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

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

Penetration and Pullout Capacity of Low-Skirted Suction Caissons
Shock 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.
