Bearing Capacity of Suction Caisson Foundations Using FEM Analysis

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Research, 2011
To understand features of bearing capacity of suction caisson foundation is one of the key issues in design and construction of deep-water marine structures. In this paper, the general-purpose finite element analysis package ABAQUS is employed to conduct three-dimensional numerical analyses on load-carrying features of suction caisson foundation under ...

Study on Uplift Bearing Characteristics of Gravitational Reinforced Composite Suction Caisson Foundation

Arabian Journal for Science and Engineering, 2021
Suction caisson foundations are often subjected to vertical pullout loads, where the uplift bearing capacity of caisson is only composed of the internal and external friction and caisson weight under the drainage condition, hence the uplift bearing capacity is usually small.

A Study on the Vertical Pullout Capacity of Suction Caisson Foundation in Sandy and Clayey Soils

Lecture Notes in Civil Engineering, 2021
This paper presents the vertical pullout behaviour of suction caisson foundation in clayey and sandy soils by means of finite element analysis using PLAXIS 2D under vertical static loading. The effect of caisson aspect ratio (L/D) on pullout capacity and caisson displacement was investigated under drained and undrained loading. The caisson aspect ratio

Decommissioning Analyses for Suction Caisson Foundations

Volume 9: Offshore Geotechnics; Petroleum Technology, 2023
Abstract Suction caisson foundations are an economic alternative to piled foundations to support offshore jackets, especially in situations where there is shallow bedrock. Over the last few years significant advances in the design of suction caissons have developed, leading to a strong increase in installed suction caissons, particularly

Modelling the variation of suction pressure during caisson installation in sand using FLAC3D [PDF]

open access: yesShips and Offshore Structures, 2017
A suction caisson is an upturned ‘bucket’ of cylindrical shape made from steel. This type of foundation has been very popular in the oil and gas industry and the current trend is to extend its use to offshore wind farms. Seepage conditions play a pivotal

Application of Suction Caisson Foundations in the Gulf of Mexico

Offshore Technology Conference, 1998
Abstract In the last decade, use of suction caissons (suction piles) has increased in offshore arena. Suction caissons have the appearance of inverted buckets with sealed tops and are installed by pumping water out of them.

Seismic Behavior of Offshore Wind Turbine with Suction Caisson Foundation

Geo-Congress 2014 Technical Papers, 2014
Offshore wind energy plays a major role in the long-term goal of relying on renewable energy. The demand for offshore wind energy is increasing rapidly in the world. However, the construction of offshore wind farm in seismic active areas has strict requirements for the foundation selection and design.

Numerical Simulation of Cone Penetration Tests Inside Suction Caisson Foundations in Sand

Volume 10: Offshore Geotechnics, 2020
Abstract Offshore wind is increasingly utilised as a renewable energy source. A growing number of bottom fixed wind turbines installed offshore are supported by suction caisson foundations. The suction-assisted installation remains a source of uncertainty towards the in-service performance due to the unknown post-installation soil plug ...
