A strategy by the Department of Energy set objectives of reducing cost and reducing time to deployment through specific deliverables such as innovative anchor and mooring design for floating offshore systems and hardware design concepts including turbine array grids. This research program proposes and investigates use of suction caissons as combined anchors to resist line loads from multiple platforms as an efficient solution for anchoring a network of wind turbine platforms. Suction caissons are a ‘mature’ anchor technology in the offshore oil and gas industry, yet there is minimal experience with application for offshore wind platforms. Established design methods, standards and recommended practices from the oil and gas industry, serve as a starting point for further adaptation. Considerations of the differences in conditions (e.g. loads, risk, failure and serviceability tolerances) between the two applications, is important for developing efficient anchor design suited to offshore wind platforms. A physical modelling program was developed to investigate the behaviour of caissons subjected to orthogonal cyclic and post-cyclic monotonic line loads, compared to the behaviour of single line loaded caissons. Modeling was performed in a geotechnical centrifuge in order to simulate in-situ stress profile at model scale, as stresses are critical to soil and foundation behavior. Load tests were performed on a model suction caisson anchor installed by jacking into normally consolidated kaolin clay (in-flight). Baseline tests were performed with single line loading for comparison to the multi-line loading tests. Line loads were applied in orthogonal directions for the multi-line load tests. The effect of varying cyclic mean load and cyclic load amplitude was also investigated. Comparison of test results was based on line displacement, applied line load, caisson rotation and internal pore pressure at the underside of the caisson cap. Centrifuge test results appear to indicate that the line load-displacement response during monotonic loading is similar for the multi-line and the single line loaded suction caisson anchors. The post-cyclic peak monotonic line load resistance provided by the caisson loaded in multiple directions was greater than the resistance provided by the caisson loaded in a single direction (accounting for the total resultant load applied). For all selected load cases, the accumulated permanent displacements during the cyclic loading did not result in a displacement (serviceability) failure of the suction caisson nor contribute significantly to the displacement correlating to the peak line load resistance of the caisson. Test results indicate that the resistance capacity of a given caisson is not reduced by applying line loads in multiple directions, when considering the resistance to the total resultant load. Test observations appear to support conceptualizations of a modified “zone of influence” (active/passive earth pressure wedges) due to the changing load orientation from resolving multiple out of phase line loads. iv DEDICATION To my loving and supportive husband Michael Jean To my father whose work ethic and dedication inspires me See-Wing Chung To the loving memory of my late mother Yew-Teck Chung v ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank the Department of Energy for sponsoring this research through the DeepCwind Consortium program. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Dr. Melissa Landon Maynard, for accepting me into this research program and for serving as my advisor throughout my graduate studies. Her dedication to research and development endeavours is nothing short of inspirational, and her many hours of guidance and review work has helped me tremendously throughout this program. I am also thankful for the assistance that I received from Dr. William Davids, Dr. Tom Sandford and Dr. Joe Kelley during my research and studies. I would like to thank all of the staff at the Center for Offshore Foundations at the University of Western Australia. I am particularly appreciative of Dr. Christophe Gaudin, for co- ordinating the centrifuge program, without his expert help this research program would not have been possible. Many thanks also to: Don Herley and Manuel Palacios, for the extended hours of work on the centrifuge operations and the endless patience they had with my unfortunate inexperience; Philip Hortin, Shane De Catania and John Breen for all the instrumentation, electronics, digital systems and general support they provided; Dave Jones for the machinery work and being sympathetic to last minute requests.

  • Gravity-Based Foundations in the Offshore Wind Sector
    Journal of Marine Science and Engineering Review Gravity-Based Foundations in the Offshore Wind Sector M. Dolores Esteban *, José-Santos López-Gutiérrez and Vicente Negro Research Group on Marine, Coastal and Port Environment and other Sensitive Areas, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, E28040 Madrid, Spain; [email protected] (J.-S.L.-G.); [email protected] (V.N.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 27 December 2018; Accepted: 24 January 2019; Published: 12 March 2019 Abstract: In recent years, the offshore wind industry has seen an important boost that is expected to continue in the coming years. In order for the offshore wind industry to achieve adequate development, it is essential to solve some existing uncertainties, some of which relate to foundations. These foundations are important for this type of project. As foundations represent approximately 35% of the total cost of an offshore wind project, it is essential that they receive special attention. There are different types of foundations that are used in the offshore wind industry. The most common types are steel monopiles, gravity-based structures (GBS), tripods, and jackets. However, there are some other types, such as suction caissons, tripiles, etc. For high water depths, the alternative to the previously mentioned foundations is the use of floating supports. Some offshore wind installations currently in operation have GBS-type foundations (also known as GBF: Gravity-based foundation). Although this typology has not been widely used until now, there is research that has highlighted its advantages over other types of foundation for both small and large water depth sites. There are no doubts over the importance of GBS.

Suction Caissons: Model Tests Roy E. Olson and Robert B. Gilbert BRIEF HISTORY OF OFFSHORE STRUCTURES The intent of this introductory section is to provide a brief history of evolution that led to use of suction caissons. It is not intended to deal with offshore structures in general, nor with structures not part of the evolution of suction caissons. Further, views here are those of the authors and may not represent the convoluted manner in which developments typically occur. The early offshore oil production structures were steel frames (Fig. 1), called jackets, which were fixed to the seafloor using open-end steel pipe piles that were driven through the jacket legs and then welded to the jacket. When oil was discovered in the North Sea, the subsoil was generally stiff enough that shallow foundations could be used. This allowed the design to change to gravity platforms (Fig.

  • Caisson Disease1
    CAISSON DISEASE1 BY A. E. BOYCOTT COMPRESSED air has been used for a long time to keep out the water in making tunnels, sinking shafts and the like in watery ground. A rigid metal tube or caisson is driven into the earth and filled with air compressed to the pressure necessary to keep out the water. The mon excavate the earth, fix the lining of the tunnel or the foundations of the bridge, &c, as the case may be, from inside, working in the compressed air. They enter and leave the tube by a small chamber at one end provided with doors, which open on the one hand to outside air and on the other to the compressed air. This 'air-lock' is furnished with taps whereby the pressure within it is first brought to atmospheric pressure; the men then enter, close the door to air, open the cock which is in communication with the caisson, equalize the pressures in the caisson and the air-lock, and then open the other door and so enter the caisson. They leave by following the reverse process. 1 The important literature of caisson disease is contained in, or may bo readily found through, the following:— (1) Paul Bert, La Presslon Varomttriqiie, Paris, 1878. Full account of all the earlier literature with the classical researches of the author. (2) E. H. Snell, Compressed Air Illness, London, 1896.
