Hello all,

I'm trying to simulate the dynamic response of seabed under wave action by using DEM-PFV model.
But I have a problem when I try to numerical the loose seabed under wave action, the pore-pressure can't appear built-up and  liquefaction occurred on seabed (refer to this in paper [1]). According to the paper[1] said, I create a loose seabed (flow.porosity=0.43), and increase the friction angle of sphere(frictionAngle=30). And I find that the fluid shear viscosity is 100 pa.s on the papare[1], but even set it , there is not built-up of pore-pressure occurring.
So I want to ask how to simulate  this phenomenon ? 
Here is my code:
