Case studies on suction caisson foundations in offshore wind farms in China
International Journal of Geotechnical Engineering, 2020Suction caissons are cylindrical-shaped foundation elements closed at the top and open at the bottom which are almost completely embedded with their cylindrical part in the soil.

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.

Installation of Bucket Foundations and Suction Caissons in Sand - Geotechnical Performance
Offshore Technology Conference, 1999Abstract This paper describes the important geotechnical principles relating to the installation of bucket foundations in dense sand, where 'suction' pressures are applied to both increase the static driving force, and more importantly, to degrade the penetration resistance. The paper will present a series of finite

Numerical Simulation of Cone Penetration Tests Inside Suction Caisson Foundations in Sand
Volume 10: Offshore Geotechnics, 2020Abstract 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 ...

Suction Caisson Foundation Design for Vortex-Induced Vibration Loading
All Days, 2003Abstract Vortex induced vibration (VIV) can be an important source of loading on deepwater production structures, and one that is drawing increased attention in recent times. The fact that cyclic loading due to VIV can be an important foundation design issue is discussed for the first time in this paper.

Numerical Simulation of Ultimate Capacity of Suction Caisson Foundations by FEM
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2012As a newly developed type of foundation for deep water offshore and marine engineering, the suction caisson is usually subjected to combined loading of vertically uplift load, horizontal load and moment. Performance evaluation and design theory for such a new type of foundation can not meet the basic requirements of engineering practice sufficiently at

Suction Caissons as Multipod OWT Foundations in Clay: Investigation of Loading Rate Effects
Volume 9: Ocean Renewable Energy, 2021Abstract The paper elaborates on the bearing mechanics of suction caissons serving as the foundation system of offshore wind turbines (OWTs) supported on jacket structures. As axial loading governs foundation design in this configuration, the study proceeds to a numerical investigation of the tensile load carrying capacity of a suction ...
