Penetration and Pullout Capacity of Low-Skirted Suction Caissons
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.

Centrifugal experimental study of suction bucket foundations under dynamic loading [PDF]
Centrifugal experiments were carried out to investigate the responses of suction bucket foundations under horizontal and vertical dynamic loading. It is shown that when the loading amplitude is over a critical value, the sand at the upper part around the bucket is softened or even liquefied. The excess pore pressure decreases from the upper part to the

Installation of novel suction bucket foundation with new modular geometry in a large-scale set-up [PDF]
This paper investigates a modular bucket foundation design developed for large offshore wind turbines. Instead of the regular round shape, the modular bucket consists of trapezoidal profiles bolted together and additional stiffeners attached to the ...

Winkler springs for axial response of suction bucket foundations in cohesionless soil
Jacket structures mounted on suction buckets carry potential as cost-efficient foundations for next-generation 10 MW+ offshore wind turbines located in transitional water depths. Given this foundation method, resistance to overturning moment relies mainly on the axial response of the buckets.

Abstract Despite the distinctly different shapes of their tongues, the tongue gross anatomy of Saimaa ringed seal closely resembled that of Baltic ringed seal. There were no differences in the extrinsic and intrinsic tongue muscles or their associated vascularization and innervation between Saimaa and Baltic ringed seals.
