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

Upper Bound Solutions for Uplift Ultimate Bearing Capacity of Suction Caisson Foundation

open access: yesChina Ocean Engineering, 2019
Suction caisson foundation derives most of their uplift resistance from passive suction developed during the pullout movement. It was observed that the passive suction generated in soil at the bottom of the caisson and the failure mode of suction caisson foundation subjecting pullout loading behaves as a reverse compression failure mechanism. The upper

Long-Term Lateral Cyclic Response of Suction Caisson Foundations in Sand

open access: yesJournal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering - ASCE, 2013
AbstractSkirted gravity base foundations and suction caisson foundations are considered as viable alternatives to monopile foundations for offshore wind turbines. While recent work has focused on the monotonic moment-rotation response for shallow foundations, the cyclic response and the accumulation of rotation over the life of the turbine must also be

Design considerations of suction caisson foundations for offshore wind turbines in Southern China

open access: yesApplied Ocean Research, 2020
Abstract Suction caisson foundations are increasingly considered as a foundation solution for offshore wind farm development in China. This paper outlines the design considerations for developing a suction caisson supported jacket solution for an offshore wind farm in Southern China. Geotechnical analyses for four major aspects, ultimate limit state (

Bearing behavior and accumulated rotation of modified suction caisson (MSC) in saturated sand under cyclic loading

open access: yesRock and Soil Mechanics, 2021
Modified suction caisson is a new type of suction foundation for offshore wind power engineering. Model tests were carried out to investigate the variation of cumulative rotation angle and its influencing factors of the regular suction caisson (RSC) and

Model tests on uplift bearing capacity of gravitational reinforced composite suction caisson foundation

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2020
As the anchoring foundation of the tension leg platform (TLP), the suction caisson foundation is mainly subjected to the vertical pullout loads. The uplift bearing capacity of caisson is only composed of the internal and external frictions and caisson ...

Penetration and Pullout Capacity of Low-Skirted Suction Caissons

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2021
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.
