Model tests on penetration and extration of modified suction caissons in clay

open access: yesYantu 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.

Serviceability of suction caisson founded offshore structures

open access: yesProceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Geotechnical Engineering, 2016
Suction caissons have recently been considered as a cost-effective alternative to conventional foundations for offshore met masts and wind turbines. Such foundation arrangements are suitable for applications within water up to 20 m deep. Most offshore structures have stringent serviceability limits imposed on their design dictating the allowable ...

Suction caissons for wind turbines

open access: yes, 2005
Suction caissons may be used in the future as the foundations for offshore wind turbines. We review recent research on the development of design methods for suction caissons for these applications. We give some attention to installation, but concentrate on design for in-service performance.

Suction Caisson Foundations for Offshore Wind Turbines

open access: yesWind 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

Physical Modelling of Offshore Wind Turbine Foundations for TRL (Technology Readiness Level) Studies

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
Offshore wind turbines are a complex, dynamically sensitive structure due to their irregular mass and stiffness distribution, and complexity of the loading conditions they need to withstand.

Installation of suction caissons and formation of soil plug considering variation of permeability of sand

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2019
During the installation of suction caissons, there exists the phenomenon of soil plug inside the anchor, which will hinder the further penetration of the anchor.
