Mechanical Characteristics of Hydrate-Bearing Sediment: A Review

Peng Wu et al.

Summary: This review comprehensively summarizes recent mechanical studies on hydrate-bearing sediment (HBS), clarifies the influences of several important parameters on the mechanical behavior of HBS, discusses corresponding particle-level mechanisms, and investigates the influences of hydrate exploitation techniques on the strength and deformation behavior of HBS. The proposed relationships and mechanisms provide insightful guidance for understanding the mechanical behavior of HBS and developing models for predicting the structural evolution of HBS during NGH exploration and exploitation.

Effect of Temperature on the Mechanical Properties of Hydrate-Bearing Sand under Different Confining Pressures

Shi Shen et al.

Summary: Experimental data from mechanical experiments on HBSs at different temperatures and effective confining pressures revealed a significant correlation between the samples' mechanical properties and temperature and effective confining pressure. The strength of HBSs was found to be positively correlated with effective confining pressure and negatively correlated with temperature. Furthermore, the stress-strain behaviors of the samples shifted from hardening to softening with decreasing effective confining pressure and temperature.

Analysis of the mechanical properties of methane hydrate-bearing sands with various pore pressures and confining pressures

Shi Shen et al.

Summary: The study investigated the mechanical properties of methane hydrate-bearing sediments under different pore pressures and effective confining pressures through a series of tests, revealing that the strength of samples increased with increasing pressures. Additionally, factors influencing the failure stress points lines for the samples were identified, including the increase in cohesion with increasing pore pressure.

Salinity effects on the mechanical behaviour of methane hydrate bearing sediments: A DEM investigation

Mingjing Jiang et al.

Summary: The study investigates the effect of salinity on the stability and mechanical response of methane hydrate, using Distinct Element Method to analyze the results at a micro scale. Experimental data verification shows that as salinity increases, shear strength and stiffness of methane hydrate-bearing sediments decrease, while deformation and bond breakage ratio accelerate, providing valuable insights for the safe exploitation of methane hydrate resources in the future.
