The Seepage and Soil Plug Formation in Suction Caissons in Sand Using Visual Tests
The rapid development of offshore wind energy in China is becoming increasingly relevant for movement toward green development. This paper presents the results of visual tests of a suction caisson used as foundation for offshore wind turbines. The distribution of hydraulic gradients of sand at the m...
