Offshore wind energy is considered as one of the most promising resources of clean and
renewable energy to replace fossil fuels. Additionally, its cost is expected to be lower than …

The micro-mechanism of mooing depth effect on the interactions between suction piles and
granular soil remains unclear. This study investigates suction pile-soil interaction behaviour …

In the present study, technical challenges and their corresponding solutions for each type of
foundation—gravity-based, monopile, jacket, tripod, and suction bucket—used in wind …

Suction caisson has been widely used as the foundation for the offshore wind turbines. The
behaviors of suction caisson under lateral loading caused by the combined effects of wind …

The micro-mechanism of interaction between the suction pile and granular soil under the
inclined pulling load of mooring lines remains unclear. This study investigated suction pile …

The micro-mechanism of interactions between suction buckets and granular soil under
different embedded lengths remains unclear. This study investigates the micro-to-macro …

Offshore wind turbines (OWTs) are situated in intricate marine environments and
consistently subjected to cyclic loadings, leading to an accumulation of foundation …

The dynamic complex system formed during the construction process of an offshore wind
turbine foundation lifting and lowering plays one of the leading roles in the construction …

Previous suction bucket-soil interaction simulations usually apply fixed loads on suction
buckets as the action of mooring lines, ignoring the contact behaviors between mooring …

The secant piled-bucket foundation (SPBF) is innovatively proposed to suit the large-
capacity mainstream, which is optimized from a traditional foundation and consists of an …
