Vertical Stiffness Functions of Rigid Skirted Caissons Supporting Offshore Wind Turbines

Suction Bucket Jackets (SBJs) need to be fundamentally designed to avoid rocking modes of vibration about the principal axes of the set of foundations and engineered towards sway-bending modes of tower vibration. Whether or not such type of jackets exhibit rocking modes depends on the vertical stiff...
