Investigations of suction caissons in dense sand
, 2000 Offshore structures are used in a variety of applications ranging from the traditional oil and gas extraction facilities to emerging renewable energy concepts. These structures must be secured to the seabed in an efficient and cost effective manner. A novel approach is to use shallow inverted buckets as foundations, installed by suction, in place of ...

Vertical dynamic impedance of suction caissons
Soils and Foundations, 2019 Abstract Nowadays, suction caissons are being increasingly deployed as foundations to support offshore wind turbines (OWTs). Due to the overturning moment induced by waves and wind, vertical forces are the dominating ones acting on these foundations.

Inclined Capacity of Suction Anchor in Soft‐Stiff‐Soft Clay
Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.This study reports the behavior of suction anchors in soft‐stiff‐soft clay subjected to inclined vertical–horizontal (V–H) loading. Three‐dimensional finite element numerical analyses were carried out to explore the behavior of suction anchors under V–H loading, considering various influencing factors.

Moral Risk in Marketised Medicine
Ratio, Volume 38, Issue 4, Page 239-247, December 2025.ABSTRACT We hope that doctors will recommend and provide the most appropriate investigations and treatments. I argue that some ways of structuring medical provision—mostly, those involving markets—impose a risk of overprovision. This is bad financially, medically, and epistemically, and therefore morally.

Seismic Behavior of Suction Caisson Foundations
, 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.
