Vertical and horizontal dynamic response of suction caisson foundations

open access: yesStudia 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

Serviceability of suction caisson founded offshore structures

open access: yesProceedings 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 ...

Seismic Behavior of Suction Caisson Foundations

open access: yes, 2019
Increasing population growth requires more sustainable development of energy. This non-contaminated energy has an inexhaustible energy source. One of the vital parameters in such structures is the choice of foundation type. Suction caissons are now used extensively worldwide for offshore wind turbine.

Numerical Simulation on Anchored Load-Bearing Characteristics of Suction Caisson for Floating Offshore Wind Power

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Suction caisson anchor foundations have been widely applied in oil and gas platforms but remain in the exploratory stage for floating offshore wind power applications, where research on their anchor load-bearing characteristics is insufficient.

Effects of relative densities on mechanical characteristics of interface between sand and suction caisson during penetration

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2022
Suction caissons are popular for mooring oil and gas platforms and fixing wind turbines. The penetration resistance is mainly the friction between the inner and outer walls during suction penetration in sand.

Modelling suction caisson installation in sand using FLAC3D

open access: yes, 2014
Suction caisson foundations have been very popular in oil and gas industry and the current trend is to extend their use to offshore wind farms. A suction caisson is an upturned 'bucket' of cylindrical shape made from steel.

Model tests on penetration and extration of modified suction caissons in clay

open access: yesYantu 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.
