Tri-Axial Shear Tests on Hydrate-Bearing Sediments during Hydrate Dissociation with Depressurization

A series of tri-axial shear tests were carried out to determine the stress and strain characteristics, as well as the volume deformation of methane hydrate-bearing sediments during gas hydrate dissociation. An innovative type of depressurization was adopted with a high-pressure and low-temperature t...
