Vertical bearing capacity of bucket foundations in sand
Ocean Engineering, 2016Abstract Bucket foundations are widely used to support offshore structures. The vertical capacity of bucket foundations in clays has been extensively studied. However, the unique load transfer characteristics of bucket foundations in sands are not well documented.

Response of Cyclic-Loaded Bucket Foundations in Saturated Dense Sand
Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 2017Abstract: One of the major concerns of designing offshore wind turbine foundations is to address the effects of cyclic loading coming from, especially, wave loading. This paper describes the results from a test series on a small-scale mono bucket foundation installed in water-saturated dense sand exposed to cyclic loading with 1.0 Hz. A macro model has

Instability of Bucket Foundations during Installation
2011The bucket foundation is an upcoming technology for offshore wind turbines. The bucket foundation is a large cylindrical monopod foundation constructed as a thin steel shell structure. A bucket foundation does not require heavy installation equipment since it is installed by suction forces.

Characteristic Behavior of Bucket Foundations
2012The world is currently facing serious problems brought about by oil dependence. Reducing oil consumption provides an opportunity to increase competitiveness,technological development, and progress. Wind energy is currently the most cost-competitive form of renewable energy, and there are strong political and industrial forces(particularly in northern ...

Dynamic response of a single and a 4-bucket foundations
2010This paper presents a centrifuge study of the dynamic response of a single bucket foundation and a 4-bucket foundation in a silty sand under cyclic lateral loads. The ice-sheet induced structural vibration was simulated as an equivalent cyclic lateral load applied by an electro-magnetic actuator. The effects of load intensity and foundation rigidity on

An Innovative Physical Model for Testing Bucket Foundations
2012Monopod bucket foundations promise to become a reliable and cost-effective solution for offshore wind turbines. In this paper, six small scale tests of a steel bucket foundation subjected to quasi-static lateral load, are presented. When conducting small scale experiments on soil, scale effects can considerably affect the tests outcome.
