Undrained Uniaxial Capacities of Suction Bucket Foundations in Rows

Volume 9: Offshore Geotechnics; Honoring Symposium for Professor Bernard Molin on Marine and Offshore Hydrodynamics, 2018
Suction bucket foundations in rows, sunk by self-weight and passive suction, can be used as footings of breakwater, trestle bridge, offshore cofferdam and other structures, and they have a fine application prospect on soft soil for their advantages of good bearing capacities, simple construction, low investment, being reusable and so forth.

Numerical Analysis of Cluster and Monopod Suction Bucket Foundation

Volume 6: Polar and Arctic Sciences and Technology; Offshore Geotechnics; Petroleum Technology Symposium, 2013
Numerical analyses were performed to study the cluster suction bucket foundation performance in comparison with the monopod suction bucket foundation. The possibility of improving the resistance performance of suction bucket foundations by using cluster configuration was studied. Clustered foundations are formed by arranging multiple bucket foundations

Load-bearing behavior of suction bucket foundations in sand

Applied Ocean Research, 2013
Abstract Suction buckets are a promising foundation solution for offshore wind energy systems. The bearing behavior of monopod buckets under drained monotonic loading in very dense and medium dense sand is investigated in this study by means of numerical simulation with the finite element method.

Numerical Investigation of the Installation Process and the Bearing Capacity of Suction Bucket Foundations

Volume 1: Offshore Technology; Offshore Geotechnics, 2015
This paper was developed in cooperation between the TUHH and Overdick GmbH & Co. KG. The goal of the presented work is gaining further knowledge about the installation and bearing behavior of suction bucket foundations for fixed offshore platforms based on sand. Buckets are usually made of steel and consist of a cylinder and a lid at

The Tension Capacity of Suction Bucket Foundations in Sand – A Centrifuge Experimental Study

9th International SUT Offshore Site Investigation Geotechnics Conference Proceedings “Innovative Geotechnologies for Energy Transition”, 2023
This paper presents the results of centrifuge model tests on bucket foundations conducted in clean silica sand to simulate the loading conditions which apply at the windward leg of a three-legged offshore wind turbine jacket structure. Load sharing response between bucket skirt and soil, and the concurrent suction pressure under the bucket lid, was ...

Installation of Bucket Foundations and Suction Caissons in Sand - Geotechnical Performance

Offshore Technology Conference, 1999
Abstract This paper describes the important geotechnical principles relating to the installation of bucket foundations in dense sand, where 'suction' pressures are applied to both increase the static driving force, and more importantly, to degrade the penetration resistance. The paper will present a series of finite

Capacities and failure modes of suction bucket foundation with internal bulkheads

Journal of Ocean University of China, 2017
Suction bucket foundations can be divided into four compartments by cruciform internal bulkheads, thereby yielding better capacity in certain conditions than those without internal bulkheads. As yet, no systematic study has been conducted regarding the effects of cruciform internal bulkheads on the capacities of suction bucket foundations.

On cyclic performance of suction bucket foundations in cohesionless soils

International Journal of Physical Modelling in Geotechnics
An alternative to monopiles to support offshore wind turbines is the use of jacket structures founded on suction buckets. These foundations have been successfully deployed in recent developments and have proven to be a viable foundation concept due to their relatively fast and low-noise installation, as well as their general applicability for a wide ...
