Vertical and horizontal dynamic response of suction caisson foundations
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
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
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.

Modelling suction caisson installation in sand using FLAC3D
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
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.

Soil conditions and bounds to suction during the installation of caisson foundations in sand [PDF]
Suction installation of caisson foundations is widely adopted in the oil offshore industry. When such foundations are installed in sand, seepage conditions are known to play a pivotal role in the installation process.
