| Abstract | The composite bucket foundation (CBF) is a new type of the offshore wind turbines, which can be adapted to the loading characteristics and development needs of offshore wind farms due to its special structural form. There are seven compartments divided inside the CBF by steel bulkheads, which are arranged in a honeycomb structure. The six peripheral rooms with the skirt have the same proportions while the middle orthohexagnal one is a little larger. With the seven-room structure, the CBF has reasonable motion characteristics and towing reliability during the wet-tow construction process. Through extensive research into the load bearing characteristics of CBF, for an offshore 3-MW CBF designed on the basis of given geological and hydrological conditions, the load bearing range was calculated, and its operation safety was assessed. |
