Physical model tests were conducted in sandy soil to study the response characteristics of tripod bucket jacket foundations under cyclic loading. The cyclic rotation angle response
natural frequency
and damping ratio of the structure were analyzed. Based on the test results
an empirical prediction formula for the cumulative rotation angle of the foundation was proposed. The results indicate that an increase in cyclic load amplitude accelerates the accumulation rate of the foundation’s rotation angle. In a log-log coordinate system
the cumulative rotation angle of the foundation and the number of load cycles approximately exhibit a linear relationship. The natural frequency of the structure demonstrates a similar pattern of change under different cyclic load amplitudes: initially
there is a slight increase in the natural frequency
followed by a sharp decrease
and it then fluctuates around a certain average value as cyclic loading continues. The system's damping ratio sharply decreases at the beginning of loading
reducing to about 20% of the initial value
and then undergoes significant oscillations
with a variation of up to 80%.
