Model tests on penetration and extration of modified suction caissons in clay
Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2020 A series of model tests are conducted to investigate the installation and extraction behavior of the modified suction casson(MSC) embedded in marine clay by taking the MSC dimensions, shear strength of clay and installation method into account.

Suction Caisson Foundations for Offshore Wind Turbines
Wind Engineering, 2002 This paper outlines a £ 1.5m, three year, research project that commenced during the middle of 2002 to determine a design framework for shallow foundations for offshore wind turbines. The shallow foundations in focus are suction-installed skirted foundations otherwise known as suction caissons (Houlsby and Byrne, 2000). There are eight distinct themes

Suction Caisson Foundations for Offshore Wind Turbines and Anemometer Masts
Wind Engineering, 2000 We describe briefly some of the challenges met by the designers of the foundation systems for offshore wind energy developments. Although some experience from the offshore oil and gas industry proves valuable, the size and nature of typical wind turbines means that the loadings on the foundations are quite different from those encountered previously ...

Drained Behaviour of Suction Caisson Foundations on Very Dense Sand
Offshore Technology Conference, 1999 Abstract Alternatives to piled foundations, such as suction caissons, are becoming increasingly viable options for fixed platforms, particularly in the development of marginal fields. Whilst pile design procedures evolved smoothly from onshore experience and theory, design of shallow foundation systems has had to be

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.

Soil conditions and bounds to suction during the installation of caisson foundations in sand [PDF]
Ocean Engineering, 2014 Suction installation of caisson foundations is widely adopted in the oil offshore industry. When such foundations are installed in sand, seepage conditions are known to play a pivotal role in the installation process. Pressure gradients generated by the imposed suction inside the caisson cavity cause an overall reduction in the lateral soil pressure ...
