This paper reports the behaviour of caisson anchors under vertical-horizontal (VH) loadings
in medium dense to dense sand. The three dimensional finite element (3D-FE) analyses are …

Despite the high cost-effective potential of using suction caisson anchors for mooring
floating facilities for harvesting various marine resources, it is not being considered in sites …

In this study, a series of three-dimensional small-strain analyses are carried out to explore
the combined capacity of bucket foundations in soft-over-stiff clay under general loading. It …

Bridge failure is mostly caused by geotechnical failure. Because caissons are the automatic
choice for foundation systems for marine structures, such as bridges and wind turbines, this …

This paper reports the lateral–moment bearing capacity of bucket foundations under lateral
loading in sand. The Modified Mohr-Coulomb (MMC) model is adopted to capture the …

Passive resistance offered by soil to any embedded structure has been of significant interest
to researchers since the inception of the concept. The present study deals with the …

In this study, three models of offshore wind turbine (OWT) foundations are thoroughly
examined using 10 geotechnical centrifuge tests. These models include ordinary suction …

As anchors of floating offshore structures, suction caissons endure cyclic loads transmitted
by mooring chains. The moving chains repeatedly cut into the seabed, triggering the …

This paper presents a straightforward framework for developing failure envelopes
specifically tailored to the caisson foundations of offshore wind turbines (OWTs) under …

With the development of offshore wind turbines in deep water, suction caisson foundations
jointly used with jackets have become a promising foundation type for those constructed in …
