Suction buckets have been used for more than 30 years in the oil and gas industry and are becoming increasingly popular for offshore structures, such as wind turbines and wave energy converters. For an efficient design of foundations with suction buckets, it is necessary to take into account the site-specific conditions such as water depth, ground conditions and soil-structure interaction.
PLAXIS 3D can help analyse suction buckets by accurately predicting their performance under different loading conditions, optimising their design, and reducing the risk of foundation failure.
This Coffee Corner webinar will provide a practical overview of the potential of PLAXIS 3D to analyse suction buckets. We will cover the following topics:
How PLAXIS 3D can be used to model the behaviour of suction buckets in the ground
The key factors that influence the performance of suction buckets and how these can be taken into account in PLAXIS 3D
How to interpret the results of a PLAXIS 3D analysis to assess the stability and performance of a suction bucket foundation
