation of the silt under complex stress paths. The test results show that the cumulative generalized shear strain is significantly dependent on the cyclic stress ratio (CSR) and cyclic loading amplitude ratio δ. The cumulative generalized shear strain increases with the increase in CSR and decreases with the increase in δ. The development trend of γ<sub>g</sub> can be well predicted through the correct Monismith model in the non-liquefaction silt, with a low error that is generally less than 10%.
