Abstract: This paper presents centrifuge data from model footing tests on dry sand, where a high resolution optical displacement measurement technique was employed to record subsurface soil displacements beneath the centerline of ...

Abstract: This paper describes a series of centrifuge model tests designed to assess the increase in capacity of dynamic anchors due to setup in normally consolidated clay. The tests involved measurement of the vertical capacity of ...

Abstract: Suction caissons have recently been considered as potential anchoring solutions for floating renewable devices (wind turbines and wave energy converters) in shallow waters, where—unlike for floating oil and gas applications ...

Abstract: Plate anchors have become an attractive technology for anchoring offshore floating facilities such as floating renewable energy devices because they provide high holding capacity relative to their dry weight. This allows ...
