Tensile loading of model caisson foundations for structures on sand
The viability of multiple footing structures that use suction caisson foundations would be improved if the up-wind leg(s) could resist significant tensile loads. In the particular case of offshore wind turbines, large moments are applied at foundation level by the action of wind and waves on the str...
