Elasticity and Stability of Clathrate Hydrate: Role of Guest Molecule Motions
Abstract Molecular dynamic simulations were performed to determine the elastic constants of carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) hydrates at one hundred pressure–temperature data points, respectively. The conditions represent marine sediments and permafrost zones where gas hydrates occur. The shea...
