Statement: Series of laboratory experiments using gas hydrate triaxial appartus was carried out for different sands with varying particle characteristics. The data was analysed using well established soil mechanics models to describe the mechanical behaviour of these materials in order to capture the essential difference between them under similar gas hydrate saturation, porosity and effective stress conditions.
