Numerical Analysis on Bearing Capacity of a Suction Bucket in Clay [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Korean Geotechnical Society, 2011
Suction buckets have been widely used for offshore structures such as anchors for floating facilities, and the foundations of offshore wind energy turbines. However, the design guidelines for suction buckets have not been clearly suggested. Therefore, this study performed the numerical analysis by using ABAQUS (2010) to evaluate bearing capacities and ...

Penetration and Pullout Capacity of Low-Skirted Suction Caissons

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2021
The bearing capacity of suction caissons is the key to the design of offshore structures. A new type of cross-shaped low-skirted suction caisson is invented to effectively improve the bearing capacity, considering inevitable “soil plug” phenomenon.

Formulas for Uniaxial Capacities of Tetrapod Bucket Foundations Considering Group Effects in Undrained Clay

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Suction bucket foundation is a novel and cheaper foundation used in marine structures, such as offshore wind turbines, breakwater and oil platforms. Compared with a single bucket foundation, tetrapod bucket foundations can bear larger loads because of ...
