Title

The Effects of Hydrate on the Strength and Stiffness of Sands (NERC grant NE/K00008X/1)

Abstract

This database is from series of laboratory experiments designed to explore the effect of hydrate cementaion on some sands. This dataset is part of NERC Arctic Landslide-Tsunami Project (http://arp.arctic.ac.uk/projects/landslide-tsunami/) and has been presented in International conference and Journal article (under review) namely, 1) Madhusudhan, B.N. and Clayton, C.R.I. (2016) Influence particle size on strength of gas hydrate cemented granular materials. Wuttke, F., Bauer, S. and Sanchez, M. (eds.) In Energy Geotechnics. CRC Press. 742 pp, pp. 445-449. (doi:10.1201/b21938-71). 2) Madhusudhan,B.N, Clayton, C.R.I. and Priest, J.A ‘1 The Effects of Hydrate on the Strength and Stiffness of some Sands’. Under-review in Journal of Geophysical Research – Solid Earth.

Quality and validity

Lineage

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.
