Nonlinear 3D finite element analysis of suction caisson-tower-soil system subjected to horizontal earthquake excitation
Suction caissons are widely used as a promising alternative foundation for offshore structures under variable offshore environments. In this paper, a three-dimensional finite-element model which takes into account soil inelasticity was used to study the seismic behavior of a suction caisson in clay...
