Abstract
Highlights
•Suction caissons are often subjected to cyclic lateral loads caused by the action of wind or waves.
•Excessive lateral deformations may be induced during a caisson’s service life.
•Results of performance measure parameters for caissons harmonically oscillating on homogeneous soil are reported.
•The equations are expressed in terms of logarithmic and polynomial models.
