Vertical and horizontal dynamic response of suction caisson foundations
Studia Geotechnica et Mechanica, 2023 In this article, the dynamic response of suction caisson foundations is studied using a three-dimensional finite element model with an absorbing boundary. The adopted formulation is based on the substructuring method. This formulation has been applied to

Model tests on penetration and extration of modified suction caissons in clay
Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2020 A series of model tests are conducted to investigate the installation and extraction behavior of the modified suction casson(MSC) embedded in marine clay by taking the MSC dimensions, shear strength of clay and installation method into account.

Suction caissons for wind turbines
, 2005 Suction caissons may be used in the future as the foundations for offshore wind turbines. We review recent research on the development of design methods for suction caissons for these applications. We give some attention to installation, but concentrate on design for in-service performance.

Serviceability of suction caisson founded offshore structures
Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Geotechnical Engineering, 2016 Suction caissons have recently been considered as a cost-effective alternative to conventional foundations for offshore met masts and wind turbines. Such foundation arrangements are suitable for applications within water up to 20 m deep. Most offshore structures have stringent serviceability limits imposed on their design dictating the allowable ...

Suction Caisson Foundations for Offshore Wind Turbines
Wind Engineering, 2002 This paper outlines a £ 1.5m, three year, research project that commenced during the middle of 2002 to determine a design framework for shallow foundations for offshore wind turbines. The shallow foundations in focus are suction-installed skirted foundations otherwise known as suction caissons (Houlsby and Byrne, 2000). There are eight distinct themes
