Numerical Buckling Analysis of Large Suction Caissons for Wind Turbines on Deep Water

, 2013
Using large suction caissons for offshore wind turbines is an upcoming cost-effective technology also referred to as bucket foundations. During operation, the monopod bucket foundation is loaded by a large overturning moment from the wind turbine and the

Centrifuge tests on a soil plug removal method for suction caisson during installation

Applied Ocean Research
The suction caisson is one of the most widely adopted foundation systems for supporting offshore wind turbines and anchoring floating platforms. During suction-assisted installation, the soil inside the caisson may heave and form a soil plug that ...
