Wind Energy is the one of the most promising renewable energy. Suction bucket foundation is considered to be a viable type of wind turbine foundation. Soil liquefaction caused by earthquakes at offshore seismic active area may lead to a significant degradation of soil strength and stiffness. In this study, nine centrifuge tests were carried out to investigate the seismic response of suction bucket foundation under earthquake loading. Both dry and saturate soil conditions were considered in tests. The geometric design of five suction bucket models considered the bucket diameter, penetration depth, and modified buckets with inside compartments. It was found that soil underlying and near the bucket foundation shown a better ability to resist liquefaction in saturated tests comparing to free field while no significant differences were observed in dry tests. The five bucket models performed quite differently, which demonstrated the aspect ratio effects and inside-bucket compartment effects. The results provide insight into optimized design of suction bucket foundation for wind turbine.
