Investigations of suction caissons in dense sand
Offshore structures are used in a variety of applications ranging from the traditional oil and gas extraction facilities to emerging renewable energy concepts. These structures must be secured to the seabed in an efficient and cost effective manner. A novel approach is to use shallow inverted buckets as foundations, installed by suction, in place of ...

Vertical dynamic impedance of suction caissons
Abstract Nowadays, suction caissons are being increasingly deployed as foundations to support offshore wind turbines (OWTs). Due to the overturning moment induced by waves and wind, vertical forces are the dominating ones acting on these foundations.

Pile-Soil Interaction in Unsaturated Soil Conditions [PDF]
The degree of saturation has been proven to significantly affect geotechnical engineering designs for foundations. The changes in water content will influence the way the soil behaves, including its strength and stiffness parameters.

Seismic Behavior of Suction Caisson Foundations
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.

Application of Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction: A Narrative Review
While POCD diagnosis currently relies on subjective assessments and lacks objectivity, MRI provides an objective means to visualize related brain changes (structural MRI being the current routine standard). Advancing to multiple MRI modalities holds promise for enabling early detection and intervention.

Experimental Investigations of the Cyclic Response of Suction Caissons in Sand
Abstract Suction caissons are a relatively new design concept being considered for use as foundations in a wide variety of offshore applications. Unlike many other offshore developments, there is no onshore equivalent of suction caissons to use in the development of design guidelines.
